Hi all,
I'd like to setup a WordPress site for a friend, but he has Zero HTML experience and so I'd like to keep it as simple as possible for him.
Currently, the "Insert Post" screen of WordPress is pretty simple, but when it comes to adding images, there's the issue of uploading images, inserting into posts, choosing sizes, alignment, etc.. All of which make sense from a HTML/Content POV, but could be confusing to beginners.
He is currently using a Page in facebook to promote his business and is very comfortable with the way facebook easily lets you create a new (wall) post and attach Image(s) and/or Links. Facebook takes care of where to position/size/upload the image and it becomes very simple for the user (if that's all they want).
So my question is: does any know of an Extension/Plugin/other that would allow me to build a standard WordPress site, but allow him to EASILY (read: like facebook) create posts with Images/Links attached?
Many thanks in advance!

Submission + - Would Bernie Sanders gut NASA spending if he became president? Probably (examiner.com)
Sanders' surge means that interest is merited about his views on particular issues. One case in point is his attitude toward the space program and NASA spending. The answer is not very encouraging for those people who value space exploration.

|Here are some details about my project:
|Accessory, Earrings
|Romantic, Traditional, Casual, Funky, Classic
What materials did you use? Lizbeth cotton thread size 20, hand dyed thread size 20, seed beads size 11/0, 4mm crystal pearls, and earring findings.
WOW! The details in these earrings are breathtaking!
These are just beautiful! I have always wanted to learn to tat. To me it looks like a combination of crochet, macrame' and weaving with shuttles! The only one I don't know how to do is crochet something I plan on learning and have already started teaching myself with a children's kit! (knitting was a no go! LOL!) Is it hard to learn? (tatting that is? ) What would you suggest as far as starting? Are there kits? Someone once taught me to broomstick crochet with a needle made out of a closet rod, and I found it easier to learn from watching than written instructions! I guess some people learn easier that way!
Thanks :) Sounds like you'd enjoy learning to tat! First of all, there's no crocheting technique used in tatting at all, so you don't need to know crochet. All that you need to get started tatting is any tatting shuttle, and some crochet cotton. I recommend a size 10 cotton, or even the larger size 3 cotton to learn how with. My shuttle tatting course here on Craftsy is a convenient way to learn by watching!

If you live in New York City and smelled smoke this morning, don't worry, your building probably isn't on fire: Late Sunday and early Monday, smoke from a forest fire in New Jersey wafted into parts of Manhattan, Staten Island, and Brooklyn
The 30-acre fire, which is now contained but not extinguished, broke out on Sunday in Wharton State Forest, about 90 miles south of Manhattan. New York City's Office of Emergency Management tweeted about the fire early Monday:
Beyond Brooklyn and Staten Island, residents and workers in lower Manhattan have also reported smelling smoke. The odor is expected to stick around through the rest of the day.
Officials are still investigating the cause of the blaze.

Kosciuszko's decision was made for him after his slowest time in qualifying, with all of the other drivers electing to run as far down the order as possible in an effort to avoid sweeping the surface of the road clean.
Qualifying stage winner Mikko Hirvonen is predictably 13th and the last of the World Rally Cars to start.
"It was a very straightforward choice," said the Finn. "The weather's not going to change and you want as much of the loose gravel cleaned away as possible.
"This is the best possible place to start so, right now I know I've done all I can to get the result I want from this event."
Hirvonen added, however, that he did not expect conditions to change too dramatically for the cars immediately before him.
"The times can be pretty similar from anywhere around Jari-Matti [Latvala], who's seventh on the road back to us," said Hirvonen.
The event starts from Guanajuato at 2000 local time, with a stage running straight into the middle of the city and another spectator-pleasing test on the road back to Leon.
The mainstay of the action gets underway on Friday morning.

A suggestion for the BB authors (great plugin BTW): can the Javascript be moved to the footer?
I'm trying to improve page load time. But the BB Plugin puts inline Javascript directly into the header. Is this necessary for plugin operation? If not, may I suggest moving it to the footer (and putting it into a separate .js file)?
For now I hacked bad-behavior-wordpress.php as follows:
add_action('wp_head', 'bb2_insert_head');
add_action('wp_footer', 'bb2_insert_head');
... but I'll change it back if it needs to be loaded in the head.

Texas Writer Takes Home Two Lammys
Benjamin Alire Sáenz back in the spotlight
By Monica Riese,
12:30PM, Tue. Jun. 4, 2013
Congratulations to Benjamin Alire Sáenz, who just won the Lambda Literary Award for gay general fiction for his novel Everything Begins and Ends at the Kentucky Club (Cinco Puntos).
The prize-winning novel is set in El Paso and Juárez, and follows seven stories through the political and personal histories of that border region.
He also won the LGBT children's/young adult award for Aristotle and Dante Discover the Secrets of the Universe (Simon & Schuster) at last night's 25th annual awards show in New York, which honored Augusten Burroughs, John Irving, and Cherrie Moraga.
Sáenz, a faculty member at the University of Texas at El Paso, also won the 2013 PEN/Faulkner Award for Kentucky Club, becoming the first Latino writer to do so.
So this has been quite the banner year for the author, but he's by no means a newcomer; he won an American Book Award in 1992 for Calendar of Dust. And it's about time he got to spend some more time in the spotlight. As PEN/Faulkner judge A.J. Verdelle put it:
"In Everything Begins & Ends at the Kentucky Club, his twentieth published book, Benjamin Alire Sáenz shows how decades working at your craft gives birth to might and mastery. … He presents a rendering of reality that is lush, tender, expansive, inclusive and profound."
And we can't wait to see what's next.

PREVIEWS: "Daredevil," "Uncanny X-Men," & More Marvel Comics On Sale August 3, 2016
Comic Books
Every day in April we will reveal the greatest stories ever told starring a particular character or written/drawn by a particular creator (and throughout the month, you'll get daily chances to vote for NEXT week's lists). These lists are voted on by YOU, the reader!
Here is the list of characters/creators featured so far (along with the rules on how to vote).
Today's list is the Greatest Hank Pym Stories Ever Told!
10. "The Day Ant-Man Failed!" Tales to Astonish #40
Stan Lee and Larry Lieber produced the story and Jack Kirby and Sol Brodsky did the artwork on this tale, where Ant-Man seemingly can't stop a mysterious Hijacker. Of course, as it turns out, it is all part of Hank's plan, including faking appendicitis!
9. "A Matter of Love…and Death!" Marvel Team-Up #59-60
A classic Chris Claremont and John Byrne Team-Up adventure (inks by Dave Hunt) with the villain Equinox trying to kill Spider-Man but instead seemingly kills Yellowjacket. Things turn out right in the end.
8. "The Court Martial of Yellowjacket" Avengers #212-213, 217
Jim Shooter, Alan Kupperberg, Bob Hall and Dan Green produced this memorable moment in Hank Pym's life. Hank had recently decided to rejoin the Avengers when he felt that his wife, the Wasp, was growing tired of him. He figured becoming an Avenger again would excite her. Well, during one battle, Hank was so determined to impress her that he blasted a bad guy right when Captain America was busy trying to talk her down. The Avengers decide to court martial Hank. In #213, Hank basically snaps. He comes up with this asinine idea to create a killer robot that will attack the Avengers during the court martial and he'll save the day and redeem himself in the eyes of his teammates. When his wife tries to stop him from this plan, he strikes her. By the end of the issue, he is no longer an Avenger and no longer married. Nearly every Hank Pym story from this point on referenced this event in Hank's life.
7. Avengers Forever #1-12
Kurt Busiek, Roger Stern, Carlos Pacheco and Jesus Merino delivered this time-travel classic that paired the then "current" Hank Pym along with Hank Pym when he just became Yellowjacket on a team of Avengers plucked from the past, present and future, who have to take on Immortus and the Time Keepers, a powerful group that has been manipulating the Avengers for years. Both Hanks play key roles on the team and when everyone returns to their own time, Yellowjacket from the past manages to escape to the present to cause havoc later on in Busiek's run.
6. "The Unspoken" Mighty Avengers #27-31
During this arc (written by Christos Gage and Dan Slott and drawn by Khoi Pham, Sean Chen, Allen Martinez and Mark Morales) the Avengers battle against an early leader of the Inhumans (the "Unspoken") while Hank Pym discovers that he is the universe's "Scientist Supreme."
The top five is on the next page!
i didn't participate in the voting because I don't have enough Hank Pym stories to pick from. However, I'm surprised that the "wife-beater" story ranked so low (the only one from the list I've read). It's one of the greatest moments in Pym's history, yet a very mediocre tale at best, so perhaps it shows that people sometimes do choose wisely (I'll assume, since I haven't read the rest of the stories on the list).
I'm so glad Stern came in at number one. He did the best job handling Hank's mental problems I've seen ("It takes a strong man to shrink to ant size and not be terrified. I wasn't that strong.").
The West Coast Avengers plotline too–it's a shame Hank's non-costumed "Dr. Pym" ID didn't stick.
#2 was awesome simply for Adams' art. My mind plays perspective tricks in a lot of Atom/Ant-Man stories and doesn't see them as small (we see them in close-up so most stuff around them just looks big)–but Adams really made me register how tiny Hank is.
I liked Avengers Forever. It was continuity porn but well-told. Pacheco's art for the series was very good.
That said, the cover to issue 7 always makes me laugh. Yellowjacket is clearly jumping up and grbbing his ass after someone lit it on fire, like Yosemite Sam in a Bugs Bunny cartoon. "Mah biscuits're burnin'! Mah biscuits're burnin'!" In the background, Giant Man is stretching after just waking up, and the other heroes are striking a pose just because.
It was "Slorenia" Ultron destroyed, not Slovenia. Slorenia was made up for an Iron Man story, while Slovenia is a real place. http://marvel.wikia.com/Slorenia
(Though it wouldn't surprise me if you had typed Slorenia and gotten Autocorrected.)
Thanks, Matthew, I fixed it (and I'll accept that No Prize explanation for the typo ;)).
Isn't Scott Lang that Ant-Man in the Kree-Skrull War?
Kinda surprised nothing from Avengers Academy made the final list.
Isn't Scott Lang that Ant-Man in the Kree-Skrull War?
Nope. He wouldn't be created for another eight years or so.
Dwayne McDuffie's brilliant Beyond! limited series wuz robbed! Henry Pym (as Dr. Pym) positively SHINES on that one!
Pity I'm probably one of the five guys who actually read it…
I didn't fit it on my list, but I'm happy that Hijacker story made it. I read a reprint of it years ago and loved its sheer ridiculousness.
Faking appendicitis has got to be one of the most savvy strategies ever!
@Pedro: I've read it too, and quite liked the book. Thanks for the reminder.
Glad to see WCA Pym get some love. That was my favorite Pym. WCA was underrated I think, probably because Al Milgrom's art was less than stellar.
Some confusion about Hank showing up as Ant-Man during the Kree-Skrull War is understandable, because it had been a long time since he'd been Ant-Man, and in fact that was during his Yellowjacket period.
But he'd already quit the Avengers by then, and when they put out an emergency call for the founding members to show up for some tough decision-making, Hank figured, "Well, I guess that means Ant-Man!" Or at least that's how he explained it at the time. (I dunno if Jan was invited, but she didn't show up. I'm pretty sure Hulk wasn't invited.)
Not surprised it didn't make it, 'cause his mental state was less than heroic, but I also voted for Avengers #161 where Ant-Man takes down Iron Man, Wonder Man, Black Panther, Beast…fun stuff! Great Shooter/Perez issue.
Beyond! was a really fun mini-series, and had pretty great characterization of Hank Pym in it. I might need to dig out the back issues and re-read that one.
That one annoyed me a little, dhole. It was okay in itself, but it was part of a whole string of stories where one person would rather unconvincingly take out the team (Tyrak the Atlantean being the least believable invincible adversary). Shooter's stories hinted that this was a sign of some underlying problem in the team, but nothing came of it.
And despite Hank ending up apparently a permanent villain, he's back a few issues later, apparently cured off-camera. I'm guessing someone in editorial told Shooter to abandon and forsake it fast.
Yellowjacket didn't come forward in time at the end of Avengers Forever. What you're thinking of is when Hank was split into two different personalities, Goliath & Yellowjacket, as a side effect of Kulan Gath's magic.
"And despite Hank ending up apparently a permanent villain, he's back a few issues later, apparently cured off-camera. I'm guessing someone in editorial told Shooter to abandon and forsake it fast."
Doubtful given he was Editor-in-Chief at the time. Also, at l;east part of his wrong doing (the slap) was a miscommunication with the artist, as noted in his blog. Some of the other things he did were serious screw-ups but not true villainy. Pure speculation on my part, but I think he wanted to explore Hank's mental instability a bit further (already pretty obviously there in the first Yellowjacket story and arguably even in the Man in the Ant Hill story) but not necessarily turn him into a villain.
I also loved Avengers 161 and it made me a big Hank Pym fan. A few years later I asked Shooter at a convention why he had turned on the character in the Court Martial story after making him look so strong during his earlier run in #161. Shooter replied that it was because he liked Hank that he had written the Court Martial story – basically you don't feature characters you don't like. Be that as it may, I was very happy with Stern redeeming him just a little later.
For some reason I didn't feel like focussing particularly on Hank's problems (too much) and focussed on more upbeat issues.
I did pick 3 significant issues from Tales to Astonish (debut, first ant-man and first wasp) and the Tales to astonish special.
And the Avengers issue where he assumed the Goliath identity and pushed himself to his limits to save Jan
and the issue he and Jan were trapped in an ant-hill and he got his ant-communication working again.
And the issue of Avengers academy spotlighting him
WCA #7 is still my favorite Hank Pym story.

marked as duplicate by BoltClock♦ Aug 8 '12 at 20:49
This question has been asked before and already has an answer. If those answers do not fully address your question, please ask a new question.
I have no experience with Solr, but Sphinx is easy to install, fast and works great with Thinking Sphinx: http://freelancing-god.github.com/ts/en/indexing.html
There is also a good railscast: http://railscasts.com/episodes/120-thinking-sphinx
This guy gives you some arguments why to go with Sphinx: http://jamesgolick.com/tags/ultrasphinx.html (He uses the Ultrasphinx plugin to connect Rails and Sphinx. I tried both and ended up using Thinking Sphinx)
You can find a comparison of both plugins here: http://reinh.com/blog/2008/07/14/a-thinking-mans-sphinx.html
Solr may be implemented in Java but that is mostly an implementation detail. Sphinx is C++ based; do you know C++? LucidImagination provides a convenient LucidWorks for Solr distribution that will make deployment for those unfamiliar with Java a snap. Ironically, Solr has better Ruby integration than Sphinx. There's acts_as_solr which plugs into ActiveRecord, and at a pure ruby level there are a couple great options as well but that's not your use case. You may be using rails but no matter what your server side language of choice is, you might want to consider using AJAX-Solr and it's got a fantastic demo. Lastly, Solr is definitely a larger project than Sphinx with more history and information out there to help you including my book. LucidImagination offers a free PDF reference guide too.
Although sphinx has craigslist, Solr has http://www.lucidimagination.com/why-lucid/who-uses-lucene-solr
So I think the answer is quite clear.
I tried both, and they're both great. As far as I am concerned, solr requires java (since it's based on lucene), and sphinx doesn't. That's why I go with sphinx unless I have a very good reason to want solr specifically.
My experience has been for small data, thinking sphinx (or ultra) have been an easy search solution to utilize for a developer just looking to get something running. Once the data is larger than say, one hundred thousand rows in the db, then both plugins expose how tightly coupled they are to active record. One then has to balance the delicate dance between when is the sphinx index executed (in cron, in deploy, etc.), how often indexing is run, is delta indexing used, and how much time indexing takes, among other things. Also, once your data gets complicated about how and what results should be exposed in search, you start to feel like the customizability of sphinx is limiting.
We are in the process of moving search out of a sphinx plugin into something independent of the development and deployment lifecycle of our active record models. We have not decided if we will continue to use sphinx or switch to solr. We just want to get search and indexing decoupled from the model and pulled out into it's own service that our rails application speaks to.
I used both in different projects. I would stay with solr, as it was easier to install: but that is just my experience. You can get more information here.
I'm also trying to compare Solr/Sphinx and found another way they are different in. It's search features:
If these features are important in context of your development, take a look at this.

How Maxforce FC Roach Bait Stations Work
Maxforce FC Roach Bait Stations are all about fast control and secondary kill. Due to Fipronil and its accelerated Domino Effect kill, Maxforce Roach Bait Stations start to kill roaches in just eight hours. And field tests show 75% population reductions in just two days for roaches. The bait formula is that irresistible, and works that fast.
Fipronil is in the Phenylpyrazole family of insecticides and is used in many products when a delayed kill is desired, such as ant and roach baits. Fipronil disrupts the insect central nervous system, causing hyperexcitation of nerves and muscles.
It's also convenient and easy to use. The small roach station bags contain loose-packed single stations and are re-sealable to keep baits fresh and protected from contamination. Plus, the patented inspectable red station lids now have an additional feature: A debossed lid that's index welded to the base, creating even greater bait station integrity. And, the easy peel-and-stick adhesive makes application fast.
Accelerated Maxforce Domino Effect
Our new fast control formula still gives you superior long-term control of roaches compared to contact sprays. The new active ingredient, Fipronil, provides a unique mode of action that works through both ingestion and contact, knocking down roaches that eat or simply touch the bait. Either way, one contaminated roach or ant kills many others where they live and breed. The Domino Effect still achieves population control, but with faster visible results.
Target Pests
Small cockroaches such as German and Brown-Banded
PESTS CONTROLLED: Small cockroaches such as German or Brown-Banded roaches; exposed, adult stages of beetles: cadelle, cigarette beetle, confused flour beetle, dermestid, drugstore beetle, flat grain beetle, granary weevil, lesser grain borer, lesser mealworm, merchant grain beetle, red flour beetle, rice weevil, rusty grain beetle, saw-toothed grain beetle, spider beetle, or warehouse beetle
Target Uses of Maxforce FC Roach Bait Stations
Maxforce FC Roach Bait Stations can be used in virtually any roach infestation of small roaches (do not use for large roaches such as Oriental roaches). Stations are ready-to-use and require no extra cleanup, so they require no maintenance except monitoring and replacing as needed. Maxforce FC Roach Bait Stations have a unique child-resistant design, so they can be used even in sensitive situations. Bait stations also protect the bait from contamination like dust or other debris. The included adhesive also makes stations easy to apply discreetly, in any orientation, for use in public areas.
Maxforce FC Roach Bait Stations are also labeled for exposed adults of a variety of stored product beetles and can be used in food/feed handling facilities.
Bait stations are the preferred formulation when harsh conditions exist in treatment sites that may compromise gel baits. Use stations where high moisture/humidity, temperature extremes or dust may reduce long term gel attractiveness. Examples of such sites include: dishwashing rooms; drop ceiling spaces; ovens and steam tables. Stations may also be a better long-term control choice in harborage sites that are difficult to service regularly, or may be sensitive to other formulations such as sprays and/or dusts. Examples of these sites include: inside appliances; vending machines, around electronics and in and around animal habitats.
ACTIVE INGREDIENT: Fipronil 0.05%
Application Instructions
1. Place bait stations in areas where cockroaches have been seen and where they hide. Cockroaches infest dark, warm, damp locations.
2. The bait stations can be stuck to a vertical surface by peeling off the protective strip to expose adhesive.
3. For effective roach control use 4-6 bait stations per 100 sq. ft. of horizontal surface area. Place adjacent to walls and flush in corners. Do not place more than 24 bait stations per residence. For outdoor use, place stations adjacent to structure.
4. Do not spray the bait stations. Avoid placing the bait stations on freshly sprayed surfaces.
5. Roaches will begin eating the bait immediately and you should expect to see fewer roaches within 3 days.
6. Inspect all bait stations and replace as needed for continual control of roaches.
For Pantry Pests:
Remove and dispose of infested foodstuffs. Clean up spilled foodstuffs from cupboard or food storage area. Once feeding on bait begins, most adult beetles will be killed within 7 days. Apply using the same rates outlined above.
Always read the product label completely before use.
Each bag contains 72 bait stations, treating at least 1,200 to 1,800 square feet of horizontal surface.
Standard Application Rates
*Use 4-6 bait stations per 100 sq. ft. of horizontal surface area. Do not use more than 24 stations per residence.
For use in the following areas:
Anywhere cockroaches are a problem, such as residential, warehousing and commercial establishments, including food service, food manufacturing and food processing facilities, hospitals, schools, daycare centers, nursing homes, health care facilities, laboratories, computer and electronic equipment facilities, pet shops, zoos, basements, buses, boats, trains and aircraft

OMG! Buy this right now!

As embarrassing as it is having "had" them, I had to write this review! This stuff is amazing! If you're truly tired of seeing roaches or the horrible smell of them when you use the microwave, buy this! I bought Maxforce FC Roach Bait Stations and Roach Control Kit#1 (which has the much needed birth control) and I saw a huge difference in 3 days and none, yes none, in a week! I still do 2 AM spot checks in the kitchen and no more roach parties! The stickies on back really work too! Also buy the birth control people! Sounds funny, but logically it works!

The people who make this must have a magician working for them. Received the package of Maxforce FC Roach Bait Stations on a Tuesday and just for laughs set out about 5 bait stations in the kitchen. By the time Saturday got here wasn't seeing roaches during the day and within a week wasn't seeing roaches except for a few sickly ones stumbling across the floor. They have been down for two weeks at this point and I see about one roach every 3 days. The baits even have sticky on them so you can put them on the bottom of the shelf. After you first set them out check the baits after about a week because some of them were empty.

After spending a bunch of money at other stores trying to at least control the roaches in our apartment, I finally gave this a shot. Within a few days, we weren't seeing them in the day at all and within a couple of weeks, we rarely see any at night. I am sold on this product, it did what the pest control company couldn't.

Very happy with the results
By Diana on 04/21/2006
I just wanted to let you know that I have used your Maxforce FC Roach Bait Stations, provided to me by the management where I live, and I was very happy with the results. Your baits have been the only effective baits I have ever used. Thanks so much!

This product is better than good!
By Kimberly on 12/16/2005
I actually brought this product from a person on the street. The results were remarkable. Within 4 days roaches were non existent in my apartment which had a minor roach problem. Each Maxforce FC Roach Bait Station was effective for nearly 7 (seven months). I have recommended this product to many people who complained of roach problems because of the satisfactory results. This product is effective even in a tenement where roaches are prevalent. I highly recommend Maxforce for your pest control product when fast and effective results are desired. 12/16/2005 This product is better than good, it is EXCELLENT!!

Cleaner and easier than the tubes of gel. The gel is great but trying to find a place to put it out of reach of the kids and pets is difficult. These make it much easier and I don't worry about pets and children getting into it. Just drop them and forget them. Bugs are disappearing fast!

I want my money back
By Juan in North Hollywood, ca on 10/07/2015
after 5 days still roaches everywhere ...did not work at all...Advion is much better. I placed like 30 baits and the roaches ignored them completely.
Expert response:
We apologize that the product has not worked up to your expectations. Maxforce FC Roach Bait Stations are slow acting and take at least a week before the first roach will die. 5 days is definitely not enough time to evaluate the efficacy of the product. Please take a few moments to read over our How to Treat for Roaches Guide to learn how to implement a successful roach control program (copy and paste the link below into your browser). Baiting is only a small portion of a roach control program and baiting alone is usually not enough. Sanitation, exclusion, spraying and the use of an insect growth regulator is usually needed Please let us know if you have any questions after reviewing the guide: http://www.domyownpestcontrol.com/how-to-get-rid-of-roaches-a-458.html

QWhen does the Maxforce FC Roach bait stations need to be replaced?
AThe Maxforce FC Roach Stations can last up to 1 year if there is still bait left inside. The stations have a translucent plastic top so you can see the bait tray inside. In a bad roach infestation, roaches can eat the bait in as little time as 1 or 2 weeks. You should replace the station once the bait is gone, or if you feel the station has become contaminated. Otherwise, as long as there is still bait inside, it will be good for one year.

QShould Maxforce FC Roach Bait Stations be placed inside kitchen drawers - where the silverware is??
I am renting a house and previous tenent has bait stations right inside kitchen drawers. I have two children (ages 7 & 9 years old) and am especially concerned about poisoning not only roaches but people! Where should bait stations be placed in kitchens? Are they safe to handle when removing from walls and drawers?
AMaxforce FC Roach Bait Stations can be placed in kitchen drawers. The bait will not be coming incontact with the kitchen utensils. Being able to apply bait in drawers, is great because you cannot apply a spray in those areas. The Maxforce FC Roach Bait Stations will not harm you if you touch them.

QHow do I get rid of German cockroaches in a car ?
i did the cleaning part, and ive been using sticky traps but i still see them around. what products do you recommend
AYou could use a roach bait station in your car such as the Maxforce Roach Bait Stations or the Advion Roach Bait Arenas. The roaches would eat the bait and share it with the other roaches and this will help eliminate the infestation.
05/16/2011 Gary
QWhat is the expiration date for MaxForce FC Roach Bait Stations if not used within 1 year?
AThere is no specific date of expiration given by the manufacturer. The manufacturer does recommend that you use the bait within one year of the date of purchase for maximum efficacy.
09/11/2013 Kathy from Bristol,ct
QDo I need to use the roach gel along with the Maxforce FC Roach Bait Stations?
A The Maxforce FC Roach Bait Stations are prefilled with bait gel already. The roach bait gels in the tubes are applied directly to cracks and crevices.

QWhy can you only use 24 Maxforce FC Roach Bait Stations in a home at a time?
A According to the manufacturer, there should only be 24 Maxforce FC Roach Bait Stations used in a home at a time because too much of the active ingredient in an area can confuse the roaches. They should be placed 4-6 stations per 100 square feet. This will allow them a sufficient amount of space between the stations so that the roaches will ingest the bait.

QWhat Maxforce FC Roach Bait Stations about BIG roaches?

QCan Maxforce FC Roach bait stations be put next to gentrol?
Can you put the stations near where just Gentrol IGR is sprayed? (meaning Gentrol and water mixture nothing else added)
AYes, Maxforce FC Roach bait stations will be fine next to Gentrol IGR. Gentrol IGR is just an insect growth regulator that is like a birth control for the roaches. Please let us know if you have any additional questions.

Something the Lord Made (2004 TV Movie)
Plot Summary
Alfred Blalock (1899-1964), a cardiologist (therefore, self-confident to the point of arrogance), leaves Vanderbilt for Johns Hopkins taking with him his lab technician, Vivien Thomas (1910-1985). Thomas, an African-American without a college degree, is a gifted mechanic and tool-maker with hands splendidly adept at surgery. In 1941, Blalock and Thomas take on the challenge of blue babies and invent bypass surgery. After trials on dogs, their first patient is baby Eileen, sure to die without the surgery. In defiance of custom and Jim Crow, Blalock brings Thomas into the surgery to advise him, but when Life Magazine and kudos come, Thomas is excluded. Will he receive his due?- Written by <email@example.com>
Tells the story of the extraordinary 34-year partnership which begins in Depression Era Nashville in 1930, when Blalock hires Thomas as an assistant in his Vanderbilt University lab, expecting him merely to perform janitorial work. But Thomas' remarkable manual dexterity and scientific acumen shatter Blalock's expectations, and Thomas rapidly becomes indispensable as a research partner to Blalock in his first daring forays into heart surgery. The film traces the groundbreaking work the two men undertake when they move in 1941 from Vanderbilt to Johns Hopkins, an institution where the only black employees are janitors and where Thomas must enter by the back door. Together, they boldly attack the devastating heart problem of Tetralogy of Fallot, also known as Blue Baby Syndrome, and in so doing they open the field of heart surgery. The film dramatizes their race to save dying Blue Babies against the background of a Jim Crow (Racial Segregation) America, illuminating the nuanced and complex relationship the two sustain. Thomas earns Blalock's unalloyed respect, with Blalock praising the results of Thomas' surgical skill as being "like something the Lord made", and insisting that Thomas coach him through the first Blue Baby surgery over the protests of Hopkins administrators.- Written by anonymous
A dramatization of the relationship between heart surgery pioneers Alfred Blalock and Vivien Thomas.- Written by Anonymous

BYU basketball: Wofford coach says matchup with Y. a 'tall order'
PROVO — After spending a long night watching game film of his team's upcoming NCAA Tournament opponent, Wofford coach Mike Young entered a verdict on BYU.
"We have a tall order out there in the Mile High City," he told reporters during a teleconference Monday. "I'm more impressed with them the more I watch them."
The No. 14 Terriers (21-12) face the No. 3 Cougars (30-4) Thursday (5:15 p.m. MDT, CBS) at the Pepsi Center in Denver in a Southeast Region contest.
"It blows my mind. This team has won 30 games. That's unconscionable to me," Young said about BYU. "(Coach) Dave Rose is fabulous. What they do offensively can really turn you inside out."
Immediately following Sunday's selection show, Wofford players cheered when they found out they would be playing BYU.
"I think our style of play matches up well with them," said senior forward Noah Dahlman. "A more athletic Big East team — I don't think that matchup would have gone as well."
Young explained that his team knows the challenge it's up against this week.
"They could have flashed the (Los Angeles) Lakers up and our guys would have said, 'Great matchup,' " he said. "They're excited, as well they should be. But they know they've got a lot of work to do between now and Thursday."
While Young heaped lavish praise on BYU guard Jimmer Fredette, the nation's leading scorer, he also said the Cougars' supporting cast is strong.
"We hear so much about Fredette, and deservedly so. He's a terrific talent and a great basketball player. We are every bit as impressed with their team," Young said, singling out guard Jackson Emery and forward Charles Abouo.
Asked about the green light Rose gives to Fredette to shoot the ball, Young said, "He's got a different shade of green. Fredette has earned that light. Dave Rose has complete trust and confidence in Jimmer and justifiably so because he's done it night-in, night-out. I had to excuse myself from the film room to walk down the hall (Sunday night) watching the replay of the New Mexico game, where the guy scored 52 points. If there's such a thing as a quiet 52, it was a quiet 52. He scores like he breathes. It's amazing. All of the accolades and everything that's come his way, he's deserved every bit of it. I love watching him play. He doesn't say a word. He just whips you and moves along about his business. He's a good one."
Wofford senior guard Jamar Diggs will draw the defensive assignment against Fredette, though Young emphasized that the task will be a team effort.
"Jamar Diggs can't guard him by himself. Rundles can't guard him by himself," Young said. "It comes back to your team, playing as a unit. Those post guys hedging on that ball screen, and showing on down screens, are every bit as important as Jamar Diggs and whomever might find themselves matched with Fredette."
Diggs defended the nation's fourth leading scorer, College of Charleston's Andrew Goudelock, in the Southern Conference Tournament championship game. The Terriers won the game and Goudelock finished with 25 points.
Young described Diggs as a "tenacious" defender. "He's as quick as a cat and has great hands. He's as competitive as any human being I've ever been around. Fredette, stating the obvious, is a special, special player. I will look forward to Jamar guarding him and our team guarding him. Fredette may very well get the best of him. But I tell you what — my guy's going to fight. He's going to go into that game as if he were shot out of a cannon. He'll be so excited. It will be, I hope, a good matchup."
Can the Terriers simulate Fredette's style of play in practice?
"That's impossible," Young said. "We'll watch a lot of tape and our guys will do a lot of film study on their own and try to pick up characteristics on how he scores. It's not like I'm going to go down to practice today and make this guy Fredette and he's going go off in practice for 40 (points). I can't do it. It's hard."
The Cougars have seen almost every imaginable defensive scheme in an attempt to slow down Fredette. Rose is confident that Fredette will still find ways to score and find his open teammates, no matter what.
"Jimmer's become very efficient at reading defenses," Rose said. "He's been very patient in his ability to attack. We'll see how they want to play him. We'll prepare just like we've prepared all year long."

I've ubuntu on my laptop, I'd like to remove it and install mint instead. What is the safest way to do it? ubuntu formatting
If it is the only OS currently on your system, simply install in the same fashion as you installed Ubuntu. Burn it to a disk, boot from it and follow the instructions. Once prompted for the disk partitioning scheme, you'll want to use the entire disk and wipe out the Ubuntu install.
If you currently have other OSs, the Mint installer is pretty good at picking those up and will allow you to utilize GRUB to dual boot with Windows for example.
Just overwrite it. I've never installed Mint, but just tell him to use the root-partition of Ubuntu (format it of course), and your Home-Partition (if any, but don't format it ;) ).

I don't know where you're taught these things, but I've never been taught a specific number (or a rounded number) for the years of peace.>8p
Also, I don't know if I entirely agree with your statement that the peace ended when the first group broke off and became Lamanites. That is not necassarily what Mormon thought or anyone else (though it could be, of course). It all depends on how history is looked at. You could say we had peace during the entire Clinton administration since we never really had a "war." However, we had the conflict in Bosnia and another in Haiti that our troops were involved in, not to mention pulling out of Somalia. Etc etc.

q (one dimension) to simplify the derivation.
Hint: Simply write the differential dL of the function L(q,, t); this involves 3 terms, which you should rewrite using the definition of generalized momentum and with the goal of
isolating ∂ L/∂ t on the left-hand side.
(b) From the result of part (a), show that, if ∂ L/∂ t = 0 (that is, for a Lagrangian independent
of time), the quantity
H = p − L is conserved. The quantity H defined in Eq. (9) is known as the Hamiltonian.
(c) Generalize the results of parts (a) and (b) to an arbitrary number of generalized coordinates,
by introducing appropriate sums.
(d) For a single particle in three dimensions in Cartesian coordinates, with L = T − V , prove
that the Hamiltonian H reduces to the ordinary energy E = T + V . Thus, conclude that:
Symmetry (invariance) under time translations implies conservation of the Hamil-
tonian (in general, and the energy for particular cases of "natural systems").
Definition: (used above) Symmetry or invariance with respect to a variable or coordinate
means that the Lagrangian ("master function" of the system) does not change as you allow
that variable to take different values: that is, the partial derivative with respect to that
variable is zero.
Note: This is one in the basic list of conservation laws from Noether's theorem. We will
be discussing this principle soon.
(e) Consider the functional
= I[y(x)]
As the stationary points of I [y] define a problem identical to the one in Hamilton's principle,
we can just restate any general conclusions from mechanics to this generalized variational
problem (see Lectures 20 & 21). From this alone, write down the analogue of Eq. (8) that
∂ F /∂ x = · · ·
which you should write out explicitly. This equation is sometimes known as the Beltrami identity or "the second form of the Euler equation." In addition, write down the expression for the corresponding "effective Hamiltonian"
Heff = · · ·

Wow! That's a huge improvement! Not only did the drums sound better, but the overall sound environment was re-done, and it's incredibly well done. Huge improvement since you started.
It didn't get the attention I was hoping for thought. :)
Thanks for the review.
Rated 4 / 5 stars
Pretty good piece. The synth is pretty chilling. However there isn't much development, especially for a 5 minutes piece. It gets boring after 3:00. You should add build up and some climax.
I guess that I'll have to ask someone for coaching cuz dis aint the only time I had problem with "developement"
Rated 5 / 5 stars
The melody is fantastic! I want those drum samples *^*
I'm glad that you like it.
I used EQUO to equalise the drums and then Effector to make them slightly more outstanding in the channels. :) You should have both plugins.
Rated 4.5 / 5 stars
I enjoyed the atmosphere and overall vibe. Production's quite cool as well!

text: Just wondering if there are any pitfalls using .net as the extension for a primary website. If you have some idea for a domain and the .com extension is already taken. I know it may take some traffic away possibly if people try to use the standard .com extension. In regards to SEO or any other basic effects this may have, are they any that anyone is aware of?
