I'm relatively new to WP so please be gentle. I'm working on a site that requires me to try display an externally hosted web page on one of my WP pages.
I have no control over the attributes of this external page.
I require a width of 774 pixels without having a horizontal scroll bar.
I'm familiar with iframes and while not crazy about them it would be fine if I had the width to work with.
I've made numerous attempts at using .js to "squeeze" the iFrame content but while I know it's possible, I've come to the conclusion that actually doing this is beyond me. I just can't wrap my head around it.
Someone suggested using LightBox but unless I'm not getting something, I don't see how this would integrate in as a regular page in the site.
Another thing that I know is possible, but beyond my limited capacity, is to simply remove the sidebar on that specific page and not the others. Again – While I'm generally good at following step-by-step instructions, it seems all the dialogue on this that I've found requires me to actually know what I'm doing.
I'd prefer just to remove the sidebar and let the frame take the whole width rather than to shrink the page in the iFrame, but I could live with either solution if it worked.
Can anyone suggest a way to do this that I might be able to grasp?

MONTGOMERY, Ala. ----- Auburn Montgomery senior Eran Franks was selected the ninth recipient of the Army ROTC Athletic Achievement Award for the 2012-13 school year on Wednesday, for his efforts both on and off the baseball field.
Criteria for the Army ROTC Athletic Achievement Award includes being certified for eligibility and involved in participation of a varsity sport; performance on the field or court during the previous two weeks; contributions to the team's success through their individual leadership skills, their commitment to teamwork, their extra effort during practice and their demonstration of sportsmanship; and performance off the field of play, including academic success, character and exemplary community outreach.
During the two weeks of his nomination, Franks helped the Warhawks to a 5-1 mark, with all six games counting toward the Southern States Athletic Conference standings. In those contests, Franks posted a 2-0 record on the mound, tossing complete games in each outing. He struck out seven and walked just two, while recording his first career shutout with a 3-0 victory against Southern Poly.
The Boaz, Ala., native, has also adding hitting to his resume, where he finished the span with a .400 batting average, going 8 for 20 in the contests. He drove in two runs, scored two more and worked two walks.
For the year, Franks currently leads the team with six victories and a 2.37 earned run average. His 57 innings pitched also tops the squad. At the plate, he is hitting .361 with 14 runs batted in.
"Eran has been a key contributor for our program through his hard work and leadership," assistant coach Clay Booth said. "One of our primary starting pitchers, he recently came to us and said he could get the job done as our designated hitter as we battled injuries. He has not regularly hit since his freshman season in college and has stepped in and done an admirable job. On the mound, he is a bulldog and will leave everything that he has on the field. He will do anything he needs to help this team."
Along with his success on the field, Franks has also participated in several community service projects. Recently he and the baseball team traveled to Millbrook to assist the Alabama Wildlife Federation at a local pond. Half of the team helped catch catfish in a pond that had been drained of water, while the other half repaired fishing poles in a separate area.
Academically, Franks sports a 3.76 grade point average, while majoring in criminal justice. He has been named to Athletic Director Honor Roll in all three semesters at AUM.
In addition to Franks, softball sophomores Cassie Daniels and Katie Spain, as well as junior women's tennis standout Chanel Cunningham, were nominated for the award.

Children or Husband first?
Putting your children on pedestals and before your marriage is when you choose to put your children's wants before your spouse's needs (or even his/her wants) consciously and on a consistent basis so that your spouse is always taking a back seat. It's putting your children up as your little idols, doing everything in your life to please them all of the time without any disregard for the one whom you are bound in Holy Matrimony.
That is taking the delicate balancing act and throwing it completely out the window.
I'm finding the older I get, the less I like "pat" phrases in Christendom. Perhaps I'll add this one to my list, it's a ridiculous oversimplification in my mind. I'm not trying to pick on you at all, posters here just know I'm odd like that and I have a lot of beefs with oversimplified phrases we Christians use. :)

I think the husband first kids second thing can definitely be taken too far, but then again there are the mothers who let the marriage bed become so full of children that the husband is driven to take permanent refuge on the couch, and that's not healthy either.
This culture does not idolize children. It infantilizes and indulges them, and simultaneously disrespects them and implies they are a burden and a punishment for sex, and that before they are born, they are fair game to be killed for convenience. :(
6yrs infertility, 2m/c, hypothyroidism, PCOS
Proud mama to my sweet girls, E (2/6/12) and H (7/30/14) and EDD 11/5/16 - oops, we did it again!
A way I didn't think of before, but makes a lot of sense.
Dee - I still don't understand what part is oversimplified... And a pat...
In my opinion, DH comes first. I think consistently putting kids in front of your marriage is very dangerous and even at just 30 years old I have seen several marriages of close friends dissolve because of this. It is all about balance
Practical ways that I hope to put DH first are:
- trying to get my kids on a sleep schedule where they go to bed early so that we have time together in the evenings.
- leaving kids with loving and trustworthy babysitters so that we can have dates... even if kids are crying when I leave!
- putting my kid in something safe (swing, pack and play, etc) for a few moments so I can hug, kiss and give my husband my attention for a few minutes when he gets home
- praying with my husband everynight
- NOT allowing my children to sleep in our bed at any age (with the possible exception of thunderstorms!) Our bed is our time to cuddle, make love, talk, rest, pray, etc.
- putting my kids in the church nursery so we can put our attention on the worship and sermon
Putting my DH first does not mean I let my kids go hungry or leave them unsupervised. Thats not good common sense. I think it really is a balance and that balance will be different for each family. it is just important to not loose your foundation when you have kids.
It's oversimplified, plain and simple. There are plenty of times where the child NEEDS to come before the spouse because the spouse doesn't have a need at that time, or does but agrees that the child's need is more pressing. A good Christian father and husband will understand when a pressing need of his child needs to come before his own wants and needs.
God -> Husband -> Child or the marriage will fail is trite. It's frankly ridiculous in my mind, because that order simply isn't always the case, again based on multiple factors of wants versus needs.
Perhaps everyone assumes "duh, of course we're only talking about wants, of course the kid should go first if there is a need" but that's the rub - pat and trite comments or phrases Christians make that assume everyone is on the same page are terrible. Non-Christians are not on the same page. Baby Christians may not be on the same page. Goodness, even mature Christians may not be on the same page.
I am in no way insinuating that children should come before spouse when wants are weighed with wants, or that my husband is in the backseat. Far from it. I try very hard to lay boundaries on "Mommy and Daddy time" and do things for my DH that my children hate (ie: make steamed spinach for dinner.)
That's my issue. Perhaps I overcomplicate things, but my life has many factors (read: multiple children) and weighing all of those needs and wants and prioritizing them is a challenge. When in doubt, prayer is always best and submission to a Godly man is a relief :)

"Jesus didn't mean for us to be decaffeinated." - Donnabelle
The aged women likewise that they be in behavior as becometh holiness, not false accusers, not given to much wine, teachers of good things;
That they might teach the young women to be sober, TO LOVE THEIR HUSBANDS, TO LOVE THEIR CHILDREN (caps added for emphasis).
Notice the order, we see that the order is to love our husbands, then to love our children. This can be very difficult for many women, even women in the body of Christ. But this is the order that I choose to follow as I am instructed in the Word.
Every child born into the world is a new thought of God, an ever fresh and radiant possibility.

[Spoiler Warning]
[Obviously deliberate on the part of the original comic creators and the film makers to get a decent twist payoff].
Goof: Cutting off a person's limb is extremely painful and one could pass out from loss of blood and pain and eventually die. There's no way Sam and Reno could have cut off that many limbs and still been able to continue playing poker, not to mention be able to hold the cards after the second finger was cut off, they would have passed out after the second limb was cut off as well, leading to possibly death. Plus the amount of blood around them would have been a bit messy.
In the opening wraparound segment, The Crypt Keeper does not say the title of the story.
Crypt Keeper Wardrobe: In the opening wraparound segment, the Crypt Keeper is dressed as a card dealer. In the closing wraparound segment, the Crypt Keeper is dressed in his traditional hooded robe cooking fingers in a frying pan.
Reno: Sorry, I took so long to answer the question. Which finger?
[Opening wraparound segment with the Crypt Keeper dressed as a card dealer and dealing cards.]
The Crypt Keeper: You know kiddies after a night of slithering through the sickening slime of my crawly crypt, I take a little tip from the Marquis De Sade. He likes to unwind with a little red hot poker. Tonight's tale from my collection of terror tomes is about a couple of real sharpies who'll do anything for a stab at the jackpot. So ante up fellas. The game's about to begin.
[Closing wraparound segment with the Crypt Keeper cooking fingers in a frying pan]
The Crypt Keeper: I've heard of giving someone the finger, but this is ridiculous. But at the risk of going out on a limb, I've got to hand it to Crevice and Forney. They'd do anything to elbow their way to the top. Dinner time!
EC Comic Connection: Story adapted from Tales From the Crypt #32, Oct-Nov 1952. Story by Al Feldstein with art by Fred Peters.
In the comic story the gamblers names are Lou Crebis and Gus Forney, in the episode, their names are Reno Crevice and Sam Forney.
Walter Hill actually used some of the original panels from the comic story to help storyboard this episode.

It works. After 2weeks, the cream was working as described. My skin appeared smoother, the tone started to even, and I looked a few years younger. I have used the product for several months; always before bed and I can't live without it. My store always runs out of the youth code products (Of course, Walmart gives the best price).
Oh my goodness. I rarely gush about beauty products. In fact they usually just make me blotchy or make my face break out. This was a freebie or I probably would not have even tried it. When I got it in the mail, I patch tested it on my arm and was reassured it would be fine. It is greaseless, nearly odorless and feels quite nice. The first night I put it on my face I was still a little nervous but in the morning they had a fan. My face was smoother! My occasional redness was not present and my pores seemed smaller. A little red bump I had on the chin was less noticable too. I do not wear full coverage makeup every day, usually just a bit of tinted sunscreen and a tinted lip balm. On the third day I did wear some real makeup to go out that evening. It went on smoother, I needed less coverage. Once I was done with it, it looked almost airbrushed. It seemed to cover my freckles (I hope those are still all freckles) up completely for once. My routine is simple now, a bit of Cetaphil cleanser for sensitive skin, some Youth Code, sunscreen, lip balm and out the door. After a week I have had people ask me if I lost weight, a couple people told me I look so great and one woman at work actually pulled me aside to ask me what I was using. I happily told her about Youth Code. I also got carded. Seriously, carded for real. I actually had to dig for my license in my purse afraid I would not get my cocktail. I am forty years old this past October. Impressive! I have tried lots of products in the past, everything from drugstore to La Mer (trust me that was a gift, I can't afford that in reality). I was using Clinique's rosacea and dark spot correctors more recently. No more. This works better and is so much cheaper. No gloppiness, no odd scents, no irritation. I am sold!
i was skeptical about this product but decided to try it based on the reviews. at 18 and having dark under eye circles was really starting to bug me. . I have been using this cream every morning and night for the past week and can already tell a decrease in darkness. the product it's self smells great, rubs on smoothly and leaves my skin soft ! i would tell friends to try this product but give it time some may not see results as quick as others! (the container may look small but dont let that fool you. I have been using this for about a week and still have plenty left. i only use about a dime size amount in each use if that.)
I saw this product right around the time I realized I no longer needed acne care for my face. (I am about to turn 25). So I switched out my old acne moisturizer for this decadent, extremely moisturizing cream, and I started taking two vitamin E pills every night before bed. The very first time I implemented this new regimen, I woke up and my face was absolutely beautiful. I never saw the point to face creams before but now I see what a huge difference they can make the next day. I use this cream after I shower in the morning and at bedtime after washing my face. I cannot emphasize what a huge difference this cream has made to my skin's feel and look. Definitely recommended for young skin.
I am 70 and this cream really works! I have only used it for one week and already my skin is softer and the wrinkles not so noticable. Highly recommend it.
In one word AMAZING!!!! If you aren't sure whether to order this line of skin care..do it!
The creams are rich and seem like they melt like butter when they touch your skin. Easy to use system, I would recomend the Intensive Syrum to boost results. Makes my skin look so rested and refreshed. Also helping deminish my sun spots after a summer in the sun! Try it and you'll love it!
Love love love this stuff. I know nothing is going to erase the wrinkles on my face but this stuff is great. It made my skin look so youthful and dewy without being greasy. I am acne prone and it was just fine, didnt break me out or anything. The wrinkles around my eyes appeared to be a little less defined after a few uses. Skin was hydrated and soft!
I am only 23, but I got this free sample in the mail and had to write a review about this stuff! I used the cream given in the sample pack until the last drop. It smells wonderful, the texture is smooth and after applying I even felt the fingers I used to apply it get softer. Never been one to buy makeup or beauty products ever, but am preparing for my wedding so wanted to look my best. The price is a little steep, and trying to cut corners by trying the cheaper stuff, Youth Code is worth the price because it doesn't break me out. Plus coupons are always great too :) I recommend this to any age, men and women.
Very Easy to apply, my skin absorbs the product really fast and is not greasy at all, my skin feels really soft and I can totally see a difference! I really recommend it! you won't regret it. I use it in the morning and at night before bed time.
I have been using L'Oreal Youth Code for about 2 weeks now, I can see a difference! It is very easy to apply and makes my skin feel velvety soft. I love it, and would highly recommend it!
I received a free sample of this from Smilely360 and I love it! All my fine lines are all but gone! My skin is smoother and it smells great too. I would highly recommend this product.
This product makes my skin feel velvet smooth. It does not leave me greasy! I am seeing a reduction in fine lines after continued use of 2 weeks. Love it
This anti aging cream has made my face look abt 10 years younger (I'm 40). I use it twice a day after the serum and put a little extra on around my eye corners and laugh line at night. Before using this L'Oreal line my skin was just ok, but now I'm constantly getting compliments on how young and glowing my face looks. I tried the entire line, but I've only found the day/night cream and serum to work for me. I really recommend trying it out for a week or two. If you don't notice any difference or improvement simply return it to the store for a refund.
I have been using L'Oreal Youth Code Day/Night cream for 2 weeks and I have to say I love this stuff. It goes on so easy and my skin is really dry and this cream feels great on my skin. I think it is working to make my skin look more awake.
I received this product as a sample and am really liking how its making my skin feel. I have been using it for about a week now and can already see a difference. The tone of my skin is more even . It is not at all greasy. Goes on very smooth and you can feel it from the first time you use it , it makes your skin feel soft. I will keep using this product and even buy it when my sample is finished.
This was a very nice moisturizing cream and I have enjoyed using it. It seems thick like a night cream but when I apply it it is light, absorbs quickly and is not greasy. It also has a nice fragrance. I liked this product. I have used the entire container that was sent to me and I do intend to purchase this product. My friends are also interested in trying Youth Code.
I am a 35 year old woman, who has went thru a TON of facial lotions because they make my face feel more oily. This L'Oreal Youth Code did NOT make excess oil on my face. I LOVE it !! I will not be going to the clinique counter for a bottle of lotion that 28 bucks, I will save the gas and the extra cash by switching. Thank You L'Oreal :)
I was very excited to be chosen to sample this lotion. I absolutely love it! It is very light and absorbs quickly. It leaves my skin so soft and smooth - and the smell is lovely. I noticed a difference in my skin in only a couple of days of using. I have been sharing my secret with everyone - this ismy new favorite face cream!
This is a great product, and being that I have fair, sensitive skin, it was great for me. It didn't have an overpowering scent, it went on and absorbed easily, and was not greasy nor left a residue. It made my skin brighter & my face tighter.
I received a sample of this product and tried it every night for 2 weeks. I love the way it makes my skin feel and also I've been told it makes me look younger. My fine lines on my face disappeared! I would highly recommend this to everyone!!

Becoming a parent is a turning point in a person's life with both positive and negative repercussions. There is no turning back; once a parent, the job never goes away. There is no probationary period and no training. Nothing really prepares you for the never ending 24 hour-a-day job of caring for your own child.
When a new mom brings her baby home, she may experience a number of different issues:
There is a group of physical and emotional feelings which we call "after-baby blues". Fifty to eighty percent of women giving birth in North America have some degree of this.
Changes in hormone and chemical levels; feeling overwhelmed by new roles; fatigue
If these feelings last more than 2 weeks or begin to interfere with your daily functioning, it may indicate a more serious problem. The woman should seek help from a health care professional such as her family doctor. (See postpartum depression).
Realize that you are learning. Don't expect too much of yourself. With time and patience, you will get to know and understand what your baby needs.
Becoming parents is far more than physically and emotionally caring for a child. Ultimately the child will be best cared for if the parents can also care for and nurture each other and work as a team.
It requires planning, energy, and positive thinking. It requires a couple to look at each other in a new way; not just as partners but as parents. The new roles we must assume of mother and father are foreign to us. Everything is new and unknown.
1. Loss of warmth and closeness with the partner.
2. Change in sexual relationship
3. Change in social activities/friendships
4. Change in the number of arguments/tension level

Divorce is a very difficult step in life, as it affects the future of everyone involved. Splitting up assets and deciding who gets the children can make people lose control over their lives. So, it is very important to weigh all the options carefully. Here are two of the most common.
Hiring a mediator
When taking this path, the couple addresses a mediator capable of helping both parties to reach an agreement mutually beneficial. The mediator does not have to be a lawyer, but knowledge regarding family law is compulsory.
A good mediator has to be impartial and not favor any of the sides. Still, both parties should also seek advice from a lawyer before signing any settlement. When hiring a mediator, the involved parties have better chances of parting ways on friendly terms. Since the main aspect of mediation is eliminating conflict, children might not have to suffer in the process so much. Mediators are more cost-efficient and discrete, so parties are more likely to reach a swift agreement.
However, if the negotiation process is a failure, the parties might waste a lot of money. Also, keep in mind that a poorly drafted agreement can be appealed, leading to legal complications. Also, since both parts disclose voluntarily how much they own, some assets may not be disclosed. It all comes down to trust in the end.
Getting a lawyer
Most couples decide to file for a lawsuit in order to reach a divorce settlement. This is an option when the parties cannot reach a mutual agreement. If one party wants to end the marriage, while the other doesn't there is not much point to negotiate.
When going on this path don't hire a lawyer that will instigate to conflict before going to court. Successful divorce lawyers will advise their clients to try to reach a reasonable agreement. Still, if the reasoning is not an option, the matter will be solved in court. The downside of taking such action is letting a judge, oblivious of the situation, makes decision for both parts.
Evaluate your situation
Mediation may seem less demanding both financially and psychologically. If the parties can still have a civilized conversation and collaborate, then this is the right path. However, if the relationship between you and your ex is resentful, this may not be a good idea for you. Also, it is not recommended to resort to mediation when: you have trust issues regarding assets, you have a problem sustaining your opinion, and you are afraid about confronting your ex or if there were problems regarding addictions. If a divorce cannot be carried out peacefully, then it should be taken to court.
There is also the option of asking a lawyer's advice while going through the mediation process. This way you can find out about your rights and options, while being coached through the agreement process. Also, if you want to escape from the hassle, you can have a lawyer prepare all the necessary paperwork. Consulting services are not that expensive and most of the times you don't have to make a large deposit.

Most Helpful
Excellent recipe. Nice combination of herbs they do not detract from the flavor of the prawns only enhance it,. I used large parawns (16 to the pound) and cut the recipe in half. Too cold to BBQ so I broiled them Thanks Ben, great recipe
Excellent recipe, Ben. I skipped the butter and cut back o n the oil. Still had wonderful flavor and will be a definite repeat here next time we can get ahold of those special large prawns.
I have used this recipe for 2 years and have never told anyone how delish this is. I grow my herbs so it is always exciting to use my own stuff. Excellant

nice to know Scott White tried to deliver a withdrawal form on time, blew it, and now is trying to benefit from his incompetence.
Kudos to the elections department -- they have a deadline of 4:30 p.m., but their fax machine timer is off by hours and they receive forms by fax?
What a well run office.
Unless that was a lie.
Guess Mr. White is thankful the county where he works is incompetent, too.
And the judge noted that the county didn't have any explanation as to where the form went for few hours until it was "seen" the next day -- or why the elections office actually posted White as having withdrawn on time-- more "errors" in county government.
Where White works. Where he decided to withraw. Where he used county office and county fax machine to withdraw. Oh yes that'd be yet another "error" in county government as that's illegal use of govt. resources to campaign.
Kudos to county government! Let's promote the people who run it, to higher office!
"Elect me, I couldn't manage to file my own withdrawal form on time!"

Never Fall for a Pretty Face
Another friend of mine found herself snapping up an entire suite of appliances because she loved the way their handles matched. Sure, you love those sexy grates and cunning knobs (see "Never make an impulse buy," previously). But when the electronic ignition on the range blows, leaving you with no way to cook on the day before Thanksgiving—or the icemaker quietly springs a leak, covering the floor with an inch of water, you will no longer recall that magic moment when you fell in love across a crowded showroom floor.

My name is Micaela Baranello and I am a musicologist. I'm currently a postdoctoral fellow at Smith College in Northampton, Massachusetts. I specialize in Viennese operetta, which is the topic of my book-in-progress, and I've also done a lot of work on Richard Strauss. In my free time I go to whatever opera I can find and I have always enjoyed writing reviews. While I hope my writing here is informative, and my perspective is unavoidably that of a historian, I consider my voice here primarily critical rather than musicological.
I particularly like writing about Baroque opera, Wagner, Strauss, and Regietheater. I've written this blog through years of dissertation-writing at Princeton, a year of archival research in Vienna, a publishing internship in Munich (fun with critical editions), and a lot of time living in New Jersey. Most of my non-blog writing is scholarly, but I've also contributed to the New York Times Arts and Leisure section and occasionally write program notes. I recently worked as a dramaturg for the Bard Music Festival, and I also sometimes work as a stage manager, including the Princeton University Opera Theater's productions of Il ritorno d'Ulisse in patria and Albert Herring. You can see my scholarly work here.

How it works
The Book Trust Program is a national literacy program and a step-by-step process that ensures students have the opportunity to fall in love with reading. Book Trust Teachers implement the Book Trust Program in their classrooms every month with their students. They prioritize empowering student choice of reading materials, building a strong culture of classroom literacy, and engaging families around reading.
As the program is implemented, teachers watch as even reluctant readers begin to love and find joy in reading. By creating a powerful reading environment, the Book Trust Program helps schools to meet their reading goals and to ensure more students reach their potential.
Book Trust supports teachers by providing training and research behind best practices for developing early literacy. Here you can find resources, lesson plans, and classroom videos for implementing the three components of the Book Trust Program.
Empower Choice
September through May, the Book Trust Program provides students with the opportunity to choose and own their own books. Choice is a critical first step to ensuring that a child has the opportunity to fall in love with reading. Choice is also a tool that empowers students in their reading and learning.
Choice in the classroom
Readers are most engaged and excited about their reading when they are able to choose their own books. Because choice is one of the most powerful methods for enhancing the motivation to read, Book Trust Teachers make class time each month for choice and support students to find books that excite them, interest them, and help them grow as readers.
Book Trust Teachers use the monthly book ordering process to build anticipation and excitement for their students around reading. Students track The Book Box and anxiously await the arrival of their books after the order is placed with Scholastic Reading Club. Click the 'view resources' button below to find lesson plans for tracking orders.
Building Financial Literacy
Students choose $7 worth of books each month from September to May in the Book Trust Program. Book Trust Teachers leverage this teachable moment by helping students to plan and use a monthly book budget, work with factors, navigate forms, and develop other math skills. Check out the budgeting worksheets and lesson plans below to learn more about how the Book Trust Program supports the National Standards for Financial Literacy.
build a classroom culture of literacy
Teachers play a vital role in creating excitement and joy around reading for their students. Book Trust Teachers make class time every month to celebrate the arrival of books and to nurture a culture of reading among their students. Book Trust Teachers prioritize class time for the Book Trust Program because a strong culture of literacy directly impacts their students' achievement.
When the Book Box arrives every month, Book Trust classrooms transform into a place of celebration around books and reading. Research shows that the act of celebrating books and reading is central to making reading fun and enjoyable for all students. Giving students the chance to celebrate and find fun in reading helps reluctant readers feel more welcome and relaxed at school. For tips about celebrating books in classroom, click the 'view resources' button below.
Book Trust Teachers build a strong classroom culture by encouraging sharing between students and teaching students how to give Book Trust book talks. Sharing books by reading aloud is an important activity for reading success. Sharing books with others fosters healthy reading behaviors and cultivates a culture of reading in the classroom. By encouraging and making time for sharing books, Book Trust Teachers build an environment where reading is valued, celebrated, and ever-present. Read more about the research below.
Non-cognitive skill development
The Book Trust Program is a platform that Book Trust Teachers use to teach and explore important non-cognitive skills. Research shows that 'soft skills' such as motivation, goal direction, self-efficacy, patience, and self-regulation are critically important for students to practice at a young age. For Tip Sheets and Lesson Plans on how to use Book Trust to support students in non-cognitive skill development, check out the 'view resources' button below.
The Book Trust Program is unique because it happens every month of the school year. Monthly routine builds the habits and behaviors of good readers. Book Trust Teachers establish routines and use the Book Trust checklist poster to instill reading habits in their students around choice, independent reading, and partner reading. By practicing and implementing these routines around reading, Book Trust Teachers build a classroom culture where the joy of reading and learning is discussed every day.
Engage Families
Helping families create a culture of reading in the home is an investment toward strong reading behaviors in the classroom. The Book Trust Program serves as a bridge between classrooms and families when students take home books every month to build their home library. Book Trust Teachers leverage the Book Trust Program as a platform to discuss reading with families, to provide them with tips for reading with their children, and to strengthen relationships between families and their child's learning.
Students participating in Book Trust become book owners with a growing home library. By addressing the "book gap" between children of middle-income and low-income families, Book Trust is ensuring that all children have the opportunities that book owners have. Students who are book owners are more likely to read above their expected reading level than students who do not own books. For more about the research that supports book ownership, click the 'view resources' button below.
Home Libraries
As students own and take home books every month in the Book Trust Program, they begin to build home libraries. Book Trust Teachers encourage students to create a special place for their books and ask them to share the place they've established as their "home library". All children, regardless of a family's economic status, benefit from a strong literacy environment in the home.
Family Reading Time
The Book Trust Program is a tool that Book Trust Teachers use to promote a family reading routine in the home. Book Trust Teachers encourage families to read nightly from the home library built from the Book Trust Program and provide families with tips for reading together with their children. When families make time for reading, students have a stronger relationship with books and do better in school. For tips and resources for parents, click the 'view resources' button below.
Teacher Support
Supporting Book Trust Teachers is the top priority of the Book Trust support team. Book Trust Teachers, please get in touch if you need assistance with ordering or implementing the Book Trust Program.
Give us a call at 720.259.8050 or message us at firstname.lastname@example.com.

Yes you can enter both your checking and credit card info and choose either one when paying. Be careful though paypal defaults to the checking account option and when you go to complete your purchase pay close attention to a link on the page to select an alternate payment method and choose to pay with your credit card instead if you wish.

<g:select/> that translates to this html:
<select id="myselect" name="myselect">
<option value="r">RED</option>
<option value="g">GREEN</option>
<option value="b">BLUE</option>
I would also like the value to be preselected from a bean when the page reloads.
I'm doing this inside a so I have a table with each row having a separate option box.
I'm currently accomplishing this in the below html:

Amateur Lawyers' Poor Record; History Is Discouraging for Suspect in a Capital Case
By SOMINI SENGUPTA
Published: September 29, 1998
The murder trial of James Allen Gordon just under way in a third-floor courtroom in Queens looks much like any other criminal case. Two court-appointed lawyers, Chris Renfroe and Russell Morea, interrogate a parade of potential jurors. The defendant, unshackled each morning as he is brought into the courtroom, sits quietly off to one side, occasionally scribbling notes on a yellow legal pad.
But this case is unlike any other in the state. Mr. Gordon, a 10th-grade dropout, is the first defendant to represent himself in a death penalty case since capital punishment was reinstated in New York three years ago. He is accused of murdering three women two years ago in Jamaica, Queens.
Justice Thomas A. Demakos of State Supreme Court has allowed Mr. Gordon to retain his court-appointed lawyers as advisers, and so far, Mr. Gordon, 26, has let them handle the delicate job of jury selection. He has already dismissed lawyers furnished by the State Capital Defenders Office, an agency created by the Legislature to insure adequate representation in capital cases. Mr. Gordon has not specified his reasons for seeking to represent himself, saying simply, ''I'm the one who is sitting in this chair.''
But in representing himself, Mr. Gordon has now joined a small group of defendants in capital cases nationwide who have taken their fates into their own hands -- with mostly unsuccessful results.
His predecessors include Pernell Ford, an Alabama man who, according to the lawyers handling his appeal, told jurors that God would resurrect the man he was accused of killing; Kenneth Dwayne Dunn, who a psychiatrist said was having delusions of becoming a lawyer or a king, and Willie Louis Russaw, who barely uttered a word during his trial in Alabama, which, lawyers who represented him in a later trial said, lasted less than two days.
They were all convicted and sentenced to death. Only Mr. Russaw's conviction was overturned.
The United States Supreme Court has ruled that a defendant has the constitutional right to represent himself in court -- a right that can be denied only if the courts deem the person mentally incompetent. Still, most defense lawyers shudder at the prospect of self-representation in a death penalty trial, arguing that it creates an unequal playing field and threatens to make a circus out of the criminal justice system. Prosecutors who have tried pro se cases, as these trials are called, say they are often forced to respond to frivolous requests and delaying tactics. Almost unequivocally, lawyers on both sides agree that such a defense does not bode well for the defendants.
''Juries tend to resent a great deal people who represent themselves, but people who are accused of violent felonies in particular,'' said Bryan Stevenson, executive director of the Equal Justice Initiative of Alabama, a nonprofit group that handles appeals for death row inmates. ''The experience has not been encouraging.''
While jurors often can be won over by an amiable defense lawyer, said Bob Morrow, a former deputy attorney general with the Alabama Attorney General's office, ''defendants who are defending themselves don't realize how mad they make the jury.
''Judges usually bend over backwards to give them a lot of leeway,'' he said, ''so it's not pleasant for prosecutors to go through.''
In Queens, Judge Demakos has permitted Mr. Gordon, a tall, lean man with gold-rimmed glasses and closely cropped hair, to ask his court-appointed lawyers to take over any part of the proceedings -- so long as he does not interrupt them midway. Since the start of jury selection last Wednesday, he appears to have heeded the advice.
Whether or when he will take over the trial is unclear. But when he does, he will face lawyers who the Queens District Attorney, Richard A. Brown, says are among his most qualified deputies, including the lead prosecutor, James C. Quinn, the executive assistant district attorney.
He will also face a survivor of the July 1996 attack and triple-murder that he is accused of committing. Prosecutors have said that Mr. Gordon went to the home of his victims, just down the street from where he lived at the time, in a section of Jamaica called Bricktown, to collect a drug debt. According to the authorities, he raped one woman and fatally shot her in the head before shooting and killing two others and bludgeoning a fourth with a hammer. The fourth woman, Zakkiyah Holliman, and another woman, who escaped by jumping out of a window, are expected to testify.
Mr. Gordon, who attended Beach Channel High School in Far Rockaway, was on parole on a drug conviction when the women were killed. The police said his wallet was found at the crime scene. He was arrested a month later at a rooming house in Memphis.
The case also presents a peculiar challenge for the Queens District Attorney. A former judge who personally opposes capital punishment, Mr. Brown said he chose this as his first death penalty case in part because of the ''deliberate, vicious and callous'' nature of the crime.

UPDATE: Wunderlich Securities Maintains Waste Connections at Buy on Outlook for 2013
Wunderlich Securities reiterated its Buy rating and $38 price target on Waste Connections (NYSE: WCN) following meetings with the company's management.
Wunderlich Securities noted, "We met one-on-one with CEO Ron Mittelstaedt and visited with investors and CFO Worthing Jackman in NYC last week. The best is yet to come in solid waste with FY13 starting with positive fundamental momentum not seen in several years; the new investment in energy waste has multiple points of growth to get to $500mm in 3-5 years. Since 3Q12 earnings paper prices have improved sequentially for WCN to $140/ton and fuel has leveled off around $4.00 per gallon. There is a rush to close deals sensitive to capital gains rising by Dec. 31 and WCN is actively working several."
Waste Connections closed at $32.92 on Friday.

For a given software, which type of installation you prefer and why?
Doing a fresh install usually gives you the best performance. However, it also means wasting a lot of time reconfiguring everything and making them work like before.
Upgrade and patch is the easiest way to do it, but I've sometimes had a lot of problems with this approach (especially with Firefox). The big advantage is that all the settings are kept intact (if the patcher or installer is worth anything). I've recently upgraded a Windows Vista install to Windows 7 and everything worked extremely well; all the software was in place, all the drivers were working. If I'd have to do it again, I'd go the same route.
Thats's really vague. For an OS, slipstreaming patches pre-install tends to save time, but no matter what, you'll want to patch. I suppose the same is true for anything, So.. both. I prefer a nice slipstreamed install disk, with patches once thats done, and fresh installs ONLY as needed.Life's too short for constant reinstalls ;)
Depends, do you have an example? This should also be a community wiki if the original question is clarified.

Muncie, IN
Glee co-creators Ryan Murphy and Brad Falchuk, whose earlier series Nip/Tuck aired for seven seasons on FX, are returning to the network with a new drama.
The cable channel announced today it has ordered the pilot for American Horror Story, a "wildly brilliant" one-hour drama that Falchuk says will "bring the horror genre to television but with our own subversive sensibilities." Little else was revealed about the premise.
"American Horror Story is a project that Brad and I have been discussing for a while," Murphy said in a statement. "[FX Networks President] John Landgraf and I have maintained a wonderful relationship since Nip/Tuck ended its run and he gave me an open invitation to develop a new show for the network. FX is the perfect place for this series and we look forward to a great homecoming."
Murphy will direct the pilot, which will begin production in April. Twentieth Century Fox Television is producing.
However, Glee fans shouldn't worry that American Horror Story will draw the duo's attention from the hit Fox series.
"And as for Glee, fans can rest assured that we haven't taken our eyes off that ball for a second," Murphy said. "We've broken the stories for the season's remaining episodes and we've got big things planned for our little glee club as it strives to make it past Regionals to the all-important Nationals competition in New York City."
um…..well…..that is pretty cool….
They didn't say what it was about…
In recent years I've realized that 'Subversive' is another word for 'same old stuff we've been doing for the past 30 years.'

LaserJet CP1025nw Color
Company: HP
HP LaserJet CP1025nw Color is the most affordable SOHO (small office, home office) color laser printer HP has ever produced, and the best printer in this category we have reviewed at MyMac. Unpacking takes a couple of minutes. Weight and bulk are minimal. Wireless software installation and setup take a few more minutes, without any glitches whatsoever. Color laser toner ships pre-installed, requiring no annoying and possibly messy acquaintance with the printer's internal components. In a word, hallelujah.
The printer communicates with computers via USB, Ethernet cable, or WiFi. The latter is being used to test HP LaserJet CP1025nw Color because wireless printing is the SOHO trend. HP claims this model is the "world's smallest color laser printer," and it certainly has a tiny footprint and physical presence, plus attractive design.
A Macintosh sends its document info to the printer almost instantly, and completed prints emerge seconds later. When I click PRINT on my MacBook Pro, which is in my house, the printer completes basic print jobs before I can dash out to my studio office, thirty feet away, as fast as I can run.

Indonesia Parliament Approves Nasution as Central Bank Governor
Indonesian lawmakers approved a proposal that Bank Indonesia Acting Governor Darmin Nasution take the job permanently, ending a 14-month impasse over the central bank's leadership.
The 54 lawmakers representing Commission XI, the body charged with considering Darmin's nomination, agreed by consensus late yesterday to approve him following two days of questioning.
President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono nominated Nasution, 61, to be central bank chief in June, seeking to plug a gap in the country's economic leadership after the previous governor, Boediono, resigned in May 2009 to become Yudhoyono's running mate in last year's presidential election. Indonesia has left its benchmark interest rate at a record low of 6.5 percent since August 2009.
"The approval is expected to increase market confidence after the post was left vacant for more than a year," said Juniman, an economist at PT Bank Internasional Indonesia in Jakarta. "The market wants to know what monetary policies will be taken by the central bank."
Yesterday's approval will be formalized at a plenary meeting. Nasution will be the 14th governor in the central bank's 57-year history.
Rate Decisions
Indonesia has held back from tightening monetary policy even as neighbors from Malaysia to India raised borrowing costs this year to avert asset bubbles and contain inflation in a region that's leading the global economic recovery. The country's benchmark interest rate is at the lowest level since it was introduced in July 2005.
Southeast Asia's largest economy expanded 5.7 percent in the first quarter from a year earlier, the fastest pace since 2008. Consumer prices, which rose 5.05 percent in June, are forecast to climb in a range of 5.8 percent to 6 percent this year, Bank Indonesia Deputy Governor Hartadi Sarwono said on July 20.
Standard & Poor's raised Indonesia's sovereign credit rating to a 12-year high of BB from BB- on March 12, with a positive outlook. S&P and Moody's Investors Service both rank Indonesia two levels below investment grade, while Fitch Ratings on Jan. 25 raised it to one step below investment.
Nasution received his doctorate in economics from University of Paris, Sorbonne, France in 1986, according to the Bank Indonesia website. He was chairman of Indonesia's Capital Market and Financial Institution Supervisory Agency, or Bapepam, in 2006, and was director general of taxation at the Ministry of Finance before moving to the central bank.
Bank Indonesia is led by a board of governors consisting of one governor, one senior deputy governor and six deputy governors.

AbstractWe propose to demonstrate the feasibility of developing a small form factor, high-power long-range laser designator/rangefinder for intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance (ISR) platforms using an NP's proprietary technology, a compact high-powernarrow-linewidth fiber laser. The laser designator/rangefinder is based on coherent frequency-modulated continuous-wave (FMCW) reflectometry. This proposed approach promises a very long-range (hundreds kilometers) laser designator/rangefinder with lots ofadvantages over most commercial laser rangefinders based on pulsed lasers, including extremely small beam divergence, very high dynamic range and sensitivity, eye-safety, compactness, ruggedness, and mounting flexibility.

Why is playing games 'not useful'?
- why, sure, if you can find somebody to pay you money so that you can play games then it's useful to that somebody. Unless they are *forced* to pay you money for playing games, then it's not useful, it's useless and worse, it's oppressive.
By participating in consumption and consumption only and by not producing while consuming, your life is not in any way helpful to those, who are producing whatever you are consuming.
Let's make it easy for you: 100 people on an island. 10 are producing every single thing needed for the 100 to survive. Unless the 90 are providing sexual or other types of favours, they are not producing anything of any value to provide the 10 with a meaningful exchange for their production.
However if the 90 gang up against the 10 and the 10 do not have enough weapons to take out the 90 without dying themselves, the 90 can force the 10 to be the slaves of the 90.
The 90 then would be eating, drinking, living in houses, using energy and every resource and good produced by the 10.
You can say: without the 90, the 10 would have nothing to do. Of-course that's pure nonsense. Without the 90 the 10 would have more leasure and less worries as they only have to produce for the 10. The 90 are adding nothing except for the effort that needs to go into feeding the 90.

Has any come up with a solution for HDMI audio yet. I am going crazy with Windows 7.
Fatal1ty F190 HD motherboard with realtek ACL 888 onboard audio chip. ATI Radeo Xpress 1200 graphics. No audio at all. ATI HDMI audio driver says it installs, but it is nowhere to be found. Realtek Audio driver starts to install and then says it that no drivers support the package.
No audio shows up a lot for Windows 7 when you Google Windows 7 audio problems.
Is there a fix? And if not now, do you know of one coming? Otherwise, I may have to revert to XP.

Released: Nov 01st, 2003
Running Time: 96
Directors: Dirk Yates, Mike Donner, Todd Alan, Chad Donovan, Ed Maxxx
Company: All Worlds Video
Cast: Trent Atkins, Devon Barry, Chad Knight, Paul Johnson, Casey Williams, Jon Ashe, Dante Foxx, Danny Rios, Brett DiMineo, Barrett Long, Thomas Bond
Critical Rating: AAA
Genre: Gay and Bi
Five directors round up a first-rate cast for the latest from the All Worlds Resort in Palm Springs, California. As always, the resorts horny guests become part of the action as the camera pulls back to reveal them as the models go at it. This can be a bit disconcerting at times, but it's all in good fun. Chad Donovan directs Trent Atkins, Brett DiMineo (sporting a new cropped haircut and his usual big dong) and veteran Casey Williams. These three are all smooth and buff (Williams has an amazing body) and have a fun time poolside. Supercute Devon Barry and Chad Knight also get nasty in the pool, but the spectators even seem to get bored with this long, drawn-out sequence. Paul Johnson is as hot and hairy as ever as he flip-flops with tattooed Jon Ashe. Mike Donner gets solid performances from both. All World's latest "It" boy, Barrett Long, stars in the final scene with Danny Rios. Long is certainly well-hung but a rather lazy fuck and makes Rios do all the work. No matter, the picture quality of the DVD is good, and the All Worlds Resort looks as alluring as ever.
