GSD Course Bulletin - Fall 2010
This term's information was last refreshed on 08 MAY 2015 15:47:51.
Courses taught by Christian Werthmann
01211: Landscape Architecture III: Third Semester Core Studio (STU 0121100)
Landscape Architecture
Core Studio - 8 credits
Tuesday Thursday 12:30 - 6:00
Pierre Bélanger, Niall Kirkwood, Julia Watson, Christian Werthmann
Course Description
Addressing the inertia of urban planning and the overexertion of civil engineering in the 20th century, this course focuses on the design of large, complex, contaminated brownfield sites with a regional, ecological and infrastructural outlook. Employing the agency of regional ecology and landscape infrastructure as the dominant drivers of design, the studio involves the development of biodynamic and biophysical systems that provide flexible yet directive patterns for future urbanization. Through a series of contemporary mapping methods, field measures, case studies, readings and design investigations, the course results in a series of collaborative exercises leading to a large scale design project and future scenarios. Drawing from canonical case studies on regional reclamation strategies from across the world, the studio is further enhanced by a robust, regional representation program. Focusing on the metrics of geospatial representation and remote sensing, two intensive workshops throughout the term of the studio didactically deal with the interrelated subjects of regional cartography and site topography as operative and telescopic instruments of design across scales. Contributing to a complex, multi-layered profiling of the site as 'system' and the reformulation of program as 'process', the studio establishes a base platform for engaging an array of complex issues related to site contamination, biophysical systems, regional ecology, land cover, urban infrastructure and economic geography. Precluding conventional forms of urban development such as housing or retail development, the penultimate objective of the course is to explore and articulate the potential effectiveness of broader and longer range strategies where biophysical systems prefigure as the denominator for re-envisioning public infrastructures and regional urban economies in the future.
06212: Sustainability for Planning and Design (SCI 0621200)
Architecture, Landscape Architecture, Urban Planning and Design
Lecture - 2 credits
Thursday 10:00 - 11:30 Gund 109
Christian Werthmann
Course Description
This survey course will give a critical overview over the most pressing issues and tendencies surrounding the term Sustainability focusing on the specific role of the designer and planner. A series of lecturers will give a snapshot about the latest critical thinking regarding the Metrics of Sustainability, Ecological Urbanism, Landscape Urbanism, Eco-cities, Zero-Carbon Cities, Transportation Innovations, Food Webs, Urban Water Flows, Urban Poverty and Climate Change. The discussion will center on the city in its local, regional, national and global context thereby revealing the interdependence between architecture, landscape architecture, urban design and urban planning. At the end, students should have developed a new framework with shifted priorities, new concentrations and interests that they can explore in their further studies.Christian Werthmann is the instructor. Featured speakers include: Pierre Belanger, Herbert Dreiseitl, Alejandro Echeverri, Jane Hutton, Rahul Mehrotra, Mohsen Mostafavi, Spiro Pollalis, Matthias Schuler, and Charles Waldheim.

HOUSTON (April 1, 2013)--The U.S. Supreme Court Monday refused to review the case of Texas death row inmate Rickey Lynn Lewis, 50, who's scheduled to die next week for an East Texas slaying more than two decades ago.
Lewis, ,of Tyler, was on parole for a third burglary conviction when he was arrested for breaking into a Tyler-area home in September 1990, shooting the man who lived there to death and raping the shooting victim's wife.
He also stole the woman's truck and killed her dog.
She managed to climb out a bathroom window after the attack and call police.
Her testimony helped send Lewis to death row.
Lewis faces lethal injection April 9.

A horrible, horrible TV show, and an even more horrible movie. Unless you're a pedophile, in which case they're both pretty good. Still not as good as the Olsen twins' show, though. Or Sesame Street.

text: PPL Content on this page requires a newer version of Adobe Flash Player. You can't build a dividend portfolio without looking at utility stocks -- which brings us to PPL ( PPL). PPL is a utility stock that owns 11,200 megawatts of generation capacity, and provides regulated utility service to electricity customers in Pennsylvania, Kentucky, Virginia, Tennessee and the UK. PPL also distributes natural gas to Kentucky. Just a few years ago PPL was primarily a generation firm, earning three-fourths of its profits by selling power on the open market. Today, though, the firm has shifted its strategy towards the stable income of the regulated utility business. Stable, predictable income is the hallmark of a stellar dividend stock, and PPL has managed to pick up its regulated exposure while still keeping its uniqueness. A big differentiator for PPL is its energy distribution unit in the UK -- that expertise in a foreign market should open the door to other overseas utility operations if attractive opportunities present themselves down the road. Dividend growth at PPL is likely to cool in the next couple of years as the firm dumps considerable CapEx into upgrading its infrastructure. That's actually a good thing for dividend investors because it means that PPL's dividend prospects are going to be artificially held down in the near-term. With the firm's payout already at 4.87%, investors shouldn't have any trouble waiting a while for the next hike. To see these dividend plays in action, check out the at Dividend Stocks for the Week portfolio on Stockpickr. And if you haven't already done so, join Stockpickr today to create your own dividend portfolio. -- Written by Jonas Elmerraji in Baltimore.

By Mr. Keith Pannell (TRADOC)May 7, 2009
It's the voice.
One of the most recognizable voices on film. A voice that you expect to growl at you to "drop and give me twenty, maggot!".
Gunnery Sgt. R. Lee Ermey was at Fort Sill April 28 and 29 to shoot scenes for a new show for the History Channel called "Lock and Load."
While here, he met with the Marine Detachment and watched them fire the M-777 howitzer while filming scenes for the show.
Ermey is Gunnery Sgt. Hartman in "Full Metal Jacket," Sarge in the "Toy Story" movies, the escaped football coach in "Saving Silverman" and Dr. House's father on the television show "House." Those are just a few characters among more than 100 he has played.
His film career has spanned almost 30 years, beginning with him being hired as a technical adviser and a small part in the epic "Apocalypse Now." His breakout role was as Gunnery Sgt. Hartman, a Marine drill instructor, in "Full Metal Jacket."
Ermey said it was his 11 years in the military that prepared him for an unexpected life in front of the camera.
"It taught me discipline." Ermey said while waiting for filming in the field artillery museum to begin. "It conditioned me to stand in front of a large group of people and speak. It also taught me to be prepared. I find that the people who are camera-shy are people who are not prepared. The military basically conditioned me to step in front of the camera and do what I do."
Ermey said he studies very hard to prepare for a role and knows the lines for his entire role before the first day of shooting, not just that day's lines. He said he also knows most of the other dialogue as well and a movie may take three of four months to shoot. He says learning dialogue is not easy for him to learn, but through the discipline and learning techniques he was taught in the military, he presses forward.
"Once it's in there, it's locked in and I can recall it as soon as the director yells, 'Action!'"
He proved his retention abilities by reciting the opening scene dialogue of Gunny Hartman. A scene he learned in 1986.
Since 1979, Ermey has more than 150 film and television credits listed, according to IMDB.com.
Gunny Hartman
Ermey's breakout role, of course, was Gunnery Sgt. Hartman in "Full Metal Jacket," a role he rewrote for director Stanley Kubrick.
Hartman was originally written, Ermy said, by a writer who had been dishonorably discharged from the Marines. The role was written so that Hartman disciplined the Marine recruits for his own pleasure. Ermey had a problem with that.
"I tore that part of the script up," he said. "Of course, nobody smiles and nobody laughs however, drill instructors found out a long time ago that if you inject humor into everything you do, the privates will not only listen to you, they will retain what you say."
He said acting is not very different from being in the military. You have a job to do and you do your job, it's all about discipline.
"The most humiliating thing for me would be for the director to say, 'Action,' and I'm standing there like a [expletive] idiot and not know my words, which is my job, and there's people standing there depending on me to get it right. Acting and the military are not very different at all."
Ermey went on to say that what he does as an actor is "a piece of cake" and he's not comparing what he does with the work servicemembers do on a daily basis.
"Work is something you do with a shovel and a wheel barrel. What I do is white-collar stuff. It's easy," he said.
Back then and now
Ermey was in the Corps for 11 years before being medically retired as a staff sergeant. In 2002, the Comandant of the Marine Corps, James Jones gave Ermey an honorary promotion to gunnery sergeant.
Ermey spent two years as a Marine drill instructor during the Vietnam war. He's aware of the recent rules that have changed the way drill instructors and drill sergeants can interact and train trainees.
"I think the bureaucrats handing down orders to drill sergeants that they can't even raise their voices at a recruit is detrimental to the military," he said. "I have problems with some of the changes I've seen in the military, but it still seems those men and women are rising to the occasion. If they're undertrained, then we've failed them."
Still in his blood
Ermey will always be a Marine. He said he gives the Corps more than 100 days a year. He has made trips to Iraq, Afghanistan and various bases in the states. He said he handed out more than 10,000 Christmas presents to servicemembers in Iraq during the last holiday season.
"I spend more time with military members than I do my own family," Ermy said. "And, my wife of 35 years understands because, that's what I do."
He said the Marines are his brothers, but he's just as happy to visit with Soldiers, sailors and airmen.
"I've learned to play well with all," Ermey said. "They're still young American men and women who have their hearts in the right place and they've stepped up to the plate and they've given themselves to the military to take care of America's business. Some people don't respect that, but those people are [expletive]-heads that I have no use for anyway."
Ermey said he rewrites mostof the parts he plays simply because the original writers have no military experience.
He felt the producers of the television show "House" lied to him so he refused to play the character of House's father again until the episode featuring the father's death. Then he charged them $10,000 to lie in a casket.
He was hired as a technical advisor for the Gunny Hartman role and then did it so well, he replaced the original actor before filming began.
Ermey said his favorite role was as a detective in a small-budget movie called "Love is a Gun." But, he said Gunny Hartman comes in a close second because it garnered him a Golden Globe Award nomination.
Ermey has done voices for the "Toy Story" movies, "The Simpsons," "SpongeBob SquarePants," "Family Guy" and numerous other films and television episodes. He said the toughest thing about voice-over work is driving into Los Angeles.
"Lock and Load" premiers on the History Channel in July. Producers don't know when the episode featuring Fort Sill will air.

WASHINGTON -- High-tech companies could bring in almost 600,000 additional skilled foreign workers over the next three years and also hire thousands more foreign students from U.S. graduate programs under a bill that sped through Congress on Tuesday.
The Senate passed the bill on a 96-1 vote, and the House followed with voice vote passage several hours later, abandoning a version of its own that met serious opposition from the technology industry.
The quick congressional action after nine months of jockeying fulfills an election-year promise by both Democratic and Republican leaders to a high-tech sector that is increasingly flexing its political muscle through lobbying and campaign donations to both parties. President Clinton has said he will sign it.
''We should pass the bill just as it is, so we don't have to conference it,'' said Rep. Zoe Lofgren, D-Calif., ''It's the best bill that's been considered yet.''
Lofgren had cosponsored a similar bill with Rep. David Dreier, R-Calif., that had stalled in the House in favor of a version that had more protections for American high-tech workers.
With U.S. unemployment rates holding steady near a 30-year low, companies in California's Silicon Valley and along other booming high-tech corridors say they need the additional workers with six-year H-1B visas to fuel their continuing rapid growth.
''The short-term problem is how to fill the key positions immediately so that we don't lose opportunities to foreign competitors or so that we don't force American businesses to move offshore to where skilled workers might live,'' said Sen. Spencer Abraham, R-Mich.
A bill by Rep. Lamar Smith, R-Texas, that was approved by the House Judiciary Committee would have required companies using visas to increase the median pay of their U.S. workers and establish job projections for them. The industry opposed Smith's bill.
Dreier, who chairs the House Rules Committee, called the Senate version ''dynamite'' and had said earlier that House leaders would find a way to get it passed.
Industry advocates -- including Microsoft and Sun Microsystems, the U.S. Chamber of Commerce and the National Association of Manufacturers -- praised the Senate vote and called for the House to follow suit.
''If we want the United States to maintain its technological advantage, employers must be allowed to hire the professionals they need,'' said Paula Collins, director of government relations for Texas Instruments.
Technology businesses have more than doubled their political contributions during the past two years, according to the independent Center for Responsive Politics.

My blog won't accept a large post I keep trying to paste into it. Three and half MS Word pages it is.
So I tried just pasting one page in - it wouldn't accept that, either.
'Internal Server Error' it tells me.
I tried writing a short post of a few lines and it accepted it. No problem.
I upgraded to the latest version there and then.
Anyone got any clues what I could do about this... ?

Learning to play the guitar can be hard on your hands and fingers. You will probably have to endure a little pain while you build up calluses. Learn specific finger practice exercises and do them daily to build up the muscles in your hands. Otherwise, your hands may cramp up while you practice. Never underestimate the importance of taking the time to listen closely to what you are playing. A good ear will take you very far. To help develop your ears, pick out easy songs and try to play them without any sheet music or other aids. You will start to distinguish between melodies and chords in time. To avoid getting bored, try to have some variety in your guitar playing routine. Without variety, practicing the guitar will become boring and will lead to you quitting. Try playing songs that you enjoy and sing along. Play with friends or play in a different location to change things up.
After reading the above article you can probably see that most people can learn to play the guitar. It just takes a little bit of time and patience, but it can be done. If this is something you'd like to do all that's left is to put these tips into practice.
It is not easy to learn to play the guitar. Therefore, it is very important to stay motivated. One way to stay motivated is by setting short-term goals which won't to take that long to achieve. Finding a guitar buddy with whom to practice is also a good motivational tool. Staying motivated is key to not giving up.
Now that you have read the article above, you can see that playing the guitar isn't hard at all. It is actually rather easy when you have some knowledge on the subject. Be patient and be sure to use the tips above in order to become an excellent guitar player.
No matter what your previous knowledge or skill level, you can learn how to play the guitar. Use the ideas you just read to help get you started. The more you invest of your time and mental power, the better you will become. In no time, you can learn to play the guitar. Take the time to listen to music. You may have heard a song a million times but once you learn to play guitar, you can many things in a song that you didn't pick up on before. So take the time to listen to familiar songs and you will gain a new appreciation for them. To get the most for your money when you are just starting out with the guitar, buy an expensive one — less than $100. The reason for this is that you do not know whether you will stick with the instrument or not. Once you decide that you love it, upgrade to a better one.
As you begin to learn the basics of playing guitar, keep yourself surrounded by music, and great guitarists. The more you learn, the easier it will be to pick up techniques and ideas you hear in music you listen to. Watch other people play, and you will be surprised at what you can learn from others.

CNN cited the American Immigration Council's recent report ...
A Conversation with Jessica Dickman
July, 2011
Congratulations to Jessica Dickman, our Exchange Visitor of the Month. We recently caught up with Jessica to learn more about her J-1 visa experience.
How's your training going so far?
So far it's been really good. Such a unique and wonderful experience! Just being in the mining industry in general is interesting. Knowing how the company gives toward the economy and also to the community is great! They're very family oriented and support charities. They take the time to do extra stuff on top of the day to day work.
Tell me about yourself?
From Saskatchewan Canada born and raised. Parents are in NM and got this internship through them. One of my greatest passions is to serve and help people. I went to Bible school in Florida. Through different circumstances I left the school and studied to become a teacher and then changed over to studying to be an accountant. Outside education I love getting involved and helping people and being in the warm weather so NM is awesome for that. The culture here is very laid back and relaxed and everyone here is very nice. Everything gets done at very different pace. I'm trying to incorporate more of that relaxation into my life! This has been just such an enjoyable summer.
What's your favorite thing to do outside of training?
I love going to museums and seeing live music bands. I did go bowling and skeet shooting and it was the first time I ever held a gun. The next day my arms were extremely sore! I went to the caverns in NM which is something that everybody has to see.
How would you describe NM?
NM is the furthest state from my country. The culture is very laid back. Where I am (Carlsbad) there's only about 30,000 people and it's great for young families. There are palm trees here and it's like a little oasis in the desert. Everyone seems to drive a truck around here!! This community is really based around the mines and Intrepid realizes it and takes care of them. The food is incredible you should like spicy foods or at least be able to try them. You don't need to know Spanish to live here. People are really friendly and welcoming.
Any surprises about life in the US?
The food was a surprise and the biggest shock would be just the culture and how far apart things here are. I'm surprised that the people here are as laid back as they are!
Any favorite foods in NM?
Every Saturday morning we go to a place called Junior Burritos which is a little white truck and I order a breakfast burrito and it's unbelievably spicy! The burritos are fabulous! I've never encountered a place like this.
Favorite thing about the training?
Through school I didn't have a lot of experience with computers. So one of the greatest assets of doing this internship is learning the different programs like Microsoft Excel. I just finished a variance presentation that holds all of the information/data/head count/labor/budget for all three mines. My task was to go into the presentation and organize that data and that let me experience now ways of using computer programs that are valuable pieces of information that I can take with me to my next job.
Any advice?
One of the best things that I could tell someone is that they need to always be open to suggestions or criticism. Go into it with the expectation that you will grow and change and be challenged. There's nothing wrong with that. You need to be challenged in order to grow as a person. The point of the internship is to expand who you are and your character and to expand your knowledge. You need to realize that the company doesn't need you but they want to help you and want to give you the knowledge and make you better in whatever profession you might be in.

- An ISBN is the 10 or 13 digit number, usually printed on the back of a book with a bar code, that serves as a unique identifier for the book.
- Searching by ISBN is the best way to search because it will get you the exact title and edition that you need.
- Many professors include the ISBN on their syllabi or in their course management system.
If you don't have the ISBN, try a title or author search.
Title search
- Enter all words in the title you are looking for. The search engine will try to find books that have all the words you entered in the title. Leave out words such as "a," "an," or "the."
- When including edition, use numeric values. For example, "1st edition" instead of "first edition."
Author search
- Enter all or part of the author name you are looking for.
- You do not need to enter a first name, but if there are a lot of books by authors with the same last name, it may help to narrow the results.
- You can enter the name in any order such as "John Smith" or "Smith John." Avoid using a comma since it has a special meaning in the search.
Keyword search
- You can search by keyword but this approach is not recommended as it will likely return a large set of results.
- If you want to search by keyword, try a combination of author and keyword. For example, "Warren Accounting" where "Warren" is the author and "Accounting" is the keyword.
To refine your results, use the filtering/sorting options
- Filter options include product type and discipline area. Sort options include alphabetical sort (ascending or descending) and copyright year (ascending or descending).

COLLEGE STATION -- Christi Hahn, who recently complete a stellar four-year volleyball career at Texas A&M, has been recognized as an All-American Strength and Conditioning Athlete of the Year, the National Strength and Conditioning Association (NSCA) announced.
This marks the third consecutive year Hahn has received the award, which recognizes student-athletes' dedication to strength training and conditioning to improve overall athletic performance. The NSCA All-American Athlete of the Year Award was presented to 239 collegiate athletes from 165 schools.
"Christi has been the total package for our team," A&M strength and conditioning coach Raychelle Ellsworth said. "She excels on the court, in the weight room and in the classroom. After battling a knee injury through most of her junior campaign, Christi rebounded and had an outstanding off-season. Being the only senior on the team, she set a good example of what a true student-athlete should be."
Hahn, a middle blocker from Leander, Texas, started every match and played in every game for the Aggies (12-16, 5-15 Big 12) in 2006. She led the team and ranked second in the Big 12 with a .373 hitting percentage, the third highest hitting percentage in A&M season records.
A four-year letterwinner and three-year starter for the Aggies, Hahn posted double figures in kills in 20 matches her final season, including three 20-plus kill performances. She also led the Aggies with 4.13 points per game and ranked second on the team with 3.35 kills per game for the full season.
Hahn, a two-time academic All-American with a 4.0 grade-point average, completed her illustrious playing career with a .333 hitting percentage, ranking second in the A&M career records.

"If there is no blue, there is no green," Dr. Sylvia Earle has said. And she couldn't be more right.
The world's oceans are responsible for providing our fresh water, for regulating global temperatures, for providing food and housing the majority of the species on Earth. And it is also taking the brunt of human negligence and greed. From overfishing to plastic pollution to acidification from the carbon dioxide we're releasing in the air, our oceans are under threat and need us to pay attention.
On this page, dive into news about both problems and solutions for one of our most valuable resources.

Which sex is the worst about washing up? Why is it so important? We've got the dirty truth on how and when to wash your hands.
The Hidden Chemicals in Your Home
Some 25 million American households use well-water systems that contain too much arsenic, especially in parts of New England, the Southwest, and the West, where this chemical occurs naturally in rocks. Unfortunately, consuming even small amounts speeds the spread of cancerous tumors, according to a recent study. "Over your lifetime, arsenic increases your risk of diabetes, heart disease, and cancer," Hamilton says.
Bottom line: If you're a well user, have your water tested for arsenic by your state environmental agency (to find yours, go to epa.gov). On a municipal system? Request an annual water report. If your water contains more than 10 parts per billion of this chemical, buy a filter for your kitchen tap (look for a brand with the NSF seal; these products are certified to remove arsenic). Or use only bottled water for drinking and cooking.
Coal-burning manufacturing plants emit this chemical into the air; it then pollutes the water and wildlife that live there. So, if you eat a lot of fish (three or more servings a week), you may have mercury overload. In fact, one in five women of childbearing age has enough mercury in her blood to cause developmental problems in her baby, or miscarriage, according to a recent study. Mercury may also cause fatigue, headaches, and trouble concentrating.
Bottom line: Limit fish intake to about two six-ounce servings a week. Large fish absorb the most mercury, so avoid shark, swordfish, king mackerel, and tilefish, and have white albacore tuna no more than once a week. Your best bets: shrimp, salmon, and catfish. If you have symptoms, ask your doctor to check your mercury level; side effects usually improve once levels are lowered.

Watch stocks you care about
The single, easiest way to keep track of all the stocks that matter...
Your own personalized stock watchlist!
It's a 100% FREE Motley Fool service...
It's not often that you see a Food and Drug Administration rejection result in the drug developer's stock going up by a double-digit percentage. But that's just what happened last March when the FDA initially rejected Amylin Pharmaceuticals' (Nasdaq: AMLN ) Bydureon.
Going into the decision, investors figured there was a decent chance that the FDA would require additional clinical trials, which could have delayed the launch by Amylin and marketing partner Eli Lilly (NYSE: LLY ) by a year or more. Investors sighed in relief when all the FDA wanted was the Risk Evaluation and Mitigation Strategy (REMS) tweaked a little and clarification about manufacturing of Bydureon.
Bydureon is a once-weekly version of the duo's twice-daily diabetes drug Byetta. The jump from 14 needle sticks to just one was made possible by Alkermes' (Nasdaq: ALKS ) extended-release technology, which will get royalties if it's approved.
Amylin needs Bydureon to do more than just replace Byetta to be successful. It'll need to take considerable market share from a competing GLP-1 drug, Novo Nordisk's (NYSE: NVO ) Victoza, which shouldn't be too hard since Victoza is injected once a day. But Bydureon really needs to capture some patients that are currently taking oral medications such as Merck's (NYSE: MRK ) Januvia and Takeda's Actos. Byetta had a hard time accomplishing that, but the decrease in needle jabs could be enough to get Bydureon to blockbuster status.
An approval -- perhaps Friday, but maybe earlier or later -- is highly expected. Don't anticipate a repeat performance of the favorable stock price reaction if the FDA doesn't pass Bydureon on its second attempt. While I'll plant my flag in the camp expecting an approval, I'd caution investors not to go all-in here. It's not unprecedented for minor issues to trip up companies multiple times. Worse yet, we've seen the FDA to come up with new issues even after having another six months to review the drug.

Q: My wife worked for a number of years but became a full-time homemaker after our children were born. We noticed in her most recent Social Security Statement that she is only three work credits shy of qualifying for Social Security retirement benefits. Can we voluntarily contribute the $970 per quarter in earnings that are required for Social Security so that she will have retirement benefits coverage?
A: No. People cannot get additional Social Security credits by voluntarily contributing money to Social Security. They can earn credits only by working in a job or business covered under Social Security. However, even if your wife does not have her own Social Security coverage she will probably be eligible to receive Social Security benefits based on your work record. For more information, visit the Social Security Web site at www.socialsecurity.gov . Or call Social Security's toll-free number at (800) 772-1213 [TTY (800) 325-0778] and ask for the publication "Retirement Benefits."
Q: What is the absolute earliest age that a person can retire under Social Security?
A: An eligible worker may start receiving Social Security retirement benefits as early as age 62. However, if you start your benefits early, they are permanently reduced a fraction of a percent for each month before your full retirement age. For example, if your full retirement age is 66 and you sign up for Social Security when you're age 62, you will receive 75 percent of your full retirement benefit. For more information about the relationship between age and benefit payment amounts, you can visit the Social Security Web site at www.socialsecurity.gov . Or you can call Social Security's toll-free number at (800) 772-1213 [TTY (800) 325-0778] and ask for the publication "Retirement Benefits."

Hi there,
I need some advice about where to find the right Pop-Up I need - I am finding the various Pop-Up plugin websites rather impenetrable so thought I would ask on the forum here.
I need something which:
1) is Multi-Site compatible
2) allows for HTML editing of the actual Pop-Up
3) shows Pop-Up only after x number of visits
4) can connect with a mailing list so Pop-Up doesn't show to users already subscribed
If anyone has any experience with this it would be great to hear any recommendations. point number 1 is proving incredibly difficult to determine.
All the best,

Awesome muffins. I couldnt tell that there was whole wheat flour in these muffins. Love the sunflower seeds in them. I buy raw sunflower seeds and roasted them in the oven 300 degress for 20 minutes. I also soak the raisins in boiling water for a few minutes. At 375 oven mine baked in 18 minutes and I got 12 nice sized muffins. Thanks for sharing this recipe. Made for the Lite and Low challenge in the photo fourm.
great recipe I substituted no fat peach yougurt for the applesauce .. good result

Ok, so I have a few mysql databases set up through godaddy, but I haven't touched them in awhile and I forget my password. I have tried changing the password for each individual database, but it still doesn't let me log in then through the "manage via phpmyadmin" button. It keeps saying wrong password. I am 100% sure my password it right since I have tried changing it multiple times.
I don't understand how it is set up. I have 3 databases; is there a separate password for each database? I can't log into any of them, even after changing the password on one of all of them.

Peter, > I have to ask: What did Napoleon say??? approximately "N'attribuez pas a la malice ce qui peut etre explique par l'incompetence." -- don't believe wisdom is involved when a simpler explanation may be incompetence or ignorance. About modules and package locks: Dan Stanger's GDI has a file to preload which reads as follows: (MAKE-PACKAGE "GDI"). That's all - 1MB for that. Then you must dump an image with an old lisp, then you must create a lisp.exe with the module, then you can make use of it. The extra image (of little added value) until now cannot be avoided. This waters the recommendation in my article on modules, where I explain that it's much better (on disk space and flexibility) to have a single original image, as module initialization time is negligible. With such an old image, you can later create any lisp.exe with as many modules as you want and never have CLISP complain "this image was not generated with this version of CLISP". With the current state, this is broken, - for extensions to the FFI because of locking (dynload), - for new packages because they must be created first (GDI, LDAP) > A "works for me" patch is fine. Anyway, it will help anyone who > writes or wants to write modules by hand. I hope to get around to > hand-written modules real soon now (TM) :-) It would indeed help Dan. His GDI would not need an extra image anymore before lisp.run can start. I'll submit a patch to a) create package if needed b) unlock package for every LISPFUN found in the module. > In an attempt to recreate the problem, so I could experiment with > using mark_pack_unlocked. But it all compiles fine, with no > complaints about locked packages!!!! And with > #'foreign-address-function, etc in "FFI". > What the fuck is going on? I have an explanation. It all depends on the order in which you compiled the successive CLISP's with and without modules, created the images etc. Here's how: Start with a virgin lisp.run, without -M: Package FFI is there, unlocked. Recompile to use module dynload. Create image using this lisp: lisp-with-dynload.run -x (load "init.fas") -> module is initialized first, FFI is not locked. -> image is created, with all packages locked. But dynload is already there, and it's in package FFI. So with the FFI package, you happen to be safe. Not so for new packages, e.g. GDI, because they were not created. Now the other scenario: user has lisp.exe and old lispinit.mem Recreate lisp.exe with dynload.d lisp-with-dynload.exe -M lispinit.mem => attempt to add to locked FFI package error lisp-with-dynload.exe without -M : no error lisp-with-dynload.exe -x (load "init.fas"): can create new image with DYNLOAD in it. lisp-with-dynload.exe -M newimage: no error, already initialized So depending on the path taken by the user, s/he might see errors or not... I hate this inconsistent (to the user) behaviour. Regards, Jorg Hohle.
Hi, Peter asked: > > What the fuck is going on? [long hypothesis of mine deleted] Maybe there's a simpler explanation: I just created a new lisp.exe (no modules) and new lispimag.mem: ...\clisp-2.28\src>lisp.exe -B . -Efile UTF-8 -norc -m 750KW -x "(load \"init.fas\") (sys::%saveinitmem) (exit)" ...\clisp-2.28\src>lisp.exe -M lispimag.mem [...] [1]> (package-lock "FFI") NIL [2]> (package-lock "SYS") NIL ? Some older images of mine have the locks in them?!?! I see, it should have been: -x "(load \"init.fas\") (saveinitmem) (exit)" How did you dump your images? Regards, Jorg Hohle. Patch will be sent to SF. Now I can > oldlisp.exe -M oldlispinit.mem -i gdi.fas and don't need that stupid interim image anymore.

I didn't. The build process did it for me. I am building with the patches to 'configure' and 'makemake.in' which I sent to the list, and which allow building the new ffi 'normally'. There does not appear to be any problem with package locking: certainly, I redefined ffi to "FFI" in dynload.d and ffimext.d, and I do not get errors. Regards, Peter

The State of ... Ding Dong! The CLEO (certification) is dead. Which old CLEO? The wicked CLEO. Ding Dong! The wicked CLEO (certification) is dead. (with apologies to The Wizard of OZ)
Of course, the big news is the requirement on Form 1 (and 4) for a CLEO signature certifying that the official has no information indicating that possession of the firearm by the maker (transferee) would be in violation of State or local law or that the maker (transferee) will use the firearm for other than lawful purposes has been eliminated in the final rule making known as ATF 41P. Starting some time in July of 2016, the new Forms 1 and 4 will require only CLEO notification of intent to submit the form. Well never know how close we were to a different CLEO certification of Is this the party to whom I am speaking? after throwing Trusts and Corps under the bus, but alls well that ends well. Right? Now well begin a new conflict of whos a responsible person in a Trust or Corp, but thats a story for another time.
A reminder that 2 charts have been added comparing weapons within a category. The first is comparing UZI Registered Receivers to Registered Bolts. The second is comparing regular M60s to M60E4 (MK43 Mod 0) to M60s originally built by Saco Maremont.
General Ranting - Obamas performance when announcing his Executive Actions initiative on gun control was exemplary. He laughed, he cried, well see it again. When he got done mentioning himself about a million times, he dragged out the old lies about universal background checks and the imaginary gun show loophole. And as usual, nothing he said would make any difference in criminals acquiring weapons or even mass shooting tragedies. The real danger is that he can through Executive Action modify existing ATF rules and procedures. People selling their own guns without an FFL seem to be in the target. Maybe hell set a limit of 20 guns before youre an illegal dealer. Then next year its changed to 10, then 5, then 1. Its not so much a slippery slope but a slip-n-slide because you know where your going to end up. You would think a NRA A rated majority in Congress would work to defund his initiatives. Youd be wrong.
The Republican establishment is literally apoplectic that The Donald is still hanging in there. These are the same guys that gave us McCain and Romney as candidates and when we finally jammed in a Republican Congress, we got Boehner, now Ryan, and McConnell to run it. Are they challenging Obamas fundamental
More of the STILL Continuing JPFO Rant - Theres been a few negative comments about this, but if you had a father or grandfather that fought in the Pacific during WWII, you may be alive today due to the nuclear bombing of Japan that ended the war in the Pacific. At least 1 million US and up to 4 million Japanese lives were saved when Japan surrendered, negating the anticipated invasion of Japan. My dad was Army Air Force in India and Burma during the war and was being readied for the invasion. His life was likely spared due to the bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki. For JFPO to allow revisionists a voice to equate these events with the Nazi Holocaust is disgusting. This rant will stay until JFPO addresses the issue. Its been over 3 years and havent heard from them yet. If you dont like it, skip it or try out your delete key.
UPDATE On JPFO - Apparently JPFO has fallen apart after the death of Mr. Zellman and other unfortunate events befallen their leadership. They have merged with the Second Amendment Foundation (SAF) sometime in 4Q 2014. SAFs leader, Alan Gottlieb has previously stated his opposition to Class III guns, while barely tolerating semi-automatic weapons. Additionally, Gottlieb supported the Toomey/Manchen universal background check/gun registration bill. Maybe not the best of friends for automatic weapon advocates. I expressed my reservations about the Japanese genocide to Alan Korwin of gunlaws.com who has joined with SAF/JPFO to promote their alliance and received a big fat no response. I even bought one of his books; how ungrateful!
JPFO used to be a no-nonsense civil rights organization with special emphasis on the rights of self defense. Unique for a Jewish organization. Then Mr. Zellman passed away and they may have lost their compass. Last October (2011!), one of their correspondents penned an article about government sponsored genocides that included this paragraph:
I've seen many other programs about the Nazi Holocaust -- or Shoah (the "Catastrophe") as it's also been called -- and so have you. Along with the Turkish slaughter of the Armenians, the Chinese "Massacre of the Landlords", Stalin's deadly crimes, (I would also include what happened at Hiroshima and Nagasaki), and the insanity of the Cambodian Killing Fields, the Nazi Holocaust, the principal horror of the 20th century, was the crowning achievement of untrammeled statism in an age which, not by any means coincidentally, saw the rise of the gigantic super-government.
Include what happened at Hiroshima and Nagasaki among the genocides of the 20th Century? We know what happened at Hiroshima and Nagasaki; Nuclear bombs were dropped on Japanese cites causing widespread destruction and massive casualties causing the previously reticent Japanese to surrender. Subsequently, the planned invasion of Japan was canceled, saving millions of Japanese and Allied lives. The casualties numbered in the hundreds of thousands. JPFO was way out-of-line to equate those acts of war with the 100s of millions liquidated by their own governments. You be the judge as I still havent seen any retraction from JPFO.

Style: 27072974
Distressed denim jacket with attached knit sleeves and hood. Button front closure and two front slit pockets. All over roughed look. A cool piece to add a tomboy edge to any look.
Free People
Knit Hooded Denim Jacket styled by the FP Me community
Classic and comfortable
I like the look of a denim jacket but most of them feel too stiff for me. This one, because of the knit sleeves, is comfy enough to wear all day. I bought the lighter color shown here. The distressed denim looks great, but the knit fabric doesn't look as high-quality as I might like. I wasn't crazy about the hood so i was glad to find it detachable. It buttons on under the collar. I will save it to use for bad weather but will otherwise wear the jacket sans hood. The sleeves are a bit too long for me (5'1") but roll up easily. This works great to dress down a floral dress or skirt.
Cute little jacket
Height: 5'7" (171 cm) -- Measurements: 32-22-32 (81-55-81). Inverted triangle body shape. Purchased size S. I normally don't like the mixed-denim-and-fabric look, but this one surprised me. It fits very well and looks great over a mini dress or a shirt and boyfriend jeans.
Go to jacket
It's been an unusually warm winter so I have been able to wear this one a lot. I got it in both med and large in the light denim/grey color. They both fit and button up with no problem but I couldn't decide which one to keep. The large works better when I'm wearing a sweater underneath. The med is goo for a fitted look with a tank or short sleeve. I think I may have to keep both since it is such a cute jacket. My only complaint is that the sleeves on the jacket-by the wrists, it frays easily. Hope it doesn't unravel while I wear it.
Comfortable and stylish
The denim on this jacket is light and soft, which makes it very easy to wear and feels nice to the touch. I'm usually a small (34-28-34), sometimes xs in FP, and the small in this fits kinda big and boxy. I still really like my ivory one and will be wearing it all the time.
Cozy and stylish!
This jacket rocks! I was so torn between the denim and ivory, but wound up purchasing the ivory because I didn't have anything like it in my wardrobe. It is the COZIEST jacket, and I love it during all seasons (so long as it isn't too cold out!). It is an adorable accessory for layering but also makes a great stand-alone jacket. I can't stress how comfortable it is - it feels like I am wearing an old sweatshirt but looks much more fashionable. I wish I could purchase this in every color!
Great Jacket
I think that this is a very versatile jacket, and looks way better in person than in the photos. There are lots of little details to it that make it look unique and much better than the cheaper alternatives. It is machine washable and dry-able, which I find very convenient. Also, the hood is detachable, and while I have no desire to remove it I think it's a nice detail :)
Must Have
I saw this in-store but they didn't have anything bigger than an XS. I knew as soon as I held it up that I would order it online in my size. All the reviews saying that the color is dull... I didn't find that to be true. It's a natural, washed blue. The fit is amazing. I'm usually a M in FP and the jacket is surprisingly a lot roomier than I thought (I'm a 36C so nothing buttons over). A M is perfect and I can wear it opened or closed, as is intended. Definitely recommend anyone who hasn't purchased this yet to do so!
2 of this!
I love this jacket, the unique distressed look sets it different from the usual denim/cotton mix. Own it in 2 colors - pumice black and ivory - and love them both. however, i have to admit that it's on the pricier side. but i guess if i can wear them every day, it's probably worth it!
yasss to this jacket
I've had this jacket for three hours and I already know I'm going to wear it all the time, haha. For reference, I'm 5'9, about 135 lb, a 34D and usually between a small and medium in FP. I usually go bigger for jackets since I'm tall and my arms are long, so I got a medium and it's perfect! I got it in black (which looks even better in person) and was a little concerned about the darkness and the style looking too harsh, but this was totally unfounded. The cropping (which is just enough) and piping definitely keep this jacket looking feminine. Of course, it remains to be seen how well it will hold up over time, but this jacket looks and feels really well-made, so I'm not too worried. And it's genuinely comfortable- even the denim body is so soft. If you're on the fence, I would definitely say go for it! My only concern now is resisting grabbing one of the other colors...

[In the following essay, Gamerman reviews the themes of Szymborska's poetry.]
In "Evaluation of an Unwritten Poem," Wislawa Szymborska, the Polish poet who won the Nobel Prize for Literature yesterday, writes of a poet who contemplates the cosmos—and comes up short:
"In her depiction of the sky, one detects a certain helplessness,
the authoress is lost in a terrifying expanse,
she is startled by the planets' lifelessness,
