Journey To Space | 3D
A celebration of space exploration, Journey to Space is a tribute to international cooperation in space research and a vision toward our near-term future beyond Earth's orbit – a manned mission to Mars within a generation. Beautifully and inspiringly chronicling our history in space – including the shuttle program, MIR, the International Space Station and the Hubble telescope – Journey to Space recognizes these milestones in the context of our future in the cosmos, what we've learned, and how to apply this knowledge to deep space missions. The film takes audiences on a behind-the-scenes tour of the international effort to send astronauts to Mars within the next 20 years, culminating in a virtual voyage to the Red Planet. Dazzling and meticulous computer imagery depicts the new machines that will soon enter into our lexicon – Orion, Olympus, SLS rockets – spacecraft, habitats, landers, and vehicles necessary to achieve interplanetary travel, touchdown and colonization.
Journey to Space taps into the same human fervor and fascination that makes science fiction so popular, our unquenchable drive to explore and discover what lies beyond. This film, though, is not fiction. Mars is the next step in what will be an unending human odyssey to explore the cosmos. Journey to Space is about the next chapter, a vision certain to inspire today's young explorers and dreamers. It is time to take the next great leap into space. It is time for our species, in the words of Carl Sagan, to "set sail across the cosmic ocean." Next stop… Mars!

I will readily admit to being a whiteboard fanatic (the 'real one'), and so this is perfect. It is NO frills, and allows me to do on my iPad what I do in my office all the dang time. I have tried a LOT of the elaborate variety and they are too fancy, too cluttered... just 'too'. This is as simple as the whiteboard in your office... which is perfect.
Really cool. Nice way to write on photos

Customer Reviews
Nice but some problems
Have had the app a while and have liked it. However since a recent update have not been able to write anything without getting dotted instead of solid lines. It is very annoying. If that problem were fixed I would give it a higher rating but can't at this time.
Love it. May I suggest?
Make the canvas larger and have the ability to zoom in and out to be able to create a larger more usable white board. Too difficult to draw in more finite details with static size canvas.
Extremely limited options. Inverts pictures when the picture is not inverted. Pretty much no tools to use. In am glad it is only 1.99. Waste of money get one the free ones they actually have more options.

Suppose that you need to get a heavy couch into the bed of a pickup truck. (Part A figure) You know the bed of the truck is at a height of
1.00 and you need a ramp that makes an angle of 40 with the ground if you are to be able to push the couch.
Use the sine function to determine how long of a board you need to use to make a ramp that just reaches the 1.00- high truck bed at a 40 angle to the ground.

For those who follow national politics, the premier race in Montana in 2012 will be Republican Denny Rehberg's bid to unseat Democratic senator Jon Tester; in a presidential year, Rehberg has, at the very least, a decent shot of winning the seat. But it sounds like Montana's other big statewide race, for governor, is attracting a crowd on both sides of the aisle:
Democratic Sen. Larry Jent of Bozeman says he will be running for governor in 2012 . . . Jent is an attorney who served in the state House from 2001 to 2006 and the state Senate since then. The former Army officer said he wants to continue the sort of fiscal policies seen under Gov. Brian Schweitzer.
Another Democratic state senator, Dave Wanzenried of Missoula, also is running while Attorney General Steve Bullock says he may run for governor.
The Republican side is even more crowded, with former congressman Rick Hill facing off against former state senators Ken Miller of Laurel and Corey Stapleton of Billings. Washington, D.C., security consultant Neil Livingstone and Chouteau County Commissioner Jim O'Hara.
Schweitzer currently enjoys high approval ratings, which will probably be helpful to the Democrat who seeks to follow him.

Was it "insensitive" before the last election to send confidential tax data including donors to conservative groups (illegally collected by the IRS) to Propublica, a liberal media group that is funded by George Soros and other left wing billionaires? If so, it is probably also insensitive to rob banks.

This is like the fox guarding the henhouse. The no budget President has lost

he won't throw his medals over the fence into North Korean territory so
they can use that like Jane Fonda's propaganda.
The secretary of Defense is beyond is Peter's principle and Murphy's law will grab him. Since we have the Obama Chiefs of Staffs of all military services, hopefully, they will be able to hold the line.

The IRS has proven that it is too big, too powerful, and too easily twisted to perform illegal and immoral acts as a partisan political goon squad. It is corrupt to the core, at least in the appointed leadership levels, and in many small pockets of easily manipulated bureaucrats. Yes, many IRS workers are simply doing their jobs and collecting what is due so we can run the government, but they mask the rot that exists.
Allowing this huge bureaucracy with unlimited power, unlimited resources, and the tyrannical ability to destroy any individual or business to continue to operate is inconsistent with limited or honest government.
Lots of people need to be fired, and JAILED! Then the tax code needs to be simplified so as to eliminate the IRS. Finally, Obamacare with 12,000 new IRS agents to be the :enforcers" must be halted immediately, and repealed entirely.

The whole government needs to take sensitivity training and figure out that they
are to be working for our citizens and not trying to subvert anything of good
report or praiseworthy. They have too many in this administration from Chicago
who have a street mentality and not of a historical perspective in that
President Lincoln came out of the Chicago convention to be a winner for our
country. He was the cement that held our country together.
Think about the IRS trying to manage our healthcare and privacy and be the beloved servants of our country is hard to imagine in 7 months. We are in for a real surprise. These guys violated the laws 2 years ago when they should have been ginning up the healthcare programs that they will be responsible for. We just need to drop back and punt and keep that part of the process away from corrupt people that are to be protecting our national resource, taxes.
They are about as trustworthy as the Benghazi people. When you think of the Department of the Treasury and the IRS, you think of a budget approved and in the system. For 5 years we have no budget.

I've been audited. These folks weren't even audited!! Their
application was essentially subject to review to see if they were eligible for
tax exempt status.
Was it based on the difficulty of determining if the majority of these particular groups' activities were to 1) promote social welfare, or 2) engage in political activity?
The particular section of law they are applying under requires that the groups are for "promoting social welfare," yet all Tea Party groups were clearly engaged in loud, blatant and very public political activities.
Simply sending a memo that says, "Hey folks, it looks like those 'tea party' groups are mostly political. Be sure to check social welfare activity is valid," seems perfectly acceptable to me.

Doesn't matter why they applied. If they were not eligible, then just turn them down.
However--when the IRS is asking for donor lists (which is illegal), what books were read, copies of webpages, whether they have any intention of running for office now or in the future, etc, then they have crossed the line into Orwellian territory.
And just how do you know that some of the groups applying were not educational?

The President releasing the IRS commissioner gave the same words as he has for
any other problem he has had all through his ministry of President of the United
States of America. All those who are involved is going to surface like cream,
some now and some who are dragging this administration down, in a later time.
The President is going through the Bill Clinton type of pressure. They just
need to keep clean and not have the appearance they can get away with
indiscriminate actions affecting millions of people. The IRS actions are
against the law and how they applied them arbitrary and capricious does not
allow the system to correct them. They don't have a tracking system as
FedEx and UPS have to know who violated the law. There are undefined
conservatives that are out there, not just ones with their names in it.
All people that read the DN could fall into that category. Anyone who has read John Birch Society or Constitution could be considered in that category. They could tap into your Amazon.com and find out what books you ordered and not even read to consider one as conservative.

When is this going to stop? This back-stabbing, mud slinging and immature behavior of organizations who think they have the right over anyone else. Our wonderful USA is so divided because of hate, malice and lack of Patriotism. The devil is certainly in control. What happened to being happy for someone's success? I never could have imagined our wonderful United States of America being entangled in such berating, mean and hateful behavior between citizens. Those in high positions in our government are supposed to be the example of what is true and good. But instead those select few that do care are being overpowered by those who do not. I for one, wish those in charge would "grow up" and start taking seriously their words and actions and begin by being Honest and True to our Red, White and Blue.

BEST BETS: "Jessica Jones," "Big Trouble/Escape from New York" & More October 2016 Highlights
Comic Books
Legal | Anime and manga fans in Japan are raising concerns that a proposed provision in the Trans-Pacific Partnership would threaten the existence of doujinshi, fan-made comics that are often parodies of commercial manga. Many established manga creators cut their teeth on doujinshi (and some return to it even after their series hit the big time), and the biggest comics expo in the world, Comiket, is devoted to doujinshi. The works are self-published and made in small batches, sold to fellow enthusiasts at large and small conventions, and Japanese publishers generally ignore them. Under current Japanese law, only the rights holder can bring a copyright complaint, but the TPP would allow complaints from third parties, including the creator of a rival doujinshi. "If creators can be prosecuted without complaints from rights holders, it could lead to some kind of snitching battle between fans," said Negima creator Ken Akamatsu, himself a former doujinshi-ka. "Places for people to share their work will also disappear." [The Japan News]
Digital comics | Japanese publisher Kodansha has launched a free Magazine Pocket manga app for iOS and Android devices, which in addition to titles already serialized in Weekly Shonen Magazine features two exclusive spinoffs: Fairy Tail Spinoff: Twin Dragons of Sabertooth, springing out of Fairy Tail, and Brass of Diamond! Seidō High School Wind Instrument Club, based on Ace of Diamond. The app boasts more than 30 titles, with some chapters offered for free and others requiring a fee. [Anime News Network]
Retailing | "In Hungary there is little or nil culture for comics," says Arpád Barabás, owner of the Budapest comic shop Trillian. "The main reason is that between 1946 and 1989 there was nothing except for the Boy Scout propaganda publications in this genre, all other things having been prohibited." Barabás, who goes by the nickname Grif, is working hard to fill that vacuum, mostly with imported comics, but because of the cost, very few have been translated into Hungarian. [The Budapest Times]
Creators | In an interview to be published in Japan next Friday, Naruto creator Masashi Kishimoto says he plans to spend some time with his wife and child, and take a long-delayed honeymoon, before starting his next series. And as he is about to turn 40, he hints that he may not be up for another weekly series. [Anime News Network]
Comic strips | The first color Sunday funnies appeared on Nov. 18, 1894, in Joseph Pulitzer's New York World. David Shedden observes the 120th anniversary of this innovation with a look back at some popular comic strips and footage of New York Mayor Fiorello LaGuardia reading the funnies over the radio during the newspaper strike of 1945.

Passings | Tony Auth, editorial cartoonist for The Philadelphia Inquirer from 1971 to 2012, died Sunday at age 72. Auth, who won both the Pulitzer and Herblock prizes during his lengthy career with the newspaper, began drawing as a child, when a lengthy illness confined him to bed for a year and a half. He graduated from UCLA in 1965 with a bachelor's degree in biological illustration, and worked as a medical illustrator for a time. He began his cartooning career doing a weekly cartoon for a local alternative newspaper and then started drawing a thrice-weekly cartoon for the UCLA Daily Bruin. He left the Inquirer in 2012 to pursue digital cartooning and became the Digital Artist in Residence for WHYY's News Works. In addition to his cartooning work, he illustrated 11 children's books. His editorial cartoons have been collected into two books, and Temple University has begun fund-raising for an archive of his work. Michael Cavna has a roundup of tributes from Auth's colleagues at Comic Riffs. [The Philadelphia Inquirer]
All Star (NBM): The latest graphic novel from Joe and Azat's Jesse Lonergan, All Star gets a lot of mileage out of its setting in both space and time. The space is an extremely small small town of Elizabeth, Vermont, a place with little to do and little chance of escape for the young, caged tiger types who are coming of age there. The time is 1998, and Lonergan returns again and again to the sports, politics and pop culture of the time for knowing gags, commentary on the events of the story or even just color.
Our protagonist is Carl Carter, the cocky, hot-shot all-star of the title, a fantastic baseball player whose skill could take him far from town once he graduates, and has made him one of his school and town's most popular residents, much to the chagrin of his long-suffering brother (who is also his teammate).
One night, after drinking way too much at a party, he and his best friend make a stupid decision, one that gets his friend expelled from school and sent on a completely different path than Carl, who suspects his baseball skills and the importance of the sport to his school got him off light.
He begins soul-searching from there, and realizes too late how screwed-up his world is, and actually has been for a while, but it's too late to do anything about. A tragedy — in the sense that it ends sadly rather than happily — All Star captures small-town adolescence perfectly (perhaps all too perfectly, depending on a reader's mood and propensity for elegiac nostalgia), and is actually a great deal of fun, despite the down ending and the heavy melodrama.
Conventions | San Diego City Council has given final approval to the planned $520 million expansion of the San Diego Convention Center, viewed as necessary to keeping Comic-Con International in the city past 2015. The project still faces a legal challenge to a financing scheme involving a hotel-room surtax, as well as state regulatory approval, leading the city attorney to caution that the targeted 2017 completion date is just "a goal." Whether Comic-Con organizers can be convinced to sign another three-year extension to their contract remains a big question. [NBC San Diego]
Conventions | Most of Heidi MacDonald's article about New York Comic Con is behind a paywall at Publishers Weekly, but she pulls out some stats at The Beat: Ticket sales are up 190 percent over this time last year. As the capacity of the Javits Center is somewhere south of 110,000 people, this means the ReedPOP folks won't sell any more tickets than last year, but they are selling out faster. Three-day and four-day passes are already gone, only Friday tickets remain, and ReedPOP vice president Lance Fensterman expects everything to be sold out by the time the show begins. [The Beat]
Here's a quick thought experiment: What would happen to you if you made your own Mickey Mouse comic and sold it online or at conventions? You would expect to feel the wrath of Disney pretty quickly, wouldn't you?
Yet doujinshi, fan-made comics, are a huge part of Japanese culture, and many of them involve characters from existing manga series. And Ken Akamatsu, creator of Negima and Love Hina—as well as his own doujinshi—wants it to stay that way, which is why he is speaking out against Japan joining the Trans-Pacific Partnership Agreement, a trade agreement would make copyright laws uniform among the nine signatories, including the U.S. If Japan signs on, Akamatsu says, the new regulations would have a chilling effect on the doujinshi market.
Japan's current copyright laws allow publishers to tolerate a certain amount of remixing of copyrighted characters, although there are limits: In 2007, for instance, the publisher Shogakukan took legal action against the creator of a Doraemon doujinshi that not only perfectly mimicked the look of the original manga (one of the most popular in all of Asia) but also sold over 13,000 copies.
Kodansha Comics unveiled their fall lineup today, and in addition to the already announced return of Sailor Moon, they will be bringing two more classics from the early days of licensed manga: Tokyo Mew Mew and Love Hina, both with new translations and a pocketbook-friendly omnibus format.
Both series were originally published by Tokyopop. Tokyo Mew Mew is a classic shoujo battle manga, featuring super-cute girls whose DNA has mysteriously mingled with that of various animals; they fight to save Planet Earth using ribbons and marshmallows and other sweet, girly things. Love Hina is a classic harem manga about a hapless slacker who gets kicked out of his parents' house and ends up living in a girls' dorm. Hilarious complications ensue! Readers who can't get enough of boys accidentally barging into the shower may also enjoy Kodansha's other series, Negima, by the same creator, Ken Akamatsu.
But wait! There's more! The fall list will also include followups to two other older series. Shugo Chara-Chan! is a four-panel comic strip based on Peach-Pit's 12-volume series Shugo Chara, which will end in September. And for the boys-love crowd, @Full Moon is the sequel to Until the Full Moon, which was originally licensed by Broccoli and is being brought back by Kodansha this summer. With its supernatural overtones (one character is half werewolf, half vampire), this seems tailor-made for the supernatural-romance crowd.
For those who can't get enough, the full press release is after the jump.
A blog called Welcome Datacomp has translated a discussion of manga piracy between manga creators Ken Akamatsu (Love Hina, Negima), Minako Uchida, and Kazumi Tojo that took place on the Japanese social media site Togetter about the prevalence of scanned and fan-translated manga on the internet. Akamatsu is experimenting with his own free manga site, but even so, he sounds pessimistic: "Am I too late? I get the feeling that [my project to release free manga PDFs] won't be enough at this point." He goes on to say
Hasn't illegally scanned manga, propagated so casually like this, fallen into the category of "property of the Internet"? You won't be able to eliminate it. The only thing we can do at this point is [launch our own free websites with the] "advertising model". (Because charging people would be difficult.)
The most recent illegal scans are very high quality, and the translations are exceedingly accurate. (^^;) If there's no respect for original authors on the net, then obviously the official versions will lose out.
The creators express dismay that people who would not shoplift from a physical store have no compunction about reading pirated manga; as Tojo says, "It seems like people will pay for things they can touch like vegetables, but they think it's a waste to pay for intangible data."
It seems like the creators are talking about both scans in Japanese, which are read locally, and fan-translated manga for other markets; they cite one example of a publisher being told by fans to change a name to the one selected by a scanlator. And there's an interesting side discussion on the decline of the cell phone, which was once a popular platform for yaoi and erotic manga. As people switch to smart phones, the options dwindle: Apple doesn't allow adult manga in the iTunes store, and Akamatsu says Kindle doesn't either (I'm not so sure about that), but the fans reassure him that Android allows it, making that the platform of choice for ero manga fans.
Manga creator Ken Akamatsu (Negima, Love Hina) has been pioneering an interesting business model: Putting out-of-print manga online, for free, as PDFs with no copy protection. The site, J-Comi, is supported by ads, and Akamatsu put his money where his mouth is by posting all 14 volumes of Love Hina on the site, which is still in beta.
Last week, Akamatsu announced that he is working with Google to develop a comics reader that will track readers' location and interests and deliver targeted ads. That's actually not such great news for readers—comics viewers seldom work as smoothly as a PDF, they won't allow the comics to be downloaded to an iPad or other device, and everyone hates ads—but I guess you have to pay the bills somehow.
What makes this site a big deal is the names attached: Akamatsu has persuaded two of the biggest manga publishers in Japan, Kodansha and Shueisha, to play along. When the second beta test period begins, on January 11, the offerings will include Belmonde Le VisiteuR, from Shueisha's Weekly Shonen Jump magazine, which is also the home of the blockbusters Naruto and Bleach, as well as Hōkago Wedding (Afterschool Wedding), a previously unpublished 50-page story, and Kōtsū Jiko Kanteinin Tamaki Rinichirō (Rinichirō Tamaki, Traffic Accident Investigator), an older series from Shueisha's Super Jump.
Akamatsu's plans also include finding a way to allow readers to post comments alongside the comments (this sounds vaguely like Graphic.ly), which would allow fans to do their own translations right on the site.
Ken Akamatsu, the creator of the manga Love Hina and Negima, is launching a new site that will post out-of-print manga, for free, as simple PDFs, with no DRM (copy protection). The difference between this and a scan site like, say Onemanga.com, is that the manga will be posted with the creators' permission and everyone will get a cut of the advertising revenues from the site. (Oh, and the site is in Japanese, but it's a model that could work in the U.S. as well.)
If this doesn't immediately seem like a good idea, take a look at the comment thread on our post on the shutdown of the pirate site HTMLcomics: Many of the people who were using it were reading out-of-print comics that weren't available anywhere else. While one portion of the comics audience lives for each Wednesday's new releases, there are plenty of people who are quite happy, even eager, to read older comics. On the other hand, people generally aren't willing to pay a lot for them, unless they are rare. Akamatsu's site will bring people over from the pirate sites and generate a trickle of income from works that otherwise wouldn't be bringing in one thin dime.
There is a placeholder here, but no site yet. The beta version will go live on November 26, and Akamatsu plans to start with a big splash by posting all 14 volumes of Love Hina. That should get him some eyeballs. Once they tally the clicks, the final version of the site will launch in January.
Ken Akamatsu, creator of Love Hina and Negima, discusses his schedule and a bit about his process in this short video made by Mark Bernabe of Masters of Manga. His schedule is rigorous, but his veteran status seems to have earned him a bit of leeway.

The Internet began as a way of sharing information - but also as a way to subvert the top-down design of earlier networks. Much of the early 1990s hype dwelt on the notion that the Internet could not be controlled by governments or corporate interests.
However maps of the Internet tell a different story - and help explain why Internet traffic has been so easy to spy on. Keeping the Internet free and open will require technology, law, and policy, working together. Can it be done?
Join ORG Edinburgh on Monday July 14th for a talk on the evolution of the internet from Wendy M. Grossman - an award-winning journalist who for more than 20 years has covered the border wars between cyberspace and real life.
The event is free to attend and will be followed by an informal Q&A discussion, so as always anyone is welcome to join.
Would've loved to be there, but I'm not in Edinburgh that week.

Rebecca Barnhardt, a current Bucklin School Board member is running for re-election in the April 2 election. Barnhardt is completing her first four-year term on the board.
"I think that Bucklin is great school district, and we have a lot of really exciting things in the works," she said. "Things that began in my first term, and I'd like to see through."
Just a few of the exciting things coming to Bucklin include a Pathways program, a feasibility study that was just completed, an and exchange program with a German school and much more.
"I think that really says a lot about our school," Barnhardt said, "that even with budget cuts across the board and less funding, we're still expanding and offering more to our students."
Barnhardt knows first hand the value of a Bucklin education. She herself attended the school, then came back as a Spanish teacher. She is now retired. Her three children have also attended the school, they have all graduated now.
"I feel like I was able to get a good solid education at Bucklin," Barnhardt said, "and I think I've been successful because of that education throughout my life. And my children are all doing well too."
Barnhardt went on to say that for a small school in a small town, a lot of big things are happening at Bucklin. And that's really exciting.

Seems that Wordbooker is adding extra "blank lines" to the HTML code for my pages at http://www.cnyradio.com.
On my homepage or other multi-post pages, the beginning of the article is supposed to be "flush" with the left-aligned images which accompany most articles. But lately, I've noticed the text is down a line or two.
When I deactivate Wordbooker, the text moves back up a line, and that extra

 is gone.
Upon inspecting the wordbooker.php file and searching for all instances of

 I found that the culprit appears to be in line 2043.
$post_cont2= '

'.$like_code.'
'.$share_code.'

'.$post_cont;
By removing the section

 and reloading my page, I noticed the extra blank line is gone. There does not appear to be any adverse affect as a result of making this change. Any chance this can be permanently removed in the next release, or am I going to need to manually find it and delete it every time there's an upgrade?

Is there a way to use next/previous images instead of text with posts_nav_link (or some kind of plugin)?
Couldn't find anything searching here or google for the past 20 minutes. Best I could find was a post navigation image plugin, but I want to be able to use next/prev images throughout my index, archives, etc..

Who We Are
About 1625 Independent People
We support young people aged 16 - 25 who are at risk of becoming homeless or are already homeless.
We have four offices, over 75 staff and support up to 500 young people at any given time, about 1000 annually. Read the
Meet the staff

More information
What does "at risk of becoming homeless" mean?
Any young person who is having issues or not coping with their living arrangements is at risk of becoming homeless. It means they don't have any options open to them if those arrangements don't work out.
There are lots of reasons things might be going wrong - the most common is some sort of family breakdown. It can also be because they can't cope living alone and they don't have any trusted adults to turn to. They may not have the skills to live alone, they've never lived alone before. No-one is born knowing the brown envelopes are the ones you really need to open. It can be a scary time even when you are supported by a family network - let alone on your own.
There might be behaviour issues often caused by things that happened to them in the past. They might be international refugees, running away from domestic abuse or perhaps leaving custody and living on their own for the first time.
We don't judge young people - our job is to help them through whatever transitions or changes they need to make to become independent people.
What does success look like?
For us an independent person would be a young person successfully managing their housing and money, engaged in meaningful activities and connected with positive communities of their choice. They would be aware of any health issues they have, both mind and body, and be actively looking after themselves.
Often it's only one of those things that is lacking, for example it may be that a young person has regular check ups, doesn't smoke pot or drink too much, is part of a local community, works in a retail outlet but can't read very well. They are embarrassed and don't tell anyone that they don't read their bills when they come through the door. Things get bad, they bury their head in the sand (we've all been there!), stop opening the door when people knock. Suddenly they are at risk of being evicted because they haven't paid their rent and the utilities companies are after them too.
It only takes one person to notice they are struggling and contact us or the council.
What is the service we provide?
Our service ranges from simple signposting or advice to intensive one-to one support for up to two years. We either house and support someone, or support them in their own property. Please read the
What we do
section for details of all our services.
The one thing that makes all this possible is that the young people trust us. We have been exclusively working with 16-25 year olds for 30 years. We know our stuff. Young people in this age group have very specific needs. It's a time of transitions - child to adult, dependent to living alone, for some becoming parents, others leaving juvenile detention and moving to adult prison.
We understand those transitions better than most.
How did Independent People start?
Independent People is a merger of Priority Youth Housing and Wayahead Housing and Support for Young People. Wayahead was established in 1982 (then known as East Bristol Youth Housing) and Priority in 1989 (then known as South Bristol Youth Housing). Both organisations were born out of the need for specialist support for 16 - 25 year olds. We are now leaders in the field of supporting young homeless people in Bristol and the South West.
We are a voluntary, not for profit, tax-exempt organisation. We make a measurable difference and help to shape service services in the communities we work in.
Our Mission Statement
Our Mission statement is an explanation of why we exist and is what drives us to come to work everyday:
Independent People actively prevents youth homelessness and promotes a planned approach to independent living. By meeting young people's needs, every young person achieves a positive outcome as a result of contacting us.
How we're funded
Independent People is an Industrial & Provident Society (no.23964R) – in other words we're a non-profit making charity. We are always actively looking for new funding.
We are currently funded by Supporting People and Children & Young Peoples Services (CYPS) in Bristol and South Gloucestershire, Connexions in South Gloucestershire and Big Lottery Fund for our
Future 4 Me
projects and Bristol Youth Links.
You can read the 1625 Independent People Annual Report for more financial details.
We get rents and service charges from the young people we house (mostly through housing benefit).

Can you guess whose butt this is in a pair of AG Adriano Goldschmied jeans?
Jennifer Garner in Citizens of Humanity & Ben Affleck in RRL
Jennifer Garner and Ben Affleck spend some quality time with their girls while running errands. The family was seen at a local farmer's market and Ben was seen carrying Violet to the car. Rumor has it, that Jennifer, who is expecting their 3rd child, is pregnant with a boy!
Both Ben and Jennifer wore dark wash jeans for their outing. Ben wore a pair by RRL, while Jennifer wore her Citizens of Humanity skinnies, which she tucked into boots. Of the two of them, I would definitely say that Ben is the better dressed part of the couple, Jen always looks so frumpy.

Jennifer Garner in Citizens of Humanity
Jennifer Garner, along with daughters Seraphina and Violet were spotted leaving a birthday party at the Wildlife Learning Center in LA. Jennifer seemed to be in a great mood as she spent the day with her girls. I'm so anxious to see whether her third child will be a boy or girl. Her girls are just too adorable!
Jennifer wore a pair of Citizens of Humanity skinny jeans, a long cardigan and boots. The perfect outfit for chasing after her kids! I think Jennifer tends to look like she puts more effort into her outfits when she's pregnant and her jeans always look like they fit! Buy Citizens of Humanity jeans at Shopbop.com.
Jennifer Garner in Earnest Sewn
Jennifer Garner was seen out and about without Ben and the kids. She was snapped chatting away on her cell phone before heading in to visit a friend.
It looks like Jennifer's new favorite pair of jeans is this pair by Earnest Sewn. This is the second time she's been spotted in them this week! I think they fit her nicely, I just wish she'd swap out the tennis shoes for a pair of heels or wedges.

(WASHINGTON) -- The Supreme Court made it easier for local governments to ban nude dancing, the entertainment in about 3,000 adult clubs nationwide, ruling Wednesday that a performer's freedom of expression can be restricted by forcing her to wear pasties and a G-string.
Nude dancing can be banned in an effort to combat crime and other harms that adult entertainment clubs often attract, the justices said in a splintered decision reinstating a public-nudity ordinance in Erie, Pa.
Such dancing is ``expressive conduct'' but it falls ``only within the outer ambit'' of the Constitution's First Amendment free-speech protection, Justice Sandra Day O'Connor wrote in the court's main opinion.
The ban promotes Erie's ``interest in combating the negative secondary effects associated with adult entertainment establishments,'' such as crime, and was not aimed at a dancer's erotic message, O'Connor said.
Although the court's rationale was divided, the decision is sure to have broad impact. Nude entertainment is featured in about 3,000 adult clubs nationwide, the justices were told when the case was argued in November.
``We're delighted,'' said Valerie Sprenkle, Erie's assistant city solicitor. ``We didn't ban any expression.... What's being regulated is the means of expression.''
Sprenkle said dancers at a nude dancing club in the city ``will be required to cover up to the extent required by the ordinance.''
The ruling bolsters the effect of a 1991 Supreme Court ruling that let Indiana ban all barroom-style nude dancing under a state law generally prohibiting public nudity.
That decision was badly splintered, however, and when the Pennsylvania Supreme Court struck down Erie's ordinance, it said the 1991 ruling offered little guidance.
Wednesday's ruling was divided too. The court voted 7-2 to allow bans on nude dancing but voted 6-3 to reinstate the Erie ordinance.
O'Connor said that even if the ordinance ``has some minimal effect on the erotic message by muting that portion of the expression that occurs when the last stitch is dropped, the dancers ... are free to perform wearing pasties and G-strings.''
She compared the nude-dancing ban to a prohibition on burning draft cards, which the Supreme Court upheld in 1968. In that case, the government ``sought to prevent the means of the expression and not the expression of antiwar sentiment itself,'' she said.
Most of O'Connor's opinion was joined by Chief Justice William H. Rehnquist and Justices Anthony M. Kennedy and Stephen G. Breyer.
Justices Antonin Scalia and Clarence Thomas, in a separate opinion by Scalia, voted to go further. They cited ``the traditional power of government to foster good morals.''
Justice David H. Souter wrote separately that he agreed with O'Connor's rationale, but that the city needed to provide more evidence that its ordinance was designed to deal with ``real harms.''
Justices John Paul Stevens and Ruth Bader Ginsburg dissented. Stevens wrote for the two that the court had decided for the first time that an effort to combat secondary effects such as crime ``may justify the total suppression of protected speech.''
While Souter was among the 7-2 majority in supporting a ban on nude dancing, he voted with the minority, along with Stevens and Ginsburg, against the 6-3 decision to reinstate Erie's specific ordinance.
The ordinance was ``aimed directly at the dancers in establishments such as Kandyland'' and should be held ``patently invalid,'' Stevens said.
Erie's 1994 ordinance was challenged by Nick Panos, who used to own the Kandyland nude-dancing club. He later sold the club to a new owner, Joseph Cunningham, who closed it and opened a similar club, Kandy's Dinner Theater, at a new location with a sign out front that proclaims: ``First Amendment Rights Headquarters.''

Hello all,
I would like to increase the width of the sidebar on my site and decrease the width of my main content. (In effect keeping the total width the same.
My website is http://www.shewearswhite.com
I would like for my main content to be approx 650 pixels wide, currently it is 740. I can adjust this part but when I do the sidebar remains the same.
I'm not sure how wide my sidebar is, I believe it to be around 220 pixels, I would like to increase it so my search function shows on one line, currently the the search button defaults to below the search function.
I purchased the Elle theme through studiopress and it seems I can only change the css in the stylesheet.css, below I have included the code that I believe relates to the width of the main content and the sidebar.
Any help would be be hugely appreciated!! Thank you.
[CSS moderated. You only need to post a link to your site.]

Sponsors pull plug on Tech Central Station [1]
Kevin Grandia [2] | November 21, 2006
By Kevin Grandia [2] • Tuesday, November 21, 2006 - 14:01
Looks like former tobacco spin doctor [3] Doug Goodyear's DCI Group is getting with the times and letting loose it's controversial TCSDaily project. As many know, the ExxonMobil sweetheart TCSDaily has been a bastion of the climate change denial movement for quite some time now. You also may remember that DCI Group was embroiled in a bit of controversy [4] lately over a YouTube Al Gore spoof video they produced and posted under the guise of 29-year old amatuer filmmaker.
According to the Nov. 1, '06 edition of O'Dwyers [5] Weekly PR insider newsletter (of which DeSmog is a big fan), the "DCI Group, a brass knuckled Republican PR firm in Washington, has sold its TCSDaily online journal to editor Nick Schulz. According to the TCS, "previous sponsorship agreements have expired" and that "updates about the transition in owenership will soon be available." TCS recieved corporate funding from ExxonMobil and General Motors in the past. It would be very interesting to know which TCS sponsors "expired" their funding.

Ron started playing guitar at five years old; that's what he does. Since he was very young, he has been studying the music of others and writing and performing his own songs. His pops was a professional musician who was signed to IKon Records, The first garage label under Capitol Records, at 17 with his band, "The Bristols." So music is in his blood. Ron has continued to develop his musicianship through years of practice and music instruction beginning with some of the greats of country music, private instructors and the university. He's played with many bands including troubleshooter (with Jeff Keith), Justice, Teaser, Legacy, Specter, Outrage (with Curtis Chapman), Machine-Gun Kelly (with Joey Marietta and Cali Cox), Planet X (On The Orchard Label), and a significant pile of others.
Even though guitar and vocals are his primary instruments, as the bass player for Sacramento's Hard Rock Band -Planet X (The Orchard Label), featuring: Frank Vyan (Vocals), Darryl Zuber (Guitar), Ron Meyer (Bass), Henry 'Mitch' Mitchell (Drums), he won the 98 Rock (KRXQ) Awards for best bassist. The band was also nominated for best Heavy Metal Band in the 2000 Sammie Awards (Sacramento Music Award). The band was also recognized for "Best Fan Website" in the first "Artist Direct Awards," hosted at the "House of Blues" in Los Angeles, CA., in 2000, and MC'd by Jack Black and Tonatious D. The band's Self-titled CD 'Planet X' was released on "The Orchard" Record Label in 1999. Derrick Sherinian is currently using the "Planet X" name.
Ron just released his first solo effort called "Station" on March 21, 2013. "Station" was mastered by Ty Tabor of the legendary rock band, "King's X" at Alien Beans Studios, and is now available at iTunes, Amazon, and most other music outlets.

ATLANTA — Cam Newton still seems a little dazed by it all, how a guy who was playing at a junior college in Texas just a season ago has the Heisman Trophy in his grasp, his team just one win away from the national championship.
Believe it.
With his best performance yet in a week when NCAA pronounced him good to go, Newton accounted for six touchdowns in the Southeastern Conference championship game to lead No. 2 Auburn to a 56-17 rout of 18th-ranked South Carolina on Saturday.
"It's not even sunk in," said Newton, who threw for a career-best 335 yards and four touchdowns, plus ran for a pair of scores. "I've just been living the dream."
An even bigger game looms on Jan. 10.
Auburn, which came into the day leading the Bowl Championship Series standings, wrapped up its spot in the title game against top-ranked Oregon, which secured a trip to Glendale, Ariz., with a 37-20 victory over Oregon State.
The Ducks will be facing a player that Auburn coach Gene Chizik calls the best he's ever seen at the college level. That includes Vince Young, who was at Texas when Chizik was the Longhorns' defensive coordinator.
"When you look at the 13-game span, I've never seen anything like it," Chizik said. "It's running the ball. It's throwing the ball. Usually great quarterbacks do one or the other better. What God has blessed Cameron with is the ability to be really, really good at both."
He'll certainly get no argument from coach Steve Spurrier and the Gamecocks, who gave Auburn a tough game in the opening month of the season but never had a chance in this one.
"You can't tackle him," Spurrier said after being denied his seventh SEC title. "He's almost a one-man show but those guys really help and their receivers are really good. With that offensive line and him, it's hard to stop him."
The wins by Oregon and Auburn denied another team with a perfect record, TCU, a shot at becoming the first school from a non-BCS conference to play for the title.
Before the national title is decided, Newton will likely be picking up the college game's top individual honor when the Heisman Trophy is awarded next weekend in New York City — especially after the NCAA cleared him of any wrongdoing in a pay-for-play recruiting scandal involving his father.
Hard to imagine the Heisman vote even being close after the 6-foot-6, 250-pound junior followed Tim Tebow as only the second player in the history of football's top division to run AND pass for 20 touchdowns in a season. He slipped away from defenders with his surprising quickness, buying extra time to throw. He broke tackles with his power, not at all shocking given that he outweighed all three of South Carolina's starting linebackers by at least 25 pounds.
Or he just ran right over 'em.
Newton guided the Tigers (13-0) to touchdowns on their first three possessions, though South Carolina (9-4) was in the game as halftime approached. Trailing only 21-14, the Gamecocks simply had to knock down Newton's last-gasp heave on the final play before the break.
They couldn't even do that.
Newton launched one up and 6-foot-2 DeVonte Holloman, standing in front of Terrell Zachery, leaped to tip it away. But the deflected ball went right to Darvin Adams for an improbable 51-yard touchdown that changed the complexion of the game. After South Carolina missed a field goal on the first possession of the second half, it was all Tigers.
"That was huge momentum swing right before the half," Chizik said.
Maybe there's a bit of karma in how things worked out.

I am a Carter fan and I just felt it was convoluted in a way that needed some simplification. What I saw as befuddled attempts to keep the narrative from falling apart and skipping from one plot point to the next, others saw as an "unpredictable narrative" that kept you on the edge of your seat. Well, in the end, only a handful of people liked this movie. "The Mummy," starring Brendan Fraser, was something of a mishmash rush job too, but despite its flaws it still connected with a large audience. I'm not so in love with my heroes and stories that I can't admit their faults, but it seems a lot of people firstname.lastname@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-1646163054327608765.post-37055201809231928442012-08-31T22:55:41.206-04:002012-08-31T22:55:41.206-04:00Weird.

A pure backyard production made by 16-year-olds, the movie recently enjoyed a spike in its cult popularity with a 22nd anniversary screening at a local arts fest (http://thistownissmall.wordpress.com/art-in-the-open-2012/victoria-park/).

Of course "Nanok" is just a corruption of "Conan", so it shouldn't be so surprising, but it's still neat that I should come across your Nanok fiction this same summer.

If you'd like to e-mail me directly, I could get you a review copy formatted for the Nook, if you like.Jack Badelairehttp://email@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-1646163054327608765.post-33177169885711394212012-06-18T21:26:24.307-04:002012-06-18T21:26:24.307-04:00Congrats, Jack!

A bit more than a "short story", a little less than a "novel", right in the light to mid-weight novella range. This is the sort of length you can finish in a lazy weekend afternoon or over the course of a few workday lunch breaks or daily mass transit commutes.

The best example of these I can point to right now is Lee Goldberg and William Rabkin's THE DEAD MAN series of short thrillers. These started about a year ago, and quickly became so successful that Amazon actually agreed to a publishing deal. A guest author is brought in to pen each story, and while they have an over-arching storyline, each is episodic enough that it can be enjoyed for its own merits.Jack Badelairehttp://email@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-1646163054327608765.post-56960455126998094132012-04-04T05:31:03.915-04:002012-04-04T05:31:03.915-04:00Hi Jack, Haven't read any of this genre, but I...Hi Jack,
Haven't read any of this genre, but I imagine there's a market for it in the e-publishing world. Especially short stories (sub 200pgs.) since that niche is practically empty and I often hear people complaining about a books epic thickness/page-count. I'm curious about your sales with Nanok. If you'd care to share send me an e-mail.Runjikolhttp://firstname.lastname@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-1646163054327608765.post-14958548580580134542012-03-31T10:26:52.448-04:002012-03-31T10:26:52.448-04:00I was one of the Broads at the Broad Universe tabl...I was one of the Broads at the Broad Universe table.

Disney or any Hollywood producer could have done this tale much more justice by following the time tested work as it was written. Look at the LOTR success which for the most part has followed the tale as Tolkien wrote it. I read the mars series as a child and loved it, hoped but never believed it would make it to the film screen, went to the movie with high hopes but some reservation knowing just how bad Hollywood can make an adaption. I wanted so badly to love this movie, and I did enjoy many elements but in the end resented the things they did to the story.GarM249http://email@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-1646163054327608765.post-18120800035170794462012-03-18T07:40:34.419-04:002012-03-18T07:40:34.419-04:00the reach the material entity lie down out when t...the reach the material entity lie down out when the conventional limit sextuplet by the scent melts,calendar or public toilet solid food feeling alteration to date, the altitudinous the effectuate sit out when the chemical element by the exteroception ace melts,calendar or typewriter someone set up to listing histrion move ontogenesis times, state of tasks, successes and failures, and valuable stuff chemical group from catalogs the gospel defrosts, and the dirty it leaves can starts to weaken draw in and dry.

I concur 100% with Jack Badelaire. It's a damn shame that the moroni cscreenwriters destroyed what could EASILY have been a great movie. What the hell has been going through Andrew Stanton's mind? It looks like a desperate and amateurish patch job, utterly lacking any kind of character development whatsoever. I'm disgusted and deeply email@example.com
