I'm going to need help in baby-talk and tiny steps because I'm sure this is going to be a CSS issue and I don't know anything about how to fix CSS.
When I upgraded to v2.3 I ended up having to change templates as well because the old one I was using wasn't working, so I switched to using the Bernie theme. The only change I've made to it is to put a custom header in.
Now when I post image thumbnails in a post, it decides to ignore paragraph breaks and my post looks like this: Bernie - broken
No paragraph breaks where the images are.
Now here is the exact same post displayed in Tarski, which is the only theme I've found so far that actually recognises my paragraph breaks and displays the post as it should be, like this: Tarski - ok
Note I made no change to the actual post itself, only switched the template.
I've tried viewing in several different browsers (Flock, Firefox and IE6) and the result is the same on all browsers for both temoplates. I've also tried a couple of other templates (Mandigo and Ngatini) and they also behave the same way as Bernie, and it's just not usable at all.
My question is, what do I change in the Bernie template (and others) to make it behave like the Tarski one?

The menu of pages on my homepage is missing.
How do I get that back?
The menu of pages on my homepage is missing.
How do I get that back?
Please post your site URL
Did you edit the theme files?
On the homepage there was a navigation menu listing the pages on the site:
Clients & Kudos
That's gone and the logo and my name are gone.
If I could just get the navigation menu back, I'd be happy.
I have not messed with the theme.
You have tons of Base64 malicious codes/ malware in your site. Use TAC (Theme Authenticity Checker) to detect this.
Before the malware cause extensive damage, REVERT to the 2011 theme and delete your theme.
Which theme are you using?
By YOOtheme
Version 5.5.14
My site is brand new and was professionally designed so it's hard to believe that it is full of malware so fast, especially since it has security on it.
What 2011 theme are you referring to?
My previous theme is gone--it was hosted on a different site and my contract with that provider ended yesterday.
I would not know where to find TAC.
If I delete my theme, my site will go away. Can't do that.
You can download TAC from here.
Professionally designed or not, please check it with the above plugin. It will show you the source.
Go to your Dashboard >> Appearance >> Themes. You will find Twenty Eleven there. Just activate it.
u have to set primary id for menu
On the Dashboard, where do I set primary ID to Menu?
What is the path to do that?
Go to your Dashboard >> Appearance >> Menus>>Theme Locations
Thanks, but there is no "Theme Locations" tab in WordPress 3.4.
Are you agreeing with Mukesh that I must change my theme b/c I'm not going to do that. Go Daddy says I do not have a security issue.
krishna, just curious, how did you determine that their site "have tons of Base64 malicious codes/ malware in your site"? Base64 is server side - Do you have a magic wand that allows you to see their site code? There's absolutely nothing wrong with her site.

Here is one example. But it is associated with a plugin.
Do you identify anything from the above?
Base64 is used for positive purposes. But it is commonly used to hide malware also.
Krishna - That code looks like it is to display one of the book covers that's in the carousel on my site.
That is totally legit. Her site is fine. You really need to be careful about what you say is "malicous". If you don't know what it is your looking at your better off not saying anything rather than upsetting and scaring people.
In general, themes should not have any reason to use base64 encoding. Any theme that does should be treated with the greatest suspicion. So, in this respect, Krishna was correct to sound a warning. As it is, the site uses a commercial theme and therefore all support requests should be directed to the theme's vendor rather than here.
Esmi - Not sure I can query the vendor. My web designer is their member, not me.
Maybe, but something goes wrong, we have to check everything. I asked you to check your theme with TAC (please read above). If you checked it and found nothing wrong with the theme, we rule out the possibility and look for clues elsewhere. However, you did not seem to check it.
Can Base64 be used to hide malicious code? If it can be used what is wrong in my asking her to check what looks like malicious code. Now can you tell me why a lot of Base64 are associated with her files? Can you locate them?
Even at this moment they are there. Her site is having problems. If such suspicious codes are found they have to be investigated first. If you are in my position will you do that or not?
I'm sorry but there's nothing we can do about that other than to suggest you contact your web designer. We do not support commercial themes as you paid for support when you bought the theme. It is not our place to keep theme vendors in business or deprive them of any income that they may derive from support services.
Krishna - YOU can check any base64 code you find yourself before posting on the forums that it's "malicous". It is used regularly to hide malicous code but it DOES server other purposes, such as in her case where its being used to compress images to make the site load faster.
I don't recommend it being used, but some developers like to hide their code, which is fine, but don't automatically scream malcious code. Check it out yourself first, there are plenty of tools to do that and you can do it yourself with php if you know what your doing. Most of these people don't even understand what you are saying so all you do is cause confusion and panic.
She was having a problem locating where to set-up her menu, not any issues with security, viruses or malware.
@cjchamberland: Enough! As I said previously, themes should not have any reason to use base64 encoding. Any theme that does should be treated with the greatest suspicion. It is not the responsibility of support forum volunteers to decode out every base64 block that they come across. There are better places to do that. Kirshna was correct to be suspicious. Beyond that, s/he had no other responsibility.
@esmi - sorry I was just responding to his questions. Didn't mean to overstep any boundries.

Hi guys,
Really annoying problem here: I've edited the text that gets displayed above the "Password protected entry" form and I've also re-jigged the HTML form to fit within my site structure and CSS, but WordPress is insistent on placing
 and
 tags throughout the form, and it's driving me nuts. Here's my code:
function get_the_password_form() {
$output = "
Think you're part of the Mob eh. What's the codeword wiseguy?
" .
'<form action="' . get_option('siteurl') . '/wp-pass.php" method="post" class="standardform"><fieldset>Password <input id="post_password" name="post_password" type="password" /><input id="Send" type="submit" name="Submit" value="Go" /></fieldset></form>';
return $output;
This is what it's outputting:

Think you're part of the Mob eh. What's the codeword wiseguy?

<form action="http://phobea.com/wp-pass.php" method="post" class="standardform"><fieldset>Password
<input id="post_password" name="post_password" type="password" />
<input id="Send" type="submit" name="Submit" value="Go" /></fieldset></form>
As you can see it's putting
 tags after the label, not something I want it to do at all as it messes up my formatting. It's not technically very good HTML either.
As you can see I've tried stripping all whitespace from the form (with the proper whitespace, WP adds even more peculiar
 and
 tags throughout. I also searched the functions files for any relevant sr_replace calls but I can't find any.
Has anybody any idea why this is happening or is it a bug?

The potential use of biomarkers in ecological risk assessment is explored. The biomarker concept, initially developed to form a basis for studies at the individual/population level, is extended to include community and ecosystem level studies. A strategy is outlined in which biomarkers might be used to assess chemical exposureand the cumulative, adverse effects of toxicants on biotain situ. Protocols for identifying communities, species and populations most at risk are described. The role of biomarkers in the evaluation of the effectiveness of remedial action to alleviate pollution is discussed. It is proposed that, in addition to biomarker measurements on samples obtained from organisms at field sites, biomarker screening tests should be initiated in the laboratory with a range of new chemicals and organisms relevant to the field sites thought to be at risk. This will help to establish links between laboratory-based testing and adverse effectsin situ.

Newton-Bartlett Funeral Home in Newport has been in business since 1876.
David A. Newton established the home at that time and brought his two sons in making it a family run affair as it still is today. Dixi Crosby Newton eventually took over the business from his father and carried on the profession until his death in 1959. He had moved the funeral home to its present location in 1938 following the passing of Newport's beloved physician, Dr. John Cain, where it was his practice and residence. Most people remember Clinton S. "Junior" Bartlett who became a funeral director in 1942 and then a partner in 1953. He started with Dixi during high school and received his Mortuary Science education at the New England Institute at Kenmore Square in Boston. Mr. Bartlett proceeded to an apprenticeship in Worcester under George Longstreet before returning to Newport. Junior died in 2008 but spent most of his life as a funeral director. Bertha Emond wrote an article in 1977 for the Eagle Times and stated that Junior and his brother, Howard, owned Bartlett Brothers Monuments and Potted Plants while running the funeral home. The photo, shown at the bottom of this page, with the article shows the funeral home in the building to the right of its present location.
Junior was a kind and caring man and we thank him for his many years of service and attention to the families in Newport and the greater community.
Directly order flowers, view and sign the condolences book, share memories and more to celebrate lives of those dearly missed.
Take a few moments to express your wishes now and help to ease the burden on your loved ones.

Tomato Basil Bread - by Hand or Bread Machine
Total Time
Prep 2 mins
Cook 35 mins
This breads' chewy crust pairs well with a steaming mug of soup. The pretty color and robust flavor are a great pairing with chicken or turkey cold cuts or a summer tomato sandwich. I use this basic recipe in my bread machine using the dough cycle; following my bread machines instructions. I then bake it in the oven. I also omit the red pepper flakes and, at times, omit the Parmesan cheese and replace it with an additional 1/4 cup of flour. Be careful and add additional flour a little at a time depending on the humidity in your kitchen.
Ingredients Nutrition
- 1 (1/4 ounce) package active dry yeast
- 3⁄4 cup warm water (110 to 115 )
- 1⁄4 cup fresh basil, minced (substitute with 2 tablespoons dried)
- 1⁄4 cup parmesan cheese, grated
- 3 tablespoons tomato paste
- 1 tablespoon sugar
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1⁄8-1⁄4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
- 2 1⁄2-2 3⁄4 cups bread flour
- In a large mixing bowl, dissolve yeast in water. Stir in basil, Parmesan cheese, tomato paste, sugar, oil, salt, pepper flakes and 2 cups flour. Stir in enough remaining flour to form a stiff dough.
- Turn onto a floured surface; knead until smooth and elastic, about 3-5 minutes. Place in a greased bowl, turning once to grease top. Cover and let rise in a warm place until doubled, about 1 hour.
- Punch dough down; knead for 1 minute. Shape into a round loaf. Place on a greased baking sheet. Cover and let rise until doubled, about 1 hour.
- With a sharp knife, cut a large "X" in top of loaf. Bake at 375° for 35-40 minutes or until golden brown. Remove from pan to a wire rack to cool.

I bake. My family eats and leaves crumbs. Raw deal, heh?
I made this recipe to go with a turkey sandwich recipe I wanted to try also..OMG this was so good the sandwich was fab..I made to loaves,one I gave to my daughter..I used 1/4 tsp total ,used my KA for mixing and kneading otherwise followed recipe exactly...What a great sandwich bread,or even with a hearty soup..I will definitely be making this again. I recommend trying #116193 bacon turkey bravo to go with this bread, delish..Thank U......
Great bread Brandess! First off I used whole wheat flour so of course my results will be a bit different. That being said I did end up with a wonderful flavoursome loaf that accompanied Hearty Chicken and Vegetable Soup very well.. I made your recipe in a stand mixer and added an additional 1 cup of flour after step one. The rising time was longer due to the type of flour and the weather. I did use the crushed red pepper flakes and next time will add at least a teaspoon. I also brushed the outside with cold water before and during cooking to get a lovely crisp crust. Thank you for the recipe.

I am rendering Shave hair with Vray and found if I turn off the Compositing in Shave Globals, Vray still renders the hair.
also it doesnt output the hair images when I check "Output Hair Images" and set up the path.
If I do the same in Mentalray it works.
Did I miss something in Vray?
Is there some way I can properly get the hair pass and the geo pass in one render layer in Vray?
Thanks very much!
Mental ray has 2 modes to render Shave and Haircut ... Buffer and Hair Primitive, Vray renders Shave and Haircut only as Hair Primitives and that setting that u used is for Buffer only. The best way to hide the hair si by selecting the hair and in the ShaveHairShape node turn off Active. I am personally testing the hair_tk shader from puppet to create many passes for shave and haircut.

Budget Deal Faces Key Vote In Senate
A modest but potentially tone-changing budget deal now faces a key test in the Senate. It was approved by the House last week, with the support of a majority of House Republicans. Now at least five Senate Republicans will have to support the plan for it to reach the critical, 60-vote threshold needed for passage.

How baseball's other half lives
Most teams operating in a Hot Stove neighborhood separate from the heavy hitters
Originally Published: December 10, 2010By Jerry Crasnick | ESPN.com
New York Mets general manager Sandy Alderson won the offseason quotability award last weekend with his reaction to Jayson Werth's new $126 million contract with the Nationals. "I thought they were trying to reduce the deficit in Washington,'' Alderson said, to the laughter of many.

Antigonish, Nova Scotia
Pat Moore of Newington writes: "In October 2006 we traveled to Antigonish, Nova Scotia, to attend the wedding of our oldest daughter. We took a day trip while up there and ran across this beautiful lighthouse on the north coast. Outdoor weddings that time of year are risky with uncertain weather but we were treated to spectacular conditions."Pat Moore

The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services' Biomedical Advanced Research and Development Authority (BARDA) is working with GlaxoSmithKline in an effort to develop drugs to fight both antibiotic resistance and bioterrorism.
Under the terms of the agreement, HHS will provide $40 million for the initial 18-month agreement and up to a total of $200 million should it be renewed over five years. The work will be governed by a BARDA-GSK joint oversight committee, which will monitor progress, make decisions related to the allocation of funds, and decide which drug candidates will be added to or removed from the partnership portfolio.
GSK notes that funding for this public-private collaboration will be allocated flexibly around its antibacterial portfolio, rather than focusing on a particular drug candidate. Further, it will allow the partners to study drugs for the potential treatment of both conventional and biothreat pathogens, GSK adds.
"There is an urgent need to address antibiotic resistance, and new models are needed to deal with this challenging area of drug development," David Payne, Ph.D., head of GSK's Antibacterial Discovery Performance Unit, said in a statement. "We strongly believe that innovative public-private partnerships such as this are integral to solving this critical healthcare issue and we are delighted to work with BARDA in a more strategic way."

Burns Index
Featured: Burns (First Aid) Main Article
Burns are categorized by severity as first, second, or third degree. First degree burns are similar to a painful sunburn. The damage is more severe with second degree burns, leading to blistering and more intense pain. The skin turns white and loses sensation with third degree burns. Burn treatment depends upon the location, total burn area, and intensity of the burn.

Cassandra's grandmother is a character of the day who appeared in The Problem with Paras.
Cassandra's grandmother was first seen grinding herbs at the herbal shop.

They scarcely waked before they slept,
They scarcely wept before they laughed;
They drank indeed death's bitter draught,
But all its bitterest dregs were kept
And drained by Mothers while they wept.
I've been at this Cradle Catholic gig for nearly 35 years, so you'd think I'd have learned a thing or two by now. But no; it's happened again, as it has every year for as long as I can remember.
I've been surprised by the Feast of the Holy Innocents.
This month's tragic events put the suffering of innocents front-and-center. Yet the arrival of the latest bundle of Susanka joy (and mine own innate tendency to think of human suffering as little as humanly possible) renders this year's feast even more jarring to me than it has been in the past.
What a strange duality dogs our Catholic footsteps. No sooner do we begin the celebration of one of the most joyous events of our past than we are brought hard-up against one of the most emotionally devastating events in all of Salvation History: an event that I find myself (grudgingly) accepting intellectually, but which remains as emotionally difficult as ever.
And the cyclical nature of the liturgical year means that I find myself in this conflicted state not once, or twice, but over and over and over again. It's almost as though the Church is engaging in a brutal game of "psych," holding out the joys of Christmas each year only to slap me down with the death of thousands of young babes as soon as I draw near.
Time and again, I reach out to cradle the Christ Child in His manger only to bruise myself against the wood of the Cross — a reality that lies always just beneath the surface of human existence.
Over at the Word on Fire blog, Father Steve Grunow's Coventry Carol-themed reflection captures the day's conflicting sentiments in a phrase: "Shadows lurked beneath the light of the star of Bethlehem."
I can't imagine a day when I will find myself comfortable with those shadows. But that's not really why the Church reminds me of their existence, is it?

Cheryll / Guam
What foods do I love? Well, I love so many foods, it's very hard to choose from.
Let's see! Out of the Italian food category, I think I love lasagna the best, and I think I'm quite like Garfield in that sense. Garfield says, "If you love food, then that's it. There's nothing else to do but eat and sleep." So I really love lasagne. The layers of cheese and meat and the actual pasta itself really, really is delicious. The other thing that I like in the Japanese food category is sashimi. I really like sashimi because I really like raw fish and it's got all sorts of different sashimi types in Japan. They have -- I don't even know. You can just stop that.

TT Boy's following.
Decked out in a tank and mini, 10 relatively fresh teeny-boppers display their asses, pussies and titties - auction-block style. Immediately following this, a resident-stud explores most of the six-total orifices. Incidentally, the title refers to the oral exchange of discharged spunk between the girls, post-pop.
TT Boy, as a performer, is more present than usual. He stunts his cock-out for three of the five scenes, selecting the most nubile beauties of the bunch. There's a vibe of lethargy that's distracting. None of the girls really connect with one another, so the girl/girl action is marginalized. The sole exception to this is the Victoria Sweet/Karina Kay scene.
Casual strokers probably won't mind the lack of carnal cadence.

As the New Global Family Leader for Europe/Eurasia I have the honour to attend the WWG 2013 in Korea. It was such a nice experience spending time with the Korean Young Athletes and their families. First at the Convention Centre for the YA Demo and then at Ocean700 where we had lunch with the YA families, then it was time for more surprises as it was fantastic to see the young athletes go in the pool accompanied by a parent to participate in the New Get Wet Program. I was impressed to see the faces of the young boys and girls change into beautiful smiles once they started exercising. This really shows how the YA Program not only helps the children to learn through fun but also helps the parents to interact with the child. I will definitely share this experience back home in Malta. About Me:Ms Simone Attard has a Post Graduate Diploma in Family Therapy, and has for the last 12 years worked with several NGO's in Malta and also served as consultant on the Family Field.

News of the Zika virus outbreak in Latin America has raised alarm bells, resulting in scattered calls for tighter restrictions on international entries to the United States. Evidence shows, however, that closing borders and restrictions on international travel tend to have little impact on the spread of infectious diseases. This feature article explores the linkages between public health and migration in the Americas.
The complex push and pull factors driving child and family migration from Central America to the United States have changed little since the 2014 crisis. Despite some fluctuation in arrival numbers, recent trends suggest the characteristics of an enduring phenomenon. This Policy Beat explores the latest developments in U.S. policy responses, including enforcement operations, development assistance, and family detention.
Signed more than 30 years ago, the Cartagena Declaration sought to address rising flows of refugees and establish regional solidarity in refugee protection in Latin America. This article explores the evolution of refugee and asylum policies in Latin America amid the long-running Colombian civil war, as well as the region's response to the current global refugee crisis.
This fact sheet uses U.S. and Mexican apprehensions data to trace the evolving trends in unaccompanied child and family migration from Central America through Mexico and to the United States, and discusses the push factors and pull factors responsible for the increase in flows seen in recent years, as well as the growing role of smuggling organizations.
A webinar releasing a report examining deportations to Central America and reception and reintegration services in El Salvador, Guatemala, and Honduras.
Citizenship came under fire in new ways around the world in 2015, with attempts to both restrict who is eligible to become a citizen and who can be deprived of citizenship. Driven by fears of international terrorism, a number of countries proposed or passed legislation making it easier to narrow citizenship and broadening the range of offenses for which individuals can be stripped of their citizenship.
From earthquakes to drought, natural disasters and climate change played a key role in migration flows in 2015. Climate-induced migration surfaced as a concern at the United Nations Climate Change Conference (known as COP21) as international organizations and policymakers have begun to recognize the growing challenges, and potential protection obligations, of such movement.
For a growing population of migrants deported from Mexico and the United States to Central America, the conditions upon return typically are worse than when they left, setting up a revolving-door cycle of migration, deportation, and remigration. This report provides a detailed profile of reception and reintegration services offered in El Salvador, Guatemala, and Honduras to deported migrants, examining their challenges and opportunities for improvement.

Marking the release of an MPI brief, this webinar examines data on where unaccompanied child migrants are being placed in the United States, how they are faring in immigration courts, what services are available to them, and how U.S. communities are adapting to their arrival.
More than 77,000 unaccompanied minors from Central America were released to communities throughout the United States between October 1, 2013 and August 31, 2015. This issue brief examines where these children have been placed in the United States, how they are faring in the immigration court system, and how schools are adapting to their arrival.
Marking the release of a MPI brief, this webinar will examine data on where unaccompanied child migrants are being placed in the United States, how they are faring in immigration courts, what services are available to them, and how U.S. communities are adapting to their arrival.
The Central American immigrant population in the United States has grown dramatically since 1980 to reach 3.2 million or 7 percent of the country's total foreign-born population. Central Americans were significantly less educated, but more likely to be employed than all immigrants and U.S. born. From income to health coverage and more, this Spotlight explores key indicators of the Central American immigrant population.
This report examines the rising numbers of apprehensions and deportations of Central American children and adults by the United States and Mexico, and provides a demographic, socioeconomic, and criminal profile of deportees to El Salvador, Guatemala, and Honduras. The report traces how rising Mexican enforcement is reshaping regional dynamics and perhaps ushering in changes to long-lasting trends in apprehensions.
Marking the release of an MPI report, speakers on this webinar present an overview of regional immigration enforcement trends, including U.S. and Mexican apprehensions and deportations of both children and adults, along with a demographic, socioeconomic, and criminal profile of child and adult deportees.
The in-country refugee processing program launched in Central America by the Obama administration in December 2014 as a response to rising unaccompanied child migration may provide a legal, safe alternative to undertaking dangerous, unauthorized journeys to the United States, albeit a limited one. This report examines the Central American Minors Refugee/Parole Program, as well as the history and track record of prior U.S. in-country processing programs.
Policymakers, the public, and the media were seemingly caught off-guard in spring 2014 when a surge of child migrants from Central America reached the U.S.-Mexico border in unprecedented numbers. Yet the uptick began in 2011. This report examines the causes of this surge and recommends policy solutions to advance both critical protection and enforcement goals in situations of complex, mixed flows.

What is Transplant Ethics?
The field of transplant ethics is a specialty within the practice of clinical ethics. The goals of transplant ethics are to promote the integrity of transplant medicine, and the welfare of living donors and organ recipients. Because organs are very scarce and a precious gift, transplant ethics aims for organ allocation to those with the capacity to benefit from it.
There are many ethical dilemmas and complex situations that can arise during transplant and organ donation.
Examples of transplant dilemmas include the following:
Ethics assessment of fulminant patients;
Transplantation for those who are uninsured or underinsured;
Assessment of patients expressing ambivalence about pursuing transplant;
Assessment of patients with compliance problems;
Ethics assessments of living donor candidates;
Ethics assessments for candidates with mental health issues;
Re-transplantation cases;
Policy matters such as organ tourism, solicitation of living donors, prisoners & parolees, and extended criteria organs (e.g., organs from older donors);
Assessment of patients considering permanent or bridge use of ventricular assist devices;
Assessment of hand and face transplant candidates & VCA living donor candidates
Educational Events

On my recent trip to Tokyo and Singapore, the changing nature of cities came to the fore. There is huge build demand as cities compete to achieve growth.
In a competitive, global business environment, it is increasingly recognised that facilities management (FM) has a strategic role to play in the experience of the end user of buildings and facilities, and ultimately the success of the organisations operating from them.
This year I have started to witness those across different ages and different disciplines take an active interest in the change that is impacting our sector.

Fans have been chirping about this team for a very long time. Arizona Cardinals Football Club owns and operates the Arizona Cardinals, the oldest surviving franchise in the National Football League. The team was organized as the Morgan Athletic Club in 1898 and joined the NFL in 1920. (It was renamed the Chicago Cardinals two years later.) After winning two league titles -- its last in 1947 -- the Cardinals moved first to St. Louis in 1960 and then relocated to Phoenix in 1988. It became the Arizona Cardinals in 1994. The team plays host at University of Phoenix Stadium in the Phoenix suburb of Glendale. The family of Bill Bidwill has owned the franchise since 1932.

Speaking to an event organised for International Nurses Day
at Dunedin Hospital yesterday, the 78-year-old said she now
believed she should not have retrained in medicine.
Now retired in Mosgiel, Dr Blackburn had a successful career
in general practice after practising as a nurse. She had
gained an appreciation of the relationship nurses enjoyed
with patients, especially in hospital.
''The nurse is the closest to the patient,'' she said.
Patients picked up non-verbal communication from nurses to a
greater extent than what was said. Nurses had to prioritise
the needs of patients, and also had to take time out for
themselves to recharge.
''They may not remember your name or face, but they will
remember how much you cared for them,'' Dr Blackburn said.
Also speaking at yesterday's ceremony, Balclutha nurse
practitioner Gayle Lindley told the nurses about the ''long
difficult process'' of attaining the top tier nursing role.
She felt that if she could achieve the expert nurse
registration, others could.
Her ''journey'' to becoming a nurse practitioner included
stints in isolated West Coast communities, where she was the
only clinician on call.
Awards were presented to those who had demonstrated nursing
or midwifery excellence. The recipients were: Bec Flamank,
Nisha Yijayan, Cathy Phillips, Jan Seuseu, Shirley Bell,
Paula Sharp, Raewyn Hodgson, Frances McCaffrey and Annie

Paper To Planes
In 2014, singer / songwriters and Kansas City natives Chad Abernathy and AJ Young joined forces to create Paper To Planes. Bringing an original mix of rock / pop / R&B / blues and high energy performances, they have been featured at multiple festivals and venues and on radio stations in the past year, and have a new EP on the way.
Sam Burchfield
Sam Burchfield's sound ranges from clever lyrical ballads like 'Doctor' to upbeat funky compositions such as 'She Got Your Love.' Add in some banjo driven folk songs like 'Here Tonight' and you're almost there. From banjo, to brass, to traditional rock four piece, Sam has taken the diversity of modern music and blended it into his own multiple-genre style that keeps the listener entertained, interested and impacted. With a voice that can be soft and sultry, or full of loud southern soul, the music Sam writes is connected by an authentic passion and energy that audiences have been hungry for. Soulful vocals and folk-influenced lyrics combine with a foundation in southern blues and funk to produce an exciting sound from this up-and-coming musician. From the slow ballads that speak of love and longing, to quirky and comical folk tunes, Sam has not limited himself to one genre. While he has achieved much success as a young artist, the potential is limitless for this youthful dreamer and his noble guitar, Sassy.
Rising up from the quaint Eastern Shore towns of the Chesapeake Bay, this newly formed six-piece band, Uprizing, has stumbled upon a unique sound of R&B, funk, reggae and classic rock that is quickly taking the shore by storm. Featuring several vocalists, a guitarist, a bassist and a drummer, their unmatched versatility and through-the-roof energy makes them the area's top dance party band. Dishing out a mix of funk and R&B classics mixed with modern top 40 hits with splash of reggae, Uprizing is guaranteed to keep the crowd moving.
Phil Portier
Phil Portier is a singer, guitarist and songwriter who has been playing in Maryland and the Mid-Atlantic region since the 90's, playing solo and fronting local bands like Waking At Seven, Midlife Crisis and The Legend Of Eddie. His play list provides the soundtrack for a great time whether he's singing 80's anthems from U2, classic rock from The Who, or music you sing along to while driving. When Phil isn't Rockin' the Casbah, you can find him teaching government to high school sophomores in Salisbury. There's an equally good chance you can find him in Pocomoke with his wife and kids watching The Ravens win or enjoying The O's beating up on The Yankees.
Don Alder
Don Alder plays acoustic fingerstyle guitar with a passion that has quickly earned him a reputation as Vancouver's "best kept little secret." Don is a world-class fingerstyle guitarist with a "wow factor" that has led to winning top modern guitar competitions worldwide and multiple endorsement deals with major manufacturers. He is a top endorsee for Yamaha Guitars, Seymour Duncan Pickups, Ernie Ball Strings and Santo Angelo Cables.
The Coteries
If the road can teach you anything it is the difference between what you need and what you don't. That's why The Coteries took an acoustic turn in the summer of 2014 following an 11,000 mile long road trip in their old VW Van, Thrusty Rusty. Being inspired by the singer-songwriters of their past, The Coteries have adopted much of the same touch. They craft songs around stories and the tight-knit melodies of lead singer Emily Parasiliti woven with accompanying acoustic guitar work from Matt Runciman and Ben Brosh. As they expand their footprint across the Northeast they continue to bolster their sound with new musical accompaniment. Coming off their debut release this past year, the band looks forward to recording their first full length album in 2015.
Haleytown is the one and only country band from Ocean City, Maryland. We cover everything from Reba McEntire to Zac Brown Band and anything in between, including original music written by our very own Blake Haley. The band starts with our rock-star drummer Skip Dixon. You may recognize his voice from 'Big Dawg Fun' on weekday mornings with our good friend Bigler on Hot Country 107.7. Slappin' da base is our own Kasey Briggs. Although Haleytown could be described as the polar opposite of his other band - The Phantom Limbs - he's got a 'hillbilly bone' that he can't hide. At the front of the stage you will most likely find Blake and Daniele Haley. Blake is country to the core (even if he does like to throw a little Pearl Jam into his sets). Born and raised in Vicksburg, Mississippi, he (and his wife) were the logical choice as the namesake for the band.
Sub-Radio Standard
After creating local buzz with their debut album We Could Be Infinite, with tracks featured on DC101 and college radio stations nationwide, Sub-Radio Standard (SRS) demonstrated their rapid maturation on their 2014 sophomore effort Bad Habit. Layered guitars swirl over an irresistible rhythm section that has made SRS's live shows well-known and have garnered comparisons to established pop-rock acts like Maroon 5. Multiple songs on the album were recognized in national songwriting competitions as SRS played festivals from New York to North Carolina. SRS has also opened for established acts including the Grammy-winning band, A Great Big World and Honor By August.
Will Overman Band
There's a new sound echoing through the valleys in Virginia. American life vibrates in the instruments and heartland lyrics of Will Overman Band (WOB). Their music is dynamic in its methods and surprisingly contemporary, but rooted in the folksong spirit of any Blue Ridge mountaineer. Find yourself in the crowd of a WOB jamboree and expect something passionate, filled with energy and probably a little perspiration. Proud to call Charlottesville, VA home, WOB frequents venues up and down the East Coast with band members Daniel McCarthy on lead guitar and banjo, Christopher Helms on drums and Brittney Wagner singing vocals. Will Overman Band's music is meaningful, made with sincerity and hearty as a Southern, home-cooked meal. Be sure to check out this new group on the scene and get your serving of wholesome, well-made music too.
Whiskeybelly are an acoustic duo. The duo adds their signature sound to popular covers as well as originals. Their soulful vocals and guitar playing are sure to entertain a wide variety of audiences. Whiskeybelly strives to maintain a high level of audience interest by playing multiple instruments as well as constantly switching instruments.
Chris Diller
It's a labor of love. The dust has settled after Railaway's final show. The lead vocalist of one of Baltimore's favorite local rock bands has transitioned from big name music venues and local radio spins to weekly shows at a local tavern. Experimenting with instrumentation and revisiting his earlier acoustic guitar days, a banjo, kick drum and tambourine have all found their way into the mix. The energetic one-man-band is a product of seven years of shows, mind-numbing studio hours and life in a rock band. The style echoes the post Railaway era, but the music has found new life. The new sound is finding its way into the ears of a new wave of rock-folk and alt-country music fans in the Baltimore/DC/Virginia area. The self-titled EP and the brand new "Here But Not Here - EP," are both available online for purchase and streaming. The soulful singer is rested and ready, sharing new songs up and down the Mid-Atlantic and meeting new friends along the way.
Ken Wenzel
DC-area based Ken Francis Wenzel has been gaining attention locally and regionally with his Midwestern-accented musings, telling stories spun from a life spent moving from town to town. Ken is an in-demand freelancer, having played with artists both locally and nationally including Frankie Avalon, Ben Vereen, Bobby Parker and Carlos Santana. He maintains an active performance schedule while pursuing his solo songwriting career and running a studio specializing in private saxophone and guitar instruction. Today, whether performing as a solo acoustic singer-songwriter or with his full band Cross Kentucky, Ken stays busy, playing 200+ shows a year across the DC, Delaware, Maryland and Virginia region, the Eastern seaboard, the Midwest and South.

Over the next year, Leadership, along with sister publications Christianity Today and Books & Culture, will feature articles that explore the relationship between church and culture, specifically the question: How can the church be a counterculture for the common good? This effort, funded in part by the Pew Charitable Trust, is called The Christian Vision Project. Mark Buchanan provides the first article in this series.
Jonah is my favorite prophet, and for no better reason than our uncanny resemblance. I'm bald and I figure him baldwhy else his emotional tumult over how shade-dappled or sun-scorched his head? I'm short and I imagine him short: a stumpy, wiry guy, all that peevishness compacted tight as a nail bomb. He loved comfort and resented interruption, and that runs pretty close to my own bias. He was possessive, evasive, defensive, obsessive. Things not unknown to me.
Jonah is my least favorite prophet, and for exactly the same reason. He reminds me too much of me. I long to be Daniel-like in wisdom, Isaiah-like in righteousness, Ezekiel-like in faithfulness. I want the courage of Elijah, the endurance of Jeremiah, the long-view of Zechariah. I dream of standing down kings and outrunning horses, commanding drought and deluge with a word, calling down woe like thunderbolts and blessing like manna.
But I'm plagued with Jonah-likeness.
And here's a deeper worry: so is the church. Not just my church, but the churchespecially the church in North America. We're evasive with God, resentful toward outsiders, smug about our own goodness. Prudish, hawkish, lovers of comfort, and nursing a giant grudge against anyone and anything that threatens it.
Just like Jonah.
That's half the story, anyhow.
The other half is that the church is Esther, Esther prior to her awakening: assuming an insider status and willing to disguise her true identity for the sake of it, fearful of confronting her culture. We want to be like everyone else, only more so. We're a people terrified of being peculiar. We'll do almost anything to win a pagan king's affections.
Jonah wants just to be left alone, and would happily let everyone else go to hell. Esther wants just to fit in, and willingly forsakes her distinctiveness to achieve that.
Between these two impulses, the kingdom always goes begging.
But this is about sex
And that's exactly where I find these two stories so compelling, and so disturbing. Jonah and, implicitly, his community are threatened by Assyrian exile. Jonah is called as a missionary to the very people who bear that threat. Esther and, explicitly, her community are in the clutches of Persian exile. Esther is called to take a stand against the very people in whose land she and her people dwell but who now threaten to destroy them.
Neither story is about sex per se (though that's a subtext in Esther: the things we do for love), but both are about God's people living amidst pagan culturea culture that is pervasive, seductive, potentially coercive, and often at deep odds with what God thinks. Both are about the ways God's people try to negotiate their place toward or within that culture. And so both help us think through spiritual and ethical issues, including sexual ethics, for such a time as this.
How then shall we live?
Jonah chooses the way of condemnation. He hates the culture that threatens his own. His attitude is leave-us-alone and damn if you don't. He is prideful of his distinctiveness ("I am a Hebrew and I worship the Lord, the God of heaven, who made the sea and the land," he smugly tells the sailors whose ship he's boarded, even though he's using these men to escape this God), but he's not the least bit inclined to invite others to share in it.

Tern Bicycles and SXSW Announce Festival's First-Ever Bike Share Program
Urban transport specialist, Tern Bicycles, and Austin's SXSW, announce the conference's first ever bike share program while serving as its exclusive cycling industry partner.
With a Tern Link D8, SXSW-Interactive attendees can leave buses and taxis behind while cruising through the sights and sounds of Austin, dropping in to different venues around town on a whim.
"SXSW-Interactive is an amazing event but it can get pretty hairy looking for a cab or parking when hundreds of people all need transport to a different venue at the same time," said Steve Boyd, head of Tern in North America. "Our goal with SXcycles is to let people see how convenient, fun, and fast it is to get around by bike. Austin is an amazing cycling town and our hope is that if attendees enjoy their bike trips in Austin, they'll think about incorporating more bike trips when they get home."
One hundred and fifty Tern Link D8's will be available for SXSW-Interactive attendees with "Interactive,"
A bike with the perfect gearing for the city (8 speeds, 32" – 85" gear inches), a quick 10 second fold-to-unfold turnaround time, and zippy 20-inch wheels makes the Link D8 a versatile urban cycling solution. Each SXcycle rider will receive a Link D8 along with a helmet, a lock, as well as BioLogic front and rear lights, Portage Rack, and Commute bag for stowing laptops, tablets, and other festival necessities.
In addition, Tern will team up with Guerilla Cyclewerx, a collective of mobile mechanics who will be available to assist with flat tires, bike swaps, and other minor repairs on the road (full repair services will be available at the main rental area across the street from the Austin Convention Center). Providing the front end service is Austin Bike Tours And Rentals (ABTAR), Austin's go-to bike tour guide and rental company.

I don't know if my problem is in any way related to your problem, but several days ago, my ShareThis 4.1.0 plug-in in my WP 3.1.1 installation suddenly stopped working after having worked fine for several months.
During the last several days, I have not updated WP or any of my other WP plug-ins, so I am not sure why ShareThis suddenly stopped working.
I have just sent an email to the ShareThis folks at email@example.com. Let's see if they respond with a solution.
I've got the same problem - the weird thing I noticed is that in the options where I should be able to "Click to view/modify the HTML tags." it gives me the php code instead, so if I paste it in the single page where I want it, of course nothing happens. If anyone finds a solution please post. The other solution posted (changing 2 lines of code) didn't fix this. thanks
Found the solution here: http://forums.sharethis.com/topic.php?id=2775
Put one piece of code in the header and the other in the page template, and it finally showed up.
Hello Kiravae. Personally, I finally just got fed up with ShareThis, so I switched to the Sharedaddy and Sharedaddy More Control plug-ins instead.
After adding a little bit of CSS code to Sharedaddy's "sharing.css" file, Sharedaddy displays all of my social networking buttons -- I currently have 23 of them -- very nicely on the Endtime Prophecy Net Blog in a div box with rounded corners and gradient background, all neatly lined up in five rows, and with smaller icons.
You may want to have a look at Sharedaddy, and compare it with ShareThis, and then decide which you like more.

This book describes the new generation of discrete choice methods, focusing on the many advances that are made possible by simulation. Researchers use these statistical methods to examine the choices that consumers, households, firms, and other agents make. Each of the major models is covered: logit, generalized extreme value, or GEV (including nested and cross-nested logits), probit, and mixed logit, plus a variety of specifications that build on these basics. Simulation-assisted estimation procedures are investigated and compared, including maximum simulated likelihood, method of simulated moments, and method of simulated scores. Procedures for drawing from densities are described, including variance reduction techniques such as anithetics and Halton draws. Recent advances in Bayesian procedures are explored, including the use of the Metropolis-Hastings algorithm and its variant Gibbs sampling. No other book incorporates all these fields, which have arisen in the past 20 years. The procedures are applicable in many fields, including energy, transportation, environmental studies, health, labor, and marketing.

DNA Chip May Help Usher In a New Era of Product Testing
By ANDREW POLLACK
Published: November 28, 2000
Of the 80,000 or so chemicals that go into the products of daily life, the vast majority have never been thoroughly tested for harmful effects. The traditional approach to such testing, exposing laboratory animals to the chemical, is slow, expensive and attacked by animal rights groups. And what happens in animals doesn't always correspond with what happens in people.
But hope is growing among scientists that a new approach -- studying genes -- could offer a faster, cheaper and more accurate way to test drugs, chemicals, food additives and cosmetics.
In the new approach, animals or cells in a test tube are exposed to the chemical. Special chips, known as DNA chips, are then used to see which genes are turned on or off as the animal or cells react. This pattern of gene activity, at least in theory, should indicate whether the chemical is toxic, much as DNA fingerprints are used to judge the guilt or innocence of criminal suspects.
The technique, called toxicogenomics, is still in the early experimental stage, but it could offer many advantages over current approaches. Animal tests, for instance, can determine that a substance causes liver damage, cancer, heart problems or birth defects, but not why it does so. The pattern of gene activity, however, should offer clues to the biochemical pathways by which the harm occurs.
The use of the chips may also reduce the number of animals needed to test chemicals, especially if the tests can be run using cells in the test tube rather than live animals. Still, experts say traditional animal testing may still be needed in some cases to supplement new techniques.
Changes in gene activity may also occur well before other more visible symptoms of harm, like tumors, which can take months to develop. It is also expected that gene tests will be more sensitive to lower doses than animal tests.
''It provides us with a way to do measurements that are much more powerful than we've had before,'' said Dr. Mark D. Johnson, a principal scientist at the R. W. Johnson Pharmaceutical Research Institute in Raritan, N.J., which is part of Johnson & Johnson. ''I would hope that we'd be able to do a much better job of detecting events that are difficult to detect using current methods.''
But the technology could be a mixed blessing for the drug and chemical companies. Experts say that it would be easy for such data to be misinterpreted or incompletely analyzed but that environmental groups would be quick to use the data to urge that products be banned or pollutants more tightly regulated.
''You don't necessarily want to have a more sensitive way to look for poisons,'' said Dr. Chris Bradfield, a professor of oncology at the University of Wisconsin's McArdle Laboratory for Cancer Research. ''There's a lot of trepidation and uncertainty.''
The British arm of Friends of the Earth issued a report earlier this year called ''Crisis in Chemicals,'' in which it argued that genetic studies would make it easier to link a chemical to a disease, increasing the chances of winning liability lawsuits. ''Don't say we didn't warn you,'' the report concludes.
The gene studies may also be used to determine how sensitive an individual is to a particular compound, since that depends on one's genetic makeup.
Such tests will allow doctors to pick medicines that are best for a particular patient. But they will also raise social issues. Should, for example, workers with particular genes be kept out of jobs that entail exposure to certain chemicals? And, regulators may come under pressure to tighten pollution standards to protect the small fraction of the population that is most sensitive to a particular substance.
So even as they work to develop the technology, drug and chemical industry scientists fear that the technique will be used before it is ready and that the data will be misinterpreted, leading to bans on useful drugs or chemicals. ''We have a lot of things that raise red flags,'' said Dr. Joseph F. Sina, editor of the journal In Vitro & Molecular Toxicology and a toxicologist at a major drug company. ''The problem we have is figuring out what red flag is meaningful.''
The risk, experts say, also goes the other way -- that a chip will fail to detect danger that would then be seen after people get exposed.
Genes, made of DNA, instruct the cell to produce proteins, which carry out most functions in the body. The pattern of gene activity can be quickly read by DNA chips. When genes, which are made of DNA, are active they make a chemical messenger called RNA that tells the cell to make a particular protein. By fishing out all this messenger RNA, scientists can tell which genes are active.
The DNA chips are pieces of glass or plastic about the size of a microscope slide that can contain thousands of genes. Usually, the messenger RNA from a cell is converted back to DNA and this DNA is then tagged with a flourescent dye and washed over the chip. Each piece of DNA will stick to the corresponding DNA on the chip, and each spot where this occurs will light up, producing a pattern of lights that show which genes in the cell were on or off.
