Lead In 'Toxic Waste Short Circuits Bubble Gum' Prompts Recall
Here they go again.
The folks at Candy Dynamics say there's too much lead in a batch of their Toxic Waste Short Circuits Bubble Gum. So the marketer of tongue-torturing sour confections is recalling a bunch of the stuff (Lot #15070SC12 to be precise) sold from early in January until March 18th.
The affected gum was sold in 3.2 ounce packages. Food and Drug Administration tests found 0.189 parts per million of lead, a truly toxic metal. That amount is almost twice the FDA limit for lead in candy — 0.1 parts per million.
Just to be perfectly clear, the company says there haven't been any reports of anyone getting sick from the gum, which was sold all over the United States. But too much lead can pose a health hazard for babies, small kids and pregnant women.
Earlier this year the Indianapolis-based company, which imports the gum and other candies from Pakistan, recalled all flavors of its Toxic Waste Nuclear Sludge Chew Bars for having too much lead. Then and now, the company said it was doing so "out of an abundance of caution."
Candy Dynamics says it will keep selling unaffected Short Circuits Bubble Gum.

The mechanical behavior of the vertebrate skull is often modeled using free-body analysis of simple geometric structures and, more recently, finite-element (FE) analysis. In this study, we compare experimentally collected in vivo bone strain orientations and magnitudes from the cranium of the American alligator with those extrapolated from a beam model and extracted from an FE model. The strain magnitudes predicted from beam and FE skull models bear little similarity to relative and absolute strain magnitudes recorded during in vivo biting experiments. However, quantitative differences between principal strain orientations extracted from the FE skull model and recorded during the in vivo experiments were smaller, and both generally matched expectations from the beam model. The differences in strain magnitude between the data sets may be attributable to the level of resolution of the models, the material properties used in the FE model, and the loading conditions (i.e., external forces and constraints). This study indicates that FE models and modeling of skulls as simple engineering structures may give a preliminary idea of how these structures are loaded, but whenever possible, modeling results should be verified with either in vitro or preferably in vivo testing, especially if precise knowledge of strain magnitudes is desired. © 2005 Wiley-Liss, Inc.

Okay, this may be obvious and I've done it before (perhaps I'm too hungry to think right now) but I want to ask and maybe over lunch I'll get an answer. :)
I have domain mapping set up and just mapped a new domain to a subsite, no prb. But I can't figure out how to map another new domain to the main site of the network. It is going to the network site registration page instead of public_html.
Main domain: http://coccoyoga.com
Prev mapped domain (works) http://grumpyyoga.com
New domain (doesn't work): http://yogaforskeptics.com
Is it something in the config file for the main domain?

i have a linux server which users connect to with SSH.
my users only upload and download content from their

Basicly, I want them to be limited to see and use only their home folder.
I read that it might not be a good idea to do so, since they nead read premissions to run programs and scripts, but again: they are only downloading\uploading content to their home dir.
How can I do it?

The flagship of the Sea Shepherd Conservation Society is
heading to Dunedin to refuel before rejoining the fight
against Japanese whaling in the Antarctic.
Steve Irwin is due to arrive in Dunedin at 5.30pm tomorrow
and depart the following day at 4pm.
The vessel's propeller was temporarily entangled with ropes
following a clash with Japanese whaling vessels last week.
The visit would be the second Dunedin visit by a Sea Shepherd
vessel in a week, following the arrival of Sam Simon on
That vessel left the city on Tuesday bound for the Ross Sea
where the whaling confrontation had been heating up.
A Sea Shepherd spokesman confirmed Steve Irwin, named after
the late Australian wildlife advocate, would be visiting
Dunedin for fuel and supplies before ''heading back to the
Southern Ocean as quickly as possible''.
''They will be in and out pretty quickly,'' the spokesman
This week Foreign Minister Murray McCully reiterated the New
Zealand Government's strong opposition to Japanese whaling in
the Southern Ocean.
''However we also oppose any activities that put lives or
vessels at risk.''
Glenn Inwood, a spokesman for Japan's Institute of Cetacean
Research, declined to comment on the visit.

Eye Painting tutorial by equinestudiosWatch
©2011-2016 equinestudios
Eye tutorial as requested by someone - I can't quite remember who.
Yes, my eye method really is that easy.
Horses:: *venomxbaby
Hope this helps people out.
This helped me so much, strangely. ^,^
I wouldn't say this eye turned out as a circle, but oh well xD Its still the method even though the shaping is a little incorrect.
Thanks guys.
thanks, this helped me so much!
Horses pupils aren't circles. They're sideways ovals. xD
Thank you Cali! I'm gonna need this xD

EdmodoEdmodo is a social networking site designed for the classroom setting. It has a user interface that is similar to facebook and is relatively easy to use. It is set up so that teachers can have classes and the students are enrolled in those classes, which are groups. Having this resource in the classroom allows for students to be able to check missed work from their own homes. Edmodo is also a great way to be able to teach students about how to properly and securing use the internet. Edmodo also provides a way for teachers and students to share notes, files and links. Teachers can send alrerts, events, and assignments to students.
HistoryWorking at different schools in the Chicago area, technologists Nicolas Borg and Jeff O'Hara founded Edmodo. Edmodo was founded in September 2008; The site was acquired by the Fushion Projects, a subsidiary of Revolution Learning in February 2010. The CEO/COO of the Fushion Project was Chuck Rosendahl.
PurposeThe purpose of Edmodo is for a teacher to be able to communicate with students via the internet. Teachers can have multiple classes, and can add students to their classes. They can then post assignments, announcements, and polls that students can participate in, and more.
The interface that Edmodo uses is similar to that of Facebook. It allows for students to turn assignments into teachers. Below is a image of a screen shot what a students home page can look like. The whole site is designed in order to allow social media into the classroom. There are assignments, calendars, grade-books, and library part to the site. Instructors can easily monitor the site and can see what their students are doing. Many students already know how to use Facebook, so using the site is very easy because they are similar. For younger students, the site is laid out in a way they it is easy to navigate.
GroupsGroups are constructed for students classes in Edmodo; any time a teacher post a new blog on Edmodo for her/his students, the new post shows up in the notification box. Once you have joined Edmodo you can set up any number of "small groups". To create a "small group" you simply go to the Members page for a group, you can access this by hovering over the group name, and clicking "Members".
In the side bar located to the left you will see a link to make a small group, once your there click it and assign a name that suits your topic or convention. After you have done all of that you can now highlight students name in the left box and click the arrow to assign them to your small group in the right box.
PostsThe posts that can be made by a teacher on Edmodo include, assignments, interactive polls, quizes, alerts, and feeds. Assignments are text based posts that can include links, but Edmodo will let the student know when an assignment is due or when it is late. Polls, can include multiple choice answers based on a question, and students are able to vote on the poll, and Edmodo will display the results after the student has voted. Alerts are pretty much announcements made by the teacher.
Grades/LibraryOn the grades tab, you are able to choose which classes grades you want to see. Then it lists all the assignments that instructor has given and whether or not they have been turned in. There is also a new feature, a graph that tracks, over time, the assignments in which you turn in and the ones you don't. Teachers can grade work and post the grade they are giving their student. By selecting a certain assignment a teacher and student can comment on it and upload files to it. After clicking on an assignment you can turn it in as well. The Library portion of Edmodo has a "backpack". Your backpack is where you can add links that link to site that you are using for assignments. It's like a bookmarking site. You can created files to keep everything organized as well. You can also view links and attachments that others have posted through their own posts.

Visual Art Scariest Art Event This Year
posted by October 31 at 14:10 PMon
In this week's In Art News column, I report my disappointment in the current exhibition Century 21:
Century 21: Dealer's Choice is a display of the 49 Washington artists that Seattle art dealers (with the exceptions of Scott Lawrimore and the fellows of Platform Gallery) believe are the best. It is intended to be a historic occasion. The membership of the Seattle Art Dealers Association has never created an exhibition before, but beyond that the show turns out not to be particularly historic, or even particularly meaningful. It is conservative, narrow, and doesn't come close to capturing the dimension or ambition of what's happening on the ground. … There's nothing new here, but how could there be? The youngest artist in the show is 33; 26 of the 49 artists are over 50. From this bias one can presume, whether or not it's true, that Seattle dealers have not been doing their homework for a very long time, which is a depressing thought.
What I didn't have space to write about was the panel discussion about the exhibition that took place last week. It was easily the most depressing and, ultimately, frightening art event I've been to all year.
It felt like a small-town meeting, with everybody congratulating everybody else on the installation of a new four-way stop. The panel included Matthew Kangas, whose biggest sin, I've realized since I wrote about him a few years back, is not shaking down artists for free art, but his sense of total self-satisfaction. At the panel discussion, he twice compared the exhibition, for which he wrote the pamphlet notes, to the Whitney Biennial. He predicted that this exhibition would become the new biennial for the Northwest.
Kangas has been writing about Northwest art for more than 30 years and this is his vision for it? A weird, scattered array of artists, some of them totally irrelevant and many of the greats missing, including not a single artist under 30 (and more than half over 50), and organized by a trade group of art dealers? Yikes.
Worst of all was the air of importance that presided over the whole thing. There were references to "us" as the Seattle art world, which is a little like taking Ballard for the whole city.
There was almost no conversation at all about the art on display. The conversation instead turned to how to manage a public collection, whether corporations should collect local artists, whether print criticism is dead, whether the Northwest has a signature style, how Matthew Kangas became the writer he is today, and other cul-de-sacs and cliches. Nobody pointed out that the show they were seeing was dull and small compared to the wealth of activity out there. An older woman stood up to say how excited she and her husband were with what's happening in Seattle art. I was angry: That's defrauding the elderly.
I considered standing up and say something, but I didn't know where to begin. I also wanted to march into the back office of the Wright Exhibition Space, where the show is, and drag Virginia Wright into the gallery to stare at some of the worst works on display. What's the deal with the Wrights these days? Back in the day, Virginia Wright had the best eye in Seattle. She didn't just bring great national names to Seattle; she brought great examples of their work here. She knew the difference between first-tier and everything else. Now her space is devoted to this? An inchoate group show making bold claims that are backed up by association with her name?

Remember to finish your rides at the Suncourt Plaza with some fine refreshments at the Fern Cafe
2016 Club Champs
Results are out now on the results page.
Club News
Taupo Cycling Club has been asked to hold a special meeting to consider a change to the Club's constitution (which the current committee supports). The special meeting will be held immediately prior to the commencement of the Club Champs on Sunday 22 May 2016.
The first change to the constitution relates to the commencement of the financial year, which is proposed become 1 January instead of 1 October. This will ensure that the financial year aligns with the membership year.
The second change concerns the timing of the annual general meeting (AGM) which, at present, must be held in either, October, November, or December. At the AGM officers of the Club's committee are appointed. The timing of the meeting is problematic, as it occurs at a time of year when the spring and summer series are underway, making the transition difficult for the incoming committee. It is proposed that the AGM be held within 6 months of the end of the new financial year – likely to be sometime in May or June (and giving the incoming committee more time to get ready for the spring/summer series).
The resolutions to be voted on are:
1. clause 11.4 of the constitution be amended to provide that the financial year of the Club shall be 1 January to 31 December (commencing 1 January 2016);
2. clause 7.1 of the constitution be amended to provide that the annual general meeting shall be held within 6 months of the end of the financial year (with the next AGM to be held in 2017); and
3. such consequential amendments as are necessary to give effect to the above.
If there are any queries regarding these changes, please feel free to contact any of the Club's committe
The Taupo Cycling Club approached the Forestry Manager about access to Tram road with the following question:
The Taupo Cycling Club used to ride through Tram road as a group on a Sunday morning ride before it was closed several years ago.
Would it be possible to have access on a Sunday Tmorning on a regular basis, either every Sunday, every second Sunday or once a month.
News For the full response.
Dynamo Team Series 2016
Ryan Blair, Nick Hume(Forestland Wheelers Cat 3) Andrew Wilson (Speedworks Diamante Cat 4) and Tony Tinworth (Dynamo Sports Cat 4) have been racing in the Dynamo Events Teams Championship Series. We have just finished Race 5 in Pokeno, and the final race(day) of the series will be on Sunday 3rd April in Tokoroa with a TTT and roadrace.
At this race we will get details of the 2016 series. From speaking to Stephen Cox I understand that Category 4 will change to category 4A and 4B, and it is likely the Elite Women's grade will be assimilated into the other grades. Category 3 and 4 races are approximately 80km. All races have Leader's jerseys, Prize money, commissaires , neutral support, managers meeting and very professionally run. Teams can start 6 riders from a roster of 8, top 3 times to decide team placings.
The 2015 series sold out in about 3 weeks – much quicker than expected. The 2015 teams are being offered a place in 2016 championships with a two week acceptance period. I think I have added Taupo Cycling Club to this list.
Taupo Cycling Club are looking for 6 to 16 riders and one or two team managers to allow us to enter to teams – one Cat 4A and one Cat 4B.
- 4A – Tuesday B grade or Competitive C – Looking to win races as individuals and teams
- 4B – Tuesday C working really hard or D grade – Looking to gain experience in racing open events and develop race-craft.
The good thing about teams racing is that a rider can work for team-mates if having an off day, infiltrate/instigate a breakaway if not a strong sprinter, lead out/chase or force the pace to drop opposing team's riders. You are committing to racing once a month from October-April (excluding Jan)
You need to be 17 or older.
If you would like to be a Manager then you will need to organise a team – Entries, rider liaison, attend races.
Try this url for more details http://dynamoevents.co.nz/events/category/the-team-championship/
Email me if you are wanting to be in – talk to Ryan, Nick, Andrew or Tony if you are not sure.
If there are not sufficient entries I imagine the 4 of us will seek rides elsewhere…this series has been great. email@example.com

Cycle Challenge wrapup
Thank you all who volunteered on Friday evening. It was a great event, and the course was an improvement on the longer course of previous years. Some pretty impressive speeds going down Tongariro street.
Well done to all those who entered & completed the various events - around the lake, MTB etc. Ex Taupo rider, Frank Sutton, had a great ride in the Elite Men & finished a strong 6th, in a very quick time.
Some of our club juniors where part of the Taupo Nui A Tia Relay team that took out 2nd place overall in the 4 person Relay Team event on Saturday in a time of 5 hrs 34 mins, beaten only by a team of 4 men. Their time also placed them 1st in the mixed team division and they were the 1st school team home - earning themselves $500.00. Team members were Jack Edwards (leg 1), Maddy Edwards (leg 2), Joep Lenior (leg 3) and Hannah Howell (leg 4).
Taupo Cycling Club provides activities for cycling enthusiasts.
The club was the major driving force behind the building of the local cycling velodrome. This project was supported by the community, through various fund raising activies.
The goal of the club is to encourage & develop the sport of cycling, through organised activities.
As well as organising weekly rides like the Sunday Morning Social Ride, Tuesday Night Racing and Skills Session or Racing at the Velodrome, the club encourages entry into a variety of local, regional and international cycling events and you can check out the event calendar to find out more.
Keep up to date with everything cycling in the Lake Taupo region by subscribing to our eNewsletter, liking us on Facebook or checking out our Latest News page. Get in touch with Taupo Cycling Club to find out more!
The Sunday Morning Rides are in 2 main groups, the faster bunch at 8:30 and the slower bunch at 9:00. For more information see Weekly Rides Tab and: Sun Morning Rides
View our Taupo Cycling Club Gallery to see more great pics and video clips!
The Taupo cycling club needs you! We have had a number of our wonderful committee members resign and move away from here.
I know it sounds cliched but we can only run the club on volunteer help.

Parenting a child with a hearing and vision loss can be challenging, isolating and overwhelming from the shock of the initial diagnosis to the search for supports, answers and resources. Even what to call it can be confusing - combined vision hearing and visually loss, dual sensory diagnosis, or deafblindness?
Each family has its own journey at its own pace. But as we stumble along this uncharted territory it is important to know two things: you are not alone and there are other families for whom the details are different but the diagnosis the same. We can all learn from one another if we reach out. How to do that?
The second essential point is that the diagnosis of combined hearing and vision loss is a low incidence disability and receives federal funding used to connect, educate, and benefit families, enabling us to reach our potential - to provide technical assistance to our child at home and in school and to empower us as families to survive, and yes, even thrive.
As you have the time and as you are ready, take the time to search this site for the resources that can help you. Read Vibrations, call the project for a home or school visit, attend a Family Learning Retreat or Summer Institute, borrow books or videos from the Lending Library, or reach out to the parents affiliated with the project. It all exists for you, your child and your family.
Reach out and connect and you will reap the benefits!
Phone Call Series - Family
The Western States Deaf-Blind Projects of Arizona, Colorado, Idaho, Nevada, New Mexico, Oregon, Utah, Washington, and Wyoming are pleased to announce the second in a series of three parent
webinars/phone calls related to stress, self-care, resilience, and happiness.
Date: April 12, 2015
Topic: De-stress Your Life: Building Resiliency and Optimism
Guest Presenter: Dr. Nancy Eldredge from Tucson, Arizona
Time: 7:30 – 9:00
About the Topic: Nancy will provide strategies to help build and recover resiliency, to improve self-care, and to cultivate optimism. She will introduce a short discussion of the role of neurobiology in contributing to burn out when we are under constant stress. More importantly, she will provide practical techniques that mitigate chronic stress and help us bounce back from stress and promote healthy and happy living.

For more information about the date and location of the next retreat, please contact Gina Quintana.
PEP Conferences
CDE sponsors the Parents Encouraging Parents Conferences, which are family centered conferences designed to offer support, information, and education to parents with children who have a disability, ages birth to 21 years, and professionals.

Top 10: Budget AirlinesLet's face it; the great era of luxury air travel is long past. It ended with the airship Hindenburg crashing down in flames at Lakehurst, N.J., and after the last of the China Clippers touched down in Hong Kong Bay. Maybe that's not as bad as it sounds. Back then, a trans-Pacific flight could cost as much as a small house.
For a short while, we enjoyed a great era of budget travel when savage competition ensured low prices, enhanced perks and cheap amenities. However, with the collapse of Wall Street that's all changed. Today we're faced with decreased airline choices and fewer options and, it seems, increased fees for everything from soda pop to pillows. At least one of last year's top 10 budget airlines, Royal Bengal, has ceased to exist.
Well, it's time to suck it up, pack your own damn pillow, BLT, bag of chips, and a flask of duty-free Cutty Sark, and get on with it. There are still cheap carriers operating out there, and here are 10 of the best.

California Sells 19.5 Million Carbon Allowances at $11.48 Each
California, the second-most polluting state in the U.S., sold 19.5 million carbon allowances at auction for $11.48 each, in line with analysts' expectations.
Units of BP Plc, Chevron Corp. and Calpine Corp. were among the companies that qualified to buy permits in the Feb. 19 auction, a report posted on the state Air Resources Board's website today showed. The agency doesn't disclose the names of winning bidders. The state received 1.27 offers for every permit put up for sale.
The allowances, each permitting the release of a metric ton of carbon, were offered as a record dry spell shrinks California's hydropower generation, increasing demand for more emissions-intensive, natural gas-fired power plants. Gas for delivery at trading hubs across the state surged to records earlier this month as frigid weather swept across the region, further adding to demand for the heating fuel.
The initial reaction to the auction results was "muted," with minimal trading activity being reported, according to Lenny Hochschild, head of global carbon markets for White Plains, New York-based Evolution Markets. "There doesn't appear to be a lot of interest or activity at the moment," Hochschild, who is based in San Francisco, said in a telephone interview.
Participants in the auction were fully pricing in "the most recent greenhouse-gas data showing the market is long at least through the first compliance period," running through 2014, Emilie Mazzacurati, managing director of the carbon market consulting firm Four Twenty Seven in Berkeley, California, said by e-mail.
Allowances Gain
Futures based on permits that can be used to cover emissions as early as this year settled on Feb. 21 at $12.15 a ton, data compiled by CME Group Inc. show. The allowances, for delivery in December, have climbed 1.7 percent this year.
California, which released more emissions than every U.S. state except Texas in 2011, put up 19.5 million permits at the Feb. 19 auction that can be used as early as this year. The state also auctioned 9.26 million permits that can be used for compliance beginning in 2017, known as "advance" allowances. Those went for $11.38 each.
Allowances were expected to sell near the minimum price allowed by the state, or the "floor" price, of $11.34, William Nelson, a Bloomberg New Energy Finance analyst in New York, said by e-mail.
More Confidence
Mazzacurati predicted that both the 2014 and advance allowances would sell out at the auction, with 2014 permits going for $12.10 and the future 2017 ones for $12.80.
"The market has gained confidence in the long-term viability of the program," she said.
ICIS, a London-based petrochemical market data company, lowered its forecasts for the auction's settlement prices after California Senate President Pro Tem Darrell Steinberg of Sacramento proposed legislation Feb. 20 that would tax transportation fuel suppliers for carbon emissions instead of regulating them under the cap-and-trade program as planned next year.
"Uncertainty regarding the transport fuel sector in the second compliance period could lower demand and push the price lower than previously anticipated," Jon Ornelas, director of U.S. emissions markets at ICIS, said by e-mail today. "Current auction prices could clear below $12 and the future vintage much closer to the floor."
Ornelas had initially said 2014 allowances would sell for around $12.10 with advance permits going for $11.75.
During the auctions, companies submit confidential bids for the number of allowances they want at a specific price. The highest bidder is awarded permits first, then the second-highest, and so on until the all of the permits for sale have been called for. Then all bidders pay the price of the lowest winning offer.

As Harry walked into King's Cross, he was on overdrive. Taking in every detail. Sirius was walking behind, looking around, even occasionally greeting others.
Harry came to a stop.
"Er... Sirius.... were is Platform 9 3/4?" Asked a confused Harry.
"Oh, run into the barrier." Said Sirius casually, pointing to the pillar. Harry looked at Sirius, who merely nodded. Shaking his head, Harry ran.
He was closer to the barrier... he was going to crash....
But he didn't.
As if the barrier were nothing, he went right through it into a different station.
Harry was, needless to say, amazed. Soon, Sirius appeared smiling, with an 'I told you so..." look on his face.
"Harry! Sirius! Over here!" Came a yell. Harry turned his cart, and walked over the the Weasley clan. He was greeted by all of them.
"You know Harry..." Fred said.
"We were thinking," continued George.
"You should try one of our new experiments." Finished Fred.
Mrs Weasley shot them a glance, and they promptly piled into the train.
"Harry dear, let me take your stuff in." Mrs. Weasley said, smiling warmly.
"No, Mrs. Weasley, it's fine.."
"I insist, don't worry about me." Mrs. Weasley waved her wand, and the luggage and Hedwig's cage zoomed into the train, and Harry saw them all organize in a compartment.
"There you are, Harry." Mrs Weasley said, as a huge horn burst from the train. She exclaimed, before bustling her children into the train. Harry turned and hugged Sirius.
"You'll write to me, won't you?" Asked Harry.
"Every day, if you want me too." Said Sirius.
"Not every day," spoke a laughing Harry.
"You've got to get going now. Don't worry, I'm sure Professor Lupin will happily send me letters of your behavior." Sirius said, smiling.
Harry waved, and walked into the train, past students, into a compartment comprising of Ron and Fred and George.
"The horn sounded once more, and they all piled toward the window, waving frantically at Sirius and Mrs. Weasley.
At last, the train made a turn, and Harry Potter was Hogwarts-bound.

EVERY day the commuters come to Manhattan from Ronkonkoma (1 hour, 20 minutes, Long Island Rail Road) and Fairfield (1 hour, 15 minutes, Metro-North), Clinton (about 2 hours, driving) and Ocean Grove (1 hour, 55 minutes, Academy bus). They make New York what it is: the metropolitan area with the longest commuting times in the nation.
And now the Census Bureau is filling in a picture of an ever-expanding, ever-more-congested daily trip. In new figures on what is cheerfully called ''journey to work'' time, New York is not just the top state but the first to pass the half-hour milestone, with an average commuting time of 31.2 minutes. New Jersey is third, at 28.7 minutes. The national average is 24.3 minutes.
Commuting times in the New York City area are always longer than the statewide averages, but even the higher number for the metropolitan area, whatever it turns out to be, should sound good to people who commute to the city from Orange County or central Jersey, not to mention Pennsylvania and -- it happens -- Delaware.
The average should even sound good to people in the city's outer boroughs; recent studies show that they spend about 42 minutes getting to work, compared with about 29 minutes for those in Bergen and Passaic Counties and 33 minutes for Long Islanders. Residents of Los Angeles take about 26 minutes to get to work.
Commuting in the New York area is unique for many reasons. Transportation experts point out that a well-developed public transit system, put forth as a solution to sprawl, fosters opportunities for people to undertake a 50- or 60-mile trip.
Alan E. Pisarski, a transportation consultant and the author of ''Commuting in America,'' said the average trip to work here is extended because ''a tremendous number are rail trips which are colossally long from Princeton, New Haven, whatever, both in distances and times.''
Transit agencies are making this increasingly possible. The Metro-North Railroad, which has seen a 15 percent increase in ridership in five years, last year extended its Harlem line to Wassaic, N.Y., 82 miles north of Manhattan. New Jersey Transit, with a 30 percent increase in weekday rail trips since 1995, has opened a new station in Hamilton Township, south of Princeton.
Then, too, while the marathon journey to Manhattan is the classic long-distance story, the great majority of suburbanites commute to other suburbs, across more than two dozen counties and even to and from other metropolitan areas like Hartford and Philadelphia. The traffic congestion, meanwhile, thickens everywhere.
Finally, transportation experts say, the New York commuter has a long-established, well-tested tolerance for pain.
Jim Heaney, 51, a vice president at Chase Manhattan Bank on 33rd Street, commuted for years from Patchogue and then, deciding that the trip would not be any harder from Pennsylvania, moved to Langhorne, 30 miles north of Philadelphia. Now he gets up at 4:40 a.m. and takes Interstate 95 to the Princeton Junction station.
The Princeton Junction station is a trial in itself. The wait for a parking space is two and half years, and the shortage of seats on the trains became even more painful when New Jersey Transit opened a station in Hamilton Township, between Trenton and Princeton, two years ago.
And yet Mr. Heaney (''I've never been a city person'') said of his 2-hour, 10-minute commute, ''I think I would do this for the rest of my life.'' He used to live in a four-bedroom colonial, he said, and now he lives in a four-bedroom colonial with lower taxes. He listens to the radio in the car and reads suspense novels on the train.
Mr. Pisarski said: ''People do make rational decisions. People can contribute their travel time as a substitute for a mortgage. Instead of paying $20,000 more on a mortgage, they add 20 minutes to their commuting time.''
The rule of thumb when he worked in New York, for what was then the Tri-State Transportation Council, was that ''you saved $1,000 per exit on the Long Island Expressway; now it's probably $10,000 an exit.''
Mr. Pisarski's own rational decision was to find another metropolitan area. A native New Yorker, he commuted to lower Manhattan from the Flushing-Bayside area of Queens and never found a better arrangement that he could afford. He now lives in northern Virginia.
''May as well do what I do in a place I like,'' he said.
Actually, the area Mr. Pisarski chose is second to New York in the new Census figures, which place Virginia 10th, Maryland 2nd and the District of Columbia 4th in commuting times. Filling out the top 10 are Illinois, Georgia, California, Massachusetts and West Virginia.
Connecticut, at 23.5 minutes, was slightly below the national average.
The states with the shortest commutes are large and wide-open spaces: Wyoming, Nebraska, Montana, South Dakota and North Dakota, the lowest at 15.4 minutes.
The Census figures, released this month, will not be broken down by metropolitan area until this fall. The numbers are not from the long form on the 2000 Census but from a new annual survey, a sampling of 700,000 households, intended to yield continual updates on many of the same questions.
But transportation experts say the new data is consistent with other recent studies and should be borne out by the results of the 2000 Census long form on commuting times.

The New Jerusalem Bible (NJB) is a Catholic translation of the Bible published in 1985. The New Jerusalem Bible (NJB) has become the most widely used Roman Catholic Bible outside of the United States. It has the imprimatur of Cardinal George Basil Hume.
Like its predecessor, the Jerusalem Bible, the New Jerusalem Bible (NJB) version is translated "directly from the Hebrew, Greek or Aramaic." The 1973 French translation, the Bible de Jerusalem, is followed only "where the text admits to more than one interpretation." Introductions and notes, with some modifications, are taken from the Bible de Jerusalem.

Fritz the Cat. Mr. Natural. Flakey Floont. And, of course, the ubiquitous "Keep on Truckin'" dude. These are the 60s comic icons most readily associated with cartoonist Robert Crumbdrug-induced characters indelibly tied to a bygone era. And, thankfully, they have very little to do with Terry Zwigoff's intensely personal documentary of the artist and his family, Crumb.
Instead, Crumb is a revelatory probe inside the artistic process itselfhow R. Crumb's family, upbringing, social outlook, personality, and sexual obsessions have unavoidably influenced his work. This is a story of an artist who follows his muse for good or bad, wherever it may take him. And it draws him into very dark territory indeed.
Beyond the fact that this is a rare, in-depth look at an American family that is extremely imperfect ("dysfunctional" is the catch phrase), Crumb investigates a man well worth examining. R. Crumb subverted the very idea of what comics are in this country. Up until the '60s, comics were principally aimed at children (with the exception of E.C. Comics like Mad and Tales from the Crypt), chock-full of caped crusaders beating up caped marauders. Crumb (while admittedly under the influence of LSD) instead drew comics that came directly from his id, creating often-bizarre characters and tackling satiric themes. These weren't happy little critters meant to entertainthese were true artistic expressions in a comic idiom.
Remarkably, they became popular, single-handedly sparking a new genre of comics dubbed "underground" because they were drawn by untrained artists, dealt with counter-cultural material, and were mostly read by hippies (who, ironically, Crumb abhorred). Later, through the '70s and '80s (and into the '90s), Crumb's work became increasingly autobiographical, using himself as a character, nakedly revealing his neurosis, fears, and prejudices. An infamous misanthrope, Crumb's scathing cartoon stories revel in their distaste for "progress," American culture, and himself.
But why should you care about a cartoonist, of all people? Because comicssequential cartoon art that relates a storyare a uniquely American art form. And it's an art form still in flux; although infantile superheroes command the dollars and attention, there is a growing contingent of artists influenced by Crumb. They are creating true "adult" comics that have little to do with muscle-bound superguys drooling over bikini-clad space babes, and instead attack personal themes previously reserved for "literature."
Crumb reveals how it all came about, how R. Crumb became the world-renowned artist he is today, and why his work is so compelling. Filmed over a six-year period, Crumb interviews the artist's former lovers, fellow cartoonists, critics, his wife Aline Kominsky and (most importantly) his brothers Max and Charles. It is here in his family's recollections that the roots of Crumb's genius are ferreted out: from the torment of growing up mostly unloved, misunderstood and unable to connect with any of his peers. But where this early angst prodded Crumb into creating commercially viable art, it only sent his equally creative brothers into the deep wells of mental illness.
Charles, who inspired his younger brothers to draw, is interviewed in the dark confines of their mother's house, where he has lived all his life. Heavily medicated since his suicide attempts of 20 years before, his haggard face and slow speech fail to mask a keen intelligence and an ability to self-analyze. Chortling, he recalls how he used to barely restrain himself from taking an ax and driving it through young Robert's heart as he slept. Robert laughs in amazement. Max, on the other hand, is a sex offender who lives monastically, meditating on a bed of nails in a furnitureless apartment, still painting amazingly off-kilter works featuring Japanese women.
Through their tales of a tyrannical father who wanted one of his hopelessly nerdy sons to "be a Marine" and of a mother addicted to amphetamines, the Crumbs go beyond being a cast of eccentrics to embodying the tragedy of dysfunctional families. Certainly, this is not the main point of Crumb, but it composes its most mesmerizing scenes and provides a window into the soul of an artist who tries not to think of why he draws what he does.
As Crumb relates in the movie, "I do this stuff, and then I'm horrified and embarrassed when I see it. I look at the paper, and I say 'Oh, my God,' but somehow I can't stop doing it." And there could be no better explanation of the creative process than that.

Hello, I am trying to find a solution for being able to exclude any posts with a particular tag from the loop. For instance, I am going to be able to apply a tag such as 'limit-ip' to a post and in the code I am going to restrict viewing of those posts to only a select group of ip addresses. Ultimately, this could be used for any number of reasons, but I just can't get it to work! I cannot find much documentation on 'tag__not_in' setting, but it would seem to do what if I want if only I could get it to work. Here is my code on the home page:
<?php $my_query = new WP_Query(array('tag__not_in'=>array('limitip'),'category_name'=>'features','showposts'=>1));
while ($my_query->have_posts()) : $my_query->the_post();
$do_not_duplicate = $post->ID;?>
<div id="post-<?php the_ID(); ?>">

<a href="<?php the_permalink() ?>" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent Link to <?php the_title_attribute(); ?>"><?php the_title(); ?>

<?php the_content('Read the rest of this entry »'); ?>

<?php endwhile; ?>
Am I just going about this the wrong way or is there a simpler way to achieve this result? Thanks in advance for any help you can give!

You've done it now. I am now the best "Creamed Chipped Beef" maker on "The Longmeadow Farm". So, thank goodness I have now memorized this recipe. And what a recipe it 'tis. Very smooth and oh so good, even to the very last drop. I followed this exactly, and enjoyed putting the sherry in.... I have used that in the sauce, however, this is the little tang that has been missing from my previously made "gravy" for chipped beef. This deserves 10 stars..will be making this from now on. I also rinsed my chipped beef prior to putting in the gravy, and it really helped cut back on the salt taste. Thanks, Bliss! Made for the heck of it, April 2010
Sooo good that dried beef is now in our California earthquake kit! I used smoked paprika. This is very salty and we like it that way. You can soak the chopped up beef in hot water for a few minutes and then drain it if you need/want it to be less salty. Leap into adventure and use the dry sherry. It is fabulous and you can use the rest in Chinese food. The only drawback is the dog, who falls over and acts like he will expire if he can't lick the plate. Thanks, Bliss!
Made this for a family brunch and it was a Big Hit! My Bro-in Law eats as a hobby and called it "hands down, the best he ever had." The whole clan liked the added kick compared to more traditional recipes. Easy to adjust spice level to match taste buds. This will be THE only creamed chipped beef recipe I use!
Best, most flavorful creamed chipped beef I have ever made or eaten! I used chardonnay in place of sherry. Delicious! Doubled the recipe, except the onions. Phenomenal!
I had been craving this for some time but did not have the dried beef on hand. I couldn't take it any longer. Forged ahead and made it with deli corned beef, used a tblsp of white wine (no sherry). This stuff is creamy and has the sparks that makes it not your ordinary SOS. Made it again and added a little corn and peas just for fun. Again, wow I liked it! Thanks for sharing will make a special effort to try with the chipped beef for sure!
Fantastic! Used sliced, smoked cured beef (a treat in itself). It isn't quite as salty as chipped beef, so we did add salt and pepper at the dinner table. Used cream sherry (didn't have dry) and served over biscuits (got them in frozen food section in a "peel off plastic top container.) Perfect with your recipe! Thanks, Bliss, for posting! I cannot wait to serve your wonderful recipe to company.
I loved this as a kid and have been thinking about it recently. Instead of using my Mom's recipe -- just white sauce with the chipped beef tossed in, I tried this and it is ever so much bettr. I did rinse the beef to cut the salt. Great little old fashioned dish.
Excellent! The Tobasco Sauce added that extra zing to keep our tastebuds craving more. Thanks for the wonderful recipe - this is a keeper!
My husband recently mentioned a childhood (and military mess hall) memory of creamed chipped beef on toast, and asked me to find a recipe for it. I made this today, cutting in half, but otherwise following the recipe exactly, and he said it was much better than he's ever had, and asked me to save the recipe. That certainly rates a high five in my book. Thanks for sharing.
This was awsomely delicious. I searved it over biscuts. My husband and children loved it. The sherry was an excellent touch. I will make this again.

I've recently upgraded my blog to WordPress 2.1. I also upgraded Akismet to version 2.0. Both pieces of software have worked fine for some days, but I've just noticed a very upsetting behaviour in the backend: when I click on "Comments" option in order to manage comments, I get a blank page with a number (54, for example).
This behaviour also happened with WordPress previous versions, but it only involved the Akismet tab. In WordPress 2.1, Akismet tab is under the Comments management option. So, with the blank page I can't manage spam, nor approved comments.
On the other hand, I can see recent comments in the main Dashboard page.
Any idea?

To the Editor: As in 1992 when Mayes et al1 urged against a rush to judgment of the effects
of prenatal cocaine exposure, the review by Dr Frank and colleagues2 provided a rational voice in an irrational environment.
While we agree with many of the conclusions, the lay community has consistently
underestimated the risk of prenatal exposure to cocaine. In our own community,
this review has been interpreted to mean that there are no long-term effects
of prenatal cocaine exposure. Clearly, the effects on the fetuses, newborns,
and infants, including dose-response relations, are evident. Although disregarding
these risks was not the intent of this review, it may well be a consequence.

F50 - Apr 25, 2011
Player: Emily (Tennessee)
Theses shinguards are shape like the less expensive f50s.The fit the same and are tougher and lighter weight. I tried nikes and the don't fit as well. I assume all the problems people are having are because they bought the wrong size.

Not recommended - Mar 12, 2011
Player: Todd (South Carolina)
I've been wearing the adizero carbon fibers for about two months now. Every single time I've put them on, they have completely destroyed my shins and especially the tendons in the lower shin that provide for extension of the foot and ankle movement. After practices, I can barely walk to my car. This may be because I have rather thin legs, but I strongly doubt that. On the bright side, these guards have a large surface area, are very light and extremely strong, though I'm rather disappointed that the guards do more damage than if I didn't wear guards period. They are also much too expensive for all the miserable pain they put me through. I myself am going to try the mercurial blade carbon fiber guards next, which are only about ten dollars more expensive, and I have read only great reviews from other users. All in all, from an objective and realistic perspective, I would not recommend these guards for any player who wants to keep their shins intact and safe from injury.

good guards on sale - Jan 17, 2011
Player: Ray (Maine)
I got these on sale for $66 dollars and that is a great price considering they were $150 before. They shinguards themselves are great, the techfit sleeve does its job and is comfortable. Plus carbon fiber things are nice and shiny and almost indestructable. The only downside was at the beginning of usage the bottom scraped against my angle. These would have been four stars if the price wasnot so sweet. And I know your thinking that this still seems quite a bit for a shinguard. but they are great and totally worth every penny. They are so light you can barely feel them on your shins. They protect well also. I recommend these for flashy players who rely on lightweight equipment to light up the scoreboard.

Ultimate Protection - Dec 30, 2010
Player: Alex G. (McAllen, Tx)
This is an extremely light shinguard even with the insert on. The level of protection both in length and width is perfect in covering a large part of the shin. They are worth the money in protection, on my first wear I took a shot from from someone literally a foot taller than me I'm 5'6" about 150lbs and the shock dispersal was impressive, I didn't feel it at all. I have only found 2 drawbacks to this guard. First the compression sleeve is excellent at the compression and keeping them in place, however they tend to tear very easily. I'm an aggressive player that slide tackles a lot, I suppose its better suited to poacher and speed style players. The second is the shape is odd and the break in period is very long, it tends to dig in to the bottom of your shin. All in all its excellent for protection if you're willing to suffer a bit for the benefits. Impossible is nothing.

It hurts more than it protects - Sep 30, 2010
Player: Richard Gu (CA USA)
I have bought a pair of this shinguard, but returned it right away after trying it on. This is my third type of carbon fiber shinguard. It is about the same weight as Nike Mercurial Blade and Diadora Gamma Carbonio. However the foam padding is shaped with sharp edges, and just cut into your shin by putting it on. I have tried different sizes just to make sure it is correct fit, but all sizes feel the same. Nike Blade has a similar foam padding, but the padding has rounded edge, so it does not hurt your shin. It can be a nice shinguard if you can stand the couple weeks of breaking in, but Nike Blade feels way more comfortable than the adiZero Carbon :

great shin guard - Aug 22, 2010
Player: Ian (Orange Beach, AL USA)
This is a great shinguard, they are pricey but stilll they are worth the price they are comfortable and you can realy feel how much lighter they are than other shinguards. What i was realy impressed with was the shinguard sleeve, it doesnt look like much but it realy is comfortable, i would recomend this shinguard to anybody.
