About the Author
Sandor Ellix Katz is a self-taught fermentation experimentalist. He wrote Wild Fermentation: The Flavor, Nutrition, and Craft of Live-Culture Foods--which Newsweek called "the fermenting bible"--in order to share the fermentation wisdom he had learned, and demystify home fermentation. Since the book's publication in 2003, Katz has taught hundreds of fermentation workshops across North America and beyond, and authored The Art of Fermentation (2011) and the instructional DVD Fermentation Workshop with Sandor Ellix Katz (2010). A native of New York City, he now gardens, saves seeds, tends goats and chickens, and produces biodiesel from used fry oil in an off-the-grid community in the hills of Tennessee.

Zach Galifianakis Likes Living in Brooklyn Because He Doesn't Have to Bathe
Funny, that's why we like having him live in Brooklyn, too.
Chelsea-based porn star Holly Sampson is "not denying that she bedded Tiger Woods," claiming she last canoodled with him a month ago at Butter. Tiger, meanwhile, issued a thank-you note to his fans. Lindsay Lohan posed nude in a ménage a trois photo shoot at the Chateau Marmont for a scandalous spread in the Muse magazine. Photographer Yu Tsai describes Lilo in the Kate Moss and Johnny Depp–inspired shoot: "When you see her nipple, it just happened in the moment ... Lindsay is incredibly focused where it comes to her career and fashion is her passion. It's raw, it's exposed, this is her at her best." Eva Mendes has a thing for Kate Winslet. Courtney Love claims that Britney Spears's father molested her as a child, but Spears's rep denies it. Someone stole $583,000 worth of Victoria Beckham's dresses from a van en route to Heathrow. And at L.A.'s Up in the Air premiere, Zach Galifianakis says he likes his Brooklyn home because "in the neighborhood I live in, I don't have to bathe. And that's nice."
Robert De Niro and Bruce Springsteen received Kennedy Center honors last night for their contributions to U.S. culture and the arts. De Niro also lamented New York's loss of Miramax at the Tribeca Film Institute's benefit event, while Drew Barrymore referred to him as 'Daddy D.' Susan Boyle is slated to sing at the White House for Michelle Obama's 46th birthday on January 17. Anne Hathaway and her boyfriend, actor Adam Shulman, watched Cate Blanchett in BAM's A Streetcar Named Desire. Robin Williams celebrated the last New York performance on his "Weapons of Self Destruction" tour with toasts from Salman Rushdie, Carrie Fisher, John Stamos, and Robert De Niro at Gabriel's. Alexa Ray Joel was released from St. Vincent's hospital after her suicide attempt on Saturday. And some New York parents rented Yankee Stadium for their son's bar mitzvah.
Jeremy Piven was treated to a lap dance at West Hollywood club Teddy's while Eva Longoria-Parker partied nearby. Amy Adams and her fiancé have a baby on the way. Tinsley Mortimer's father, George, was thrown out of Michael Fredo's jazz show at the Plaza when he drunkenly stumbled onstage, stole the mike, and started singing "New York, New York" in front of Martha Stewart, Woody Allen, and Courtney Love. Oliver Stone and Joy Behar dined at A Voce. John McEnroe and Patty Smyth passed around what seemed to be a joint during a discussion on marijuana reform during Vito Schnabel's dinner at the Miami W. And two non-Pratt stars of I'm a Celebrity ... Get Me Out of Here have been charged with animal cruelty for killing and cooking a rat.

The motherboard is still in good condition and can be used for small capacitors and such and the DVD drive (Hitachi 59DJ) is preflashed with iXtreme 1.4. The GPU and CPU have already had Artic Silver 5 applied to it and the X-Clamp fix was applied, so if you want to get those screws or the heatsinks you can do that as well.
Please send me PM's or respond in this thread, thanks for looking!

Hi there,
Your plugin is really amazing, i like it very much. I was only wondering if it would be possible to only show 1 submenu from a menu item.
In my example i would like my client to manage the navigation menu's himself. Therefore he should get access to the appearance menu. But now this isn't possible because there is the 'themes' submenu, which i don't want him to see.
Is there a solution for this problem? I think many people really like this plugin but also want their users to edit the menu's themselves. I think this is a crucial part when managing a site.
Hope to here your thoughts on this (and hopefully a solution)!

The first, an adult female, was found on Sunday by the
Department of Conservation at Blueskin Bay estuary after Doc
was alerted by the public.
A newborn calf was discovered on Monday in the same area.
The second, another adult female, was found on Tuesday
afternoon at Blueskin Bay.
Doc biodiversity programme manager David Agnew said until
necropsies (animal autopsy) had been done by Massey
University's wildlife centre, there was no way of knowing if
the deaths were something to be concerned about.
''At this stage it could be coincidence. Three in a week,
though, is far too many.''
One of the females was probably the mother of the dead calf
and possibly died during the birth process, he said.
It was hoped the necropsies would identify cause of death and
DNA testing could show which was the calf's mother.
The quick thinking of the public in reporting the dolphins to
Doc meant the department had the best chance to discover the
cause of death, as the bodies were not decomposed.
Hector's dolphins were found off the coast of Otago mostly
from Taiaroa Head to Karitane and periodically washed ashore.

Better late than never.
The New York Times's 1853 story on the subject of this year's Best Picture Oscar winner, 12 Years a Slave, was all over the Internet this week. And a reader quickly noted that the Times spelled Solomon Northup's name incorrectly. Twice.
So the paper printed a correction, more than 160 years later.
.@Loukas_RS Hah. The irony, of course, is that I'm a terrible speller and proofreader.

Is there a way to have the server refresh upon save, like on Tomcat? Thanks.

'Agent Gates' a subversive treat for 'Downton Abbey' lovers
I'm not a "Downton Abbey" devotee, but I still laughed many times while reading "Agent Gates and the Secret Adventures of Devonton Abbey," a graphic-novel parody by writer Camaren Subhiyah and illustrator Kyle Hilton.
In this comic parody, Jack Gates (the counterpart to John Bates in the real series) is a perfectly suitable valet, but he's also a brilliant, daring, butt-kicking secret agent. That leg that was crippled in the Boer War? After he disables a deadly German agent with a roundhouse kick, Gates explains: »Read Full Blog Post

MAM founding works
Before the Calatrava, before the Kahler, before the War Memorial Center, there was the Layton Art Gallery. And without Frederick Layton and the gallery, we wouldn't have the others. The Milwaukee Art Museum, 700 N. Art Museum Drive, which is rooted by the Layton collection, is paying tribute to the man and his gallery with a 125th anniversary exhibition. In the Gallery 10 and the Decorative Arts Gallery, MAM will display the works upon which the museum was founded. And the Baumgartner Galleria will display items that illustrate the history of MAM. Sunday at 2 p.m. in the Lubar Auditorium, guest lecturer Giles Waterfield will discuss "The Role of Private Patrons" in Layton's development of his collection. The lecture is free with general admission. »Read Full Article

Love brings hope to Next Act Theatre's 'Grace'
When the lights come up on Craig Wright's "Grace" - now at Next Act Theatre, under David Cecsarini's direction - a man is holding a gun to his head, having just murdered the woman and man sprawled nearby. We can guess what happened with this love triangle. But how? And why?
With the whodunit out of the way, "Grace" tries to answer those questions by taking us back three months and starting over. During the ensuing two hours, we'll move forward in time toward that climactic scene with which the play began. »Read Full Article

|Memorable moment
Mortimus was a renegade Time Lord who had been a friend of the Doctor's on Gallifrey, until he fled Gallifrey to meddle in history under the alias of "The Monk", (TV: The Time Meddler) though it was mostly the Doctor who addressed him as such. (AUDIO: The Secret History)
Biography Edit
Early life Edit
While he still lived on Gallifrey, Mortimus attended the Time Lord Academy with the Doctor and became a part of the Deca. (PROSE: Divided Loyalties) He became an initiate of one of the colleges of scholars in the Capitol, trusted with keeping secrets. (PROSE: No Future)
He worked for the Celestial Intervention Agency. (PROSE: The Quantum Archangel) During this period, the Monk was responsible for the Legions' imprisonment. (PROSE: The Crystal Bucephalus) The Master recalled that the Monk "crossed and double-crossed" the CIA. (PROSE: The Quantum Archangel)
Mortimus became an agent provocateur for the High Council. It was during this employment that the Monk first found his interest in intervening in history. Mortimus eventually became aware of other worlds where everything he believed in was meaningless, so he turned to politics, attempting to "create a purpose out of nothing". Finding politics to be full of betrayal, he retreated into hedonism, out of a desire for harmless fun.
Through "some sort of controversy", the High Council betrayed Mortimus, and he began to meddle with history as a hobby. (PROSE: No Future)
As a renegade Edit
After the Doctor left Gallifrey, the Monk also decided to escape and became a renegade as well, attempting to interfere in history for amusement. (TV: The Time Meddler) After he left Gallifrey, Irving Braxiatel heard that Mortimus had headed in the direction of Earth. (PROSE: The Empire of Glass) The Monk worked as an advisor to both the Moroks and Yartek, leader of the Voord. (PROSE: No Future)
The Monk lent mechanical assistance to the builders of Stonehenge by providing anti-gravity lifts; according to his logbook he gave Leonardo da Vinci tips on aircraft design, and he placed £200 in a London bank in 1968 and then travelled forward two hundred years to pick up a fortune in compound interest.
The Monk was in 1066 Northumbria trying to prevent the Normans from winning the Battle of Hastings as part of a plan to guide England into an age of technological prosperity when the First Doctor encountered him. After the Monk's plans were thwarted, the Doctor sabotaged the dimensional control of his TARDIS, making it the same size inside as outside. With his TARDIS interior reduced to dollhouse proportions, the Monk seemed stranded in one time and place. (TV: The Time Meddler)
The Monk ran into the Doctor again on the volcanic planet Tigus. The Monk sabotaged the lock on the Doctor's TARDIS, though that did not stop him from getting inside. The Doctor stole the Monk's direction controls to use in his effort to stop the Daleks.
The Monk's TARDIS landed in ancient Egypt. Knowing of the Daleks, the Monk decided to help them regain the taranium core to avoid being exterminated himself, while trying unsuccessfully to convince the Doctor and his companions of his honourable nature. The Doctor overpowered the Monk and placed him in a sarcophagus, where he was found by Steven Taylor and Sara Kingdom. He caused them to be captured by the Daleks, but was also held by them. The Doctor tinkered with the chameleon circuit of the Monk's TARDIS, making it take various shapes, finally that of a police box. The Doctor was forced to give the taranium to Mavic Chen, enabling his companions and the Monk to escape the Daleks. The Monk entered his TARDIS before the Daleks could recapture him. However the Doctor had stolen its partially compatible directional unit, ultimately leaving the Monk stranded on an ice planet. (TV: The Daleks' Master Plan)
Using an perception-altering ring to impersonate a Chapter 9 constable called Pavo, the Monk helped the Seeth with an invasion, but the Second Doctor helped the real Pavo defeat him. (AUDIO: The Black Hole)
Mortimus allied himself with the Ice Warriors and battled the Fifth Doctor in a complex scheme involving alternative Earths and a giant Sonic weapon. (COMIC: 4-Dimensional Vistas)
Some time in the 21st century, the Monk tried to rig elections in what may have been the United States to stop President Sinatra from winning a third term of office. As he began this mission, he landed his TARDIS on a busy freeway. The Sleeze Brothers, El Ape and Deadbeat, collided with it, damaging their vehicle. At the same time, the companion-less Seventh Doctor landed his TARDIS in the same area.
Besieged by angry brothers and an irate Doctor, the Monk slipped back into his TARDIS and took off. The Brothers hijacked the Doctor's TARDIS at gunpoint and ordered him to follow the Monk's TARDIS through time. A chase ensued, and the two TARDISes flitted to several famous mysteries in Earth's history. Finally, the Doctor and the Sleeze Brothers made the Monk's TARDIS implode, apparently causing the creation of the Bermuda Triangle. (COMIC: Follow That TARDIS!) The Monk regenerated, as the Seventh Doctor did not recognise him when they next met. (PROSE: No Future)
Death's Champion Edit
Now using his real name, the Monk made himself a champion to a the Eternal Death. Capturing the Chronovore Artemis, (PROSE: No Future) Mortimus used her to give Morka the power to kill the Third Doctor, (PROSE: Blood Heat) resurrect the Garvond, (PROSE: The Dimension Riders) empower Huitzilin, (PROSE: The Left-Handed Hummingbird) and restore the Land of Fiction. (PROSE: Conundrum) Mortimus then aided the Vardans' scheme to avenge themselves on the Doctor and the Sontarans by conquering Earth, a planet of continued strategic value to the Sontarans and of importance to the Doctor. His plan was undone thanks to the Doctor's companion Ace, who pretended to side with him until she could free Artemis. The vengeful Artemis subsequently took Mortimus away to make him pay for her imprisonment. (PROSE: No Future)
Mortimus took Antonio Salieri back in time to kill Mozart when he was still a child, intending to cause damage to the Web of Time. Mortimus left before the murder took place and Salieri was stopped by the Seventh Doctor and the tramp. Mozart escaped unharmed. (PROSE: The Tramp's Story)
Travels with Lucie Miller Edit
Placing a wanted ad for a willing fellow traveller, the Monk chose Lucie Miller as his new companion. Together they met Caligula and the Sensorites, and watched a final of Thordon's Got Talent, before crash-landing in medieval Ireland due to the Monk's malfunctioning "directional whatsit". The pair sought shelter in the Abbey of Kells until the Monk could finish repairs. (AUDIO: The Resurrection of Mars)
In 1006 Ireland, the Monk sought an artefact known as the Book of Kells, hoping to use it as a replacement part for his TARDIS. During this time, he once again encountered the Eighth Doctor after grounding his TARDIS with a Time Scoop. (AUDIO: The Book of Kells)
After escaping Kells, Lucie and the Monk went to the planet Questus, where the Monk had travelled back in time to kill the parents of a dictator in an avalanche to prevent the dictator's birth. At this point, after being dragged out of the avalanche, she tired of the Monk's meddling and began to consider his actions amoral, to the point of calling him a murderer. After this, the Monk "dumped" her on Deimos Moonbase in the 23rd century, deliberately placing her there in an attempt to grab the Doctor's attention.
Reawakening the Ice Warriors centuries before they were meant to in order to give them the opportunity to terraform Mars back to how it was prior to their hibernation, the Monk planned to allow them to kill thousands of human colonists in the 23rd century, rather than billions on Halcyon a thousand years later. Realising he had been unsuccessful in distracting the Doctor, the Monk created an artificial gravity eddy to forcibly bring the Doctor back to Deimos. The Monk took the Doctor's companion, Tamsin Drew, to the aftermath of the Ice Warriors' attack on Halcyon around the 33rd century, convincing her that the Doctor was responsible for the billions of deaths there, and subsequently showing her him apparently collaborating with the Ice Warriors in killing 600 people on a passenger rocket.
Following the conclusion of the crisis, Tamsin told the Doctor that she had "had enough" of what she considered only looking out for his friends and the Web of Time, and was unable to forgive him for condemning the people of Halcyon to their fate, choosing to leave with the Monk. The duo set off to find "some old friends who also [had] a score to settle with the Doctor" to "combine their talents". (AUDIO: The Resurrection of Mars)
Helping the Daleks Edit
The Monk helped the Daleks invade Earth as they had in the 22nd century. In exchange for reviving the Dalek Time Controller, the Daleks promised him anything he desired. He used a Dalek virus from the far future and gave Tamsin the job of stealing human artefacts from museums for his personal collection. (AUDIO: Lucie Miller) After the Daleks destroyed the collection in an attempt to kill the Doctor, and then coldly exterminated Tamsin, the Monk was devastated that he had allowed someone he had feelings for to die. Wishing not to cause any more death, he decided to help the Doctor. He saved Susan Campbell and him from the bomb that destroyed the Daleks. He was then ordered to leave the Doctor's sight after the Doctor found out that he had deployed the virus on Earth. (AUDIO: To the Death)
Revenge on the Doctor Edit
The Monk was deeply affected by the death of Tamsin Drew. In his despair, he formulated a plan to remove the Doctor from history so that Tamsin's death would never come to pass. He located Sophia, a time-sensitive Human/Hetrodon hybrid in ancient Greece and used her abilities to create a hole in space-time. This the Monk planned to use to take the Doctor's place in history. (AUDIO: The Secret History) His early experiments resulted in the Seventh Doctor taking the place of the Third Doctor on Delphin Isle, (AUDIO: The Defectors) and the Sixth Doctor taking the place of the Second Doctor in a Cyber-Tomb in the Kuiper Belt. (AUDIO: Last of the Cybermen) Finally, the Monk lured the Fifth Doctor to Constantinople in the year 540 in the place of the First Doctor, where he successfully replaced the Doctor's timeline with his own. However, Sophia was able to sense the distortion to history, and used her abilities to bring the Doctor back into existence. The Doctor brought a group of Antoene warriors to Earth in order to blackmail the Monk into restoring the Doctor's timeline. The Monk obliged, before fleeing once again. (AUDIO: The Secret History)
Alternative timeline Edit
In an alternative timeline, the Monk cooperated alongside the Master, the Rani and Drax to try to destroy the world using a DNA recombinator, turning the human race into a gestalt consciousness which could be used as a weapon to conquer the universe.
In another alternative timeline he worked as an elite executive for the CIA, for whom he conducted an undercover mission for the Time Lord behind Enemy lines. (PROSE: The Quantum Archangel)
Personality Edit
The Monk was amoral and enjoyed meddling actively with history to his own selfish ends. (TV: The Time Meddler)
Lucie Miller called the Monk a "murdering lunatic" and a "homicidal bloomin' maniac", while the Eighth Doctor unfavourably compared him to his seventh incarnation's habit of being "a man with the master plan" working for the "greater good" under the belief of the ends justifying the means. (AUDIO: The Resurrection of Mars)
Behind the scenes Edit
- The Monk has the distinction of being the first member of the Doctor's then unnamed race, besides the Doctor himself and Susan, to appear in the series. The name Time Lord would not be used until The War Games.
- For some time there was speculation that the Monk was actually an earlier incarnation of the Master or the War Chief, who appeared in The War Games. This is stated as fact in The Doctor Who Role Playing Game. However, this theory has been contradicted by the Monk's appearances in novels and comics.
- The Monk was almost never actually referred to as "the Time Meddler" or "the Meddling Monk" by himself or others, both of these "names" being taken from the titles of the overall serial and the second episode. However, the Doctor comes close to giving the character these names within the serial, calling him "a time meddler" and "that meddling monk", and later referring to "the Meddling Monk" in the novelisation of Shada, but more as a general epithet than name. The title "the Monk" derives more from Steven and Vicki's attempt to call him something, at least within the confines of The Time Meddler. By the events of the audio story The Book of Kells, the Monk is shown to have appropriated the title, using the name "Abbot Thelonius" as a sly reference to jazz great Thelonius Monk through wordplay reminiscent of the Master's. However, in The Secret History, the Monk remarks that the Doctor is the only person who ever calls him "the Monk".

My bicycle is our second car. I love to bicycle in all weather, for all distances, and on all routes. Bicycling has brought so much joy to my life, and I want to share it with anyone who is interested. I will use my soapbox to tell you about the joys, the freedom, the benefits, and, yes, the challenges of bicycling and walking for transportation.
A few weeks ago my daughter and I were on our bikes during the height of Christmas shopping season. I was dismayed to see traffic backed up a couple blocks on a road that ordinarily has light traffic. I hopped over to the sidewalk.
I preach "Don't bike on the sidewalk" every chance I get. Sidewalks are dangerous places for bicycles. Bike-car collisions occur at a higher rate to bicyclists riding on sidewalks than to bicyclists riding on roads. This surprises most people, because cars don't drive on sidewalks, except in rare circumstances typically involving alcohol. But then I ask, "Have you ever had a near miss by a car backing out of a garage?" (One young man answered, "She didn't miss.") Sidewalks cross driveways, parking lot entrances, alleys, and streets. Every crossing is a potential for collision, and as motorists we don't watch for bicyclists on sidewalks.
Streets also intersect with driveways, parking lot entrances, alleys, and other streets, but motorists do watch for traffic coming down a street.
I did not want to wait for 10 or 15 minutes in line that day so I hopped over to the sidewalk. I slowed down and watched carefully for cars entering or exiting as we passed one parking lot entrance and then another. There were no pedestrians on this sidewalk, or I would have biked very slow, at pedestrian speed.
When we got to the stop sign, I said, "You're probably shocked that I bicycled on the sidewalk."
My daughter replied, "Did you step off your high horse, or were you pushed?"
Apparently she has heard me preach vehemently against biking on sidewalks a few times.
Don't bike on sidewalks. But if you choose to, slow down and watch those driveways and entrances. Don't forget to check for cars coming up behind you that might be turning into the parking lot entrance that you are passing.
A few days ago we were discussing the best route to one of her destinations in Rolla. She admitted that she had started bicycling on the sidewalk. Bishop St., or Hwy 63, is a difficult street in Rolla. Avoiding it requires studying a map and having excellent spatial memory. Alternate, residential routes don't all have a stoplight at King's Highway, another difficult street. The logistics of route-finding were so complex that she gave up and started biking on the sidewalk.
I don't blame her. "Just remember to watch the driveways and parking lot entrances," I told her.

Gavin Rossdale in Double Denim – DSquared & Chambray
Gavin Rossdale wore his DSquared jeans again with a light blue Chambray shirt as he was out and about in New York City yesterday (3). He pulls of this double denim look really well. I am loving how Chambray is getting popular, it seems like a great alternative to light denim for the really warm weather. Do you own anything Chambray? I'm thinking I'm going to have to buy a shirt or a pair of shorts to see what it's like! You can buy these jeans here at Luisaviaroma.

Miley Cyrus in Siwy
Miley Cyrus was posing for the camera as she left the Universal Studios Hollywood in Los Angeles, California while wearing a pair of Siwy Camilla cut off shorts in Jet. I think her outfit looks so casual and boho chic, the aviators really make it work. I think Siwy shorts have to be the most popular choice for shorts among the celebs, I can't say I blame them, they are wonderful! It's nice to see Miley out of her Miley & Max collaboration shorts too, even though they are cute! Buy these shorts at Boutique to You for only $151.
Cheryl Cole in Helmut Lang
I love Cheryl Cole's outfits! It's nice to see her looking happy again after everything she has been through. Cheryl was wearing a pair of Helmut Lang Mid Rise Jersey Panel Legging Jeans as she arrived at Heathrow airport, London, England after flying in from Dublin. I've never owned anything by Helmut Lang before but after seeing these leggings I really want a pair! Buy these denim leggings at Net-A-Porter.
Congrats to Cheryl for being voted FHM's sexiest woman out of the worlds 100!

Kate Bosworth in Denim Bustier
I love Kate Bosworth's look here. She looks so fresh for spring by pairing a floral skirt with a snug fit denim bustier style top. I think this is such a versatile piece, has anyone seen anything like it before?

My beloved Bisou (certified therapy dog) and I met through a friend who was helping me during a dark period of loss and depression in my life. I am a mental health/addictions professional and soon recognized his talents and skills in reaching out to those suffering from disorders of emotion and spirit. We pursued certification at an early age through recommendation of a friend and associate and soon Bisou became a fixture at my place of employment. He and I so enjoyed the service provided and the support and encouragement offered by Share-A-Pet that my acceptance of the offer to be more involved in the organization was a no brainer. In the years that I have been affiliated with the organization I have met countless numbers of dedicated furry angels and their human partners who share a passion and compassion for bringing the warmth and unconditional love of a dog into the lives of others. It is indeed a privilege to endorse them to you for consideration

Earlier this month, the Federal Communications Commission hit AT&T with a $100 million fine, accusing the company of throttling speeds for customers who thought they had unlimited data plans.
According the FCC, "millions of AT&T customers were affected. The customers who were subject to speed reductions were slowed for an average of 12 days per billing cycle, significantly impeding their ability to use common data applications such as GPS mapping or streaming video."
In the complaint, the FCC notes that AT&T has been "using the misleading and inaccurate term "unlimited" to label a data plan that was in fact subject to prolonged speed reductions after a customer used a set amount of data," as well as "failing to disclose the express speed reductions that it applied to "unlimited" data plan customers once they hit a specified data threshold." Last year, the Federal Trade Commission also filed a complaint against AT&T, accusing the company of misleading smartphone customers with unlimited data plans and slowing down their data speeds by as much a 90 percent.
Since the FCC's announcement, AT&T customers have taken their outrage to Twitter, posting screenshots of text messages they are now receiving from the company stating they are close to exceeding their allotted five gigabyte threshold. Once that has been exceeded they "may experience reduced data speeds at times and in areas that are experiencing network congestion."
One AT&T customer who posted a screenshot to Twitter is Bobby Hoyt. Hoyt also posted on his blog about the issue and told me,
I recently renewed a 2 year contract with AT&T and now, a week later, I received this data throttling text. Unlimited data is a huge reason I've stayed with AT&T so long, but 5GB is clearly a limit. This will be my last contract with AT&T after being with them for over 10 years. You don't reward customer loyalty with poor service and poor product quality.
Arghh @ATT I paid for unlimited!!!!! pic.twitter.com/WaZqqfcaqd— Millennial Money Man (@GenYMoneyMan) June 27, 2015
In 2007, AT&T began offering unlimited data plans for users, but in 2011, the company started capping data speeds for unlimited customers after certain data thresholds were eclipsed. Not surprisingly, since AT&T made this change in 2011, the FCC has received thousands of complaints from AT&T customers. A quick search for "AT&T" at ConsumerAffairs.com also brings up thousands of complaints about the company.

Earlier this week, President Obama announced a proposal for a new Student Aid Bill of Rights. The plan is aimed at making the process of managing and repaying student loans easier for borrowers.
The president's plan calls for implementing a new complaint forum for student borrowers, a centralized website to track student loans, stricter laws for debt collectors, and possibly even bankruptcy for student loans. President Obama spoke about his plan at Georgia Tech University and told the crowd,
We're going to require that the businesses that service your loans provide clear information about how much you owe, what your options are for repaying it, and if you're falling behind, help you get back in good standing with reasonable fees on a reasonable timeline.
But as Yahoo Finance's Mandi Woodruff writes, this does not solve the issue of student loans. As Woodruff notes, the plan "is not addressing the core issue, which is that they had to take out nearly 30 grand worth of debt in the first place." And Woodruff is absolutely right. Tuition has risen 12-fold over the past decade, leading to more students and families borrowing more than ever.
Though Obama's proposal does not fix the student loan issue, it's certainly a step in the right direction. Hopefully, it does not end...

Each year, more than two million Americans sustain a traumatic brain injury. This month is National Brain Injury Awareness Month, which shines a light on those who have sustained brain injuries, as well as those working to prevent and treat brain injuries.
Earlier this week, New York Giants punter Steve Weatherford and former NFL wide receiver Sidney Rice announced they will be donating their brains to science. Both Weatherford and Rice have suffered multiple concussions during their professional careers. Weatherford estimated that he suffered at least two concussions, while Rice, estimated that he has suffered at least 15 concussions during his career. When asked about his decision to retire, Rice told Reuters: "It was more about being able to function later on down the road, to live a healthy lifestyle. You know, be able to play with my kids."
The NFL said concussions dropped from 148 incidents in 2013 to 111 incidents in 2014. Though this is the case, brain injuries suffered when playing the sport remain a serious concern. NFL players who have sustained concussions have experienced memory loss, depression, chronic traumatic encephalopathy (CTE), and some have even committed suicide. Last September, PBS reported that 76 of the 79 former players examined suffered from degenerative brain disease.
Last month it was announced that a settlement worth about $1 billion was close to being finalized which would compensate players for head injuries suffered during their careers. More than 4,500 former players had sued the NFL, accusing the league of hiding the dangers of traumatic head injuries. The Silk visualization below maps the total number of games missed due to concussions/brain injuries by team from 2012 through 2014.

This year 184 million Americans will watch the Super Bowl and over 40 million will host a Super Bowl party. Below are ten interesting facts, not related to deflate-gate.
$500,000 Fine
That's the amount of money Seahawks running back, Marshawn Lynch would have been fined if he did not speak with the media leading up to the Super Bowl.
395,000 Halftime Tweets
For Twitter, halftime is king. According to Twitter, last year over 100,000 Tweets were sent at kickoff and 125,000 at the end of the game. However, halftime trumped both, with almost 400,000 Tweets.
325 Million Gallons of Beer
More than 325 million gallons of beer will be guzzled during this year's Super Bowl, and as Forbes notes, that's more than a gallon of beer for each person in the United States. This is also enough beer to fill an Olympic-sized swimming pool.
13.5 Million Puppy Bowl Viewers
Last year, a record 13.5 million watched Animal Planet's Puppy Bowl instead of the Super Bowl. This year, don't be surprised if that record is broken once again.
48 Million Will Order Takeout
To put this number in perspective, more Americans will order takeout than the entire population of Canada.
12.5 Million Pizzas
More pizzas are sold on Super Bowl Sunday than any other day of the year. New Year's Eve, Halloween, the night before Thanksgiving, & New Year's Day round out the top five. With 12.5 million pizzas expected to be ordered this year, corrugated box makers are being pushed to the limit. Pizza Hut alone, expects to deliver two million pizzas on Super Bowl Sunday. Viewers will also consume more than 1.25 billion chicken wings and 11.2 million pounds of chips, but vegetables will actually be the most consumed food on Super Bowl Sunday.
10.8% Surge in Porn Consumption
Last year, following the Bronco's agonizing defeat, porn viewership in Denver surged by 10.8%. Similarly, Patriots fans also turned to porn in increased numbers after their Super Bowl loss in 2012.
12,000 Joints
Junk food isn't the only thing people will be consuming on Sunday. A Seattle marijuana retailer is hurying to roll 12,000 joints in preparation for Super Bowl Sunday.
15% more likely to get a DWI
Unfortunately, it's not surprising that drunk driving arrests increase on Super Bowl Sunday. According to KIMT News, people are 15% more likely to get a DWI on Super Bowl Sunday than all other Sundays combined.
Glendale Lost $2 Million
Most people think that Super Bowl host cities rake in the cash, however that's not necessarily the case. In 2008, when the city of Glendale last hosted the Super Bowl, the city lost $2 million. This year, the Glendale mayor expects to lose money once again.

The U.S. government is urging Americans not to travel to Yemen and said those already there should consider leaving.In a travel warning issued Sunday, the State Department said the threat level in Yemen is "extremely high" due to terrorist activities and civil unrest.The department said it has authorized the voluntary departure of family members of U.S. Embassy staff and non-essential personnel. It said that in the event of a crisis, evacuation options would be extremely limited.Yemen has faced weeks of demonstrations by anti-government protesters calling for President Ali Abdullah Saleh to leave office. Clashes between government forces and opposition activists have turned deadly.Terrorist organizations, including the Yemen-based al-Qaida in the Arabian Peninsula, are also active in the country.

Hi !
I've got a question about wp_nav. Now I've got 2 menus in my theme. And i made them with wp_nav and that works well.
But I also want support for WP2 versions. But how can I give support to 2 navigation structures in WP2 as a fallback? Because wp-list-pages throws all navigation items in the output. And I don't want to edit the code to set hardcoded page-id's but it must be editable in the backend.
Anyone that can help me out?

APOPKA, Fla. (AP) - A man is behind bars after authorities say he threatened students at a Central Florida middle school.
Apopka Police say 36-year-old Jeramy W. Martin drove his pickup onto Wolf Lake Middle School Thursday, implied he had a weapon and began threatening a P.E. class. A school officer who came to the area and says Martin got back in his truck and tried to run over the officer.
Martin fled to a wooded area and later told police after his capture that he was on a two-day cocaine binge. He was arrested on aggravated assault, fleeing and other charges.

Queens Man Commits Suicide by Homemade Explosive
Definitely unusual.
As suicide methods go, homemade explosives certainly rank among the most unusual. That's what police say a man in Kew Gardens used to kill himself Monday. Per the New York Daily News: "One cop source said the man built an incendiary device and triggered it inside his second-story apartment to end his life. A second police source said the man appears to have placed the device in his mouth. It was not clear if the device caused an explosion or ignited a fire." But it did leave the 70-year-old with "severe injuries to his face and chest," which killed him.

Letterpress – Word Game
App Developer: atebits
Version Reviewed: 1.1
Licence: Free with in-app purchase. Requires iOS 5.0 or later. This app is optimized for iPhone 5.
Are you into Scrabble or Words With Friends? Then you will certainly enjoy this latest word game to come to iOS devices. Letterpress is an online social game that allows you to compete against friends via Game Center integration.
It is so popular that it broke Apple's Game Center servers in its first week of release.
How many words do you know? I'll take a guess: significantly fewer than you think you know. At least that is my experience with Letterpress.
Letters are presented on a board containing 25 letter combinations. Plenty of word opportunities, right? Not quite. You will see many challenging letters such as v, x, z, and q presented up to twice or even three times in a single game, plus not all vowels are included in each game. The result is a game that is significantly demanding and one that is highly addictive.

Consider this (abominable) piece of code:
volatile unsigned long a[1];
unsigned long T;
void main(void)
a[0] = 0x6675636b; /* first access of a */
T = *a;
*(((char *)a) + 3) = 0x64; /* second access of a */
T = *a;
...the question: is
((char *)a) volatile or non-volatile?
This begs a larger question: should there be a dependence between the two accesses of a? That is, human common sense says there is, but the C99 standard says that volatile things don't alias non-volatile things -- so if
((char *)a) is non-volatile, then the two accesses don't alias, and there isn't a dependence.
More correctly, C99 6.7.3 (para 5) reads:
"If an attempt is made to refer to an object defined with a volatile-qualified type through use of an lvalue with non-volatile-qualified type, the behavior is undefined."
So when we typecast
a, does the volatile qualifier apply?

About Me
I've been shooting traditional things for the last few years and decided that I'd like to get into the modeling and fashion scene here in Los Angeles.
There are a number of established venues locally and I've had the opportunity to photograph more models than I could have ever accessed on my own. They have provided wonderful opportunities to photograph in a wide variety of studio settings ranging from traditional to really crazy artistic stuff.
I'm growing artistically and I think I have something to offer the talent I work with. I'm up for doing different things so work with me and I'm sure we can come up with creative ideas for new and interesting photoshoots.
I hope to meet more talent here on Model Mayhem and continue photographing the Los Angeles/ Hollywood modeling and fashion scene.

Who Is "The Walking Dead's" Ezekiel - And Why Does He Have a Pet Tiger?
Comic Books, TV
Welcome to the four hundred and ninth in a series of examinations of comic book legends and whether they are true or false. Click here for an archive of the previous four hundred and eight. This week, who is Scott Seva and how close did he come to portraying Spider-Man on film? Did Jerry Siegel almost write "Whatever Happened to the Man of Tomorrow?" Finally, what behind the scenes reason led to the whole "Ms. Marvel gives birth to her own boyfriend" plot in Avengers #200?
Let's begin!
Every day this year, I will be examining the first pages of random comics. This month I will be doing theme weeks, with each week devoted to comics from one decade. This week's decade(s): the 1930s/1940s! Today's page is from Comics Magazine #1 (a Dr. Mystic story), which was published by Comics Magazine Company and is cover dated May 1936. It's reprinted in Supermen!, which Fantagraphics published in 2009 and which is ridiculously awesome. Enjoy!

Critical Rating: AAA 1/2
Genre: Foot/Leg Fetish
From all reports, some men fantasize about fondling the feet of professional football place kickers and having the favor reciprocated. This movie, obviously, isn't for them. Not that we're making value judgments, mind you. It's just that given the choice between a hairy guy named Bronco or any of these astounding lovely ladies, well, you know what we're gettin at.
Above average foot doings are what's in this edition of the series, and for those with the fetish, there's plenty to view here.
Cover foot girl Proxy Paige grinds her panties between her toes pre-footjob and takes her man's load all over her arches. Presley Maddox has a cupcake on her panties and stars tattood on the tops of one of her feet. Her sparkly blue pedi gets coated in jizz. Blonde Tweety Valentine's eyes are kinda dead, but her ass is cute and she gives fine foot on a bright yellow couch. Katie Angel has a joy about her, and she lights up when her footjob dick arrives in the scene.
Bella Blaze sports ginormous cans and tattooed feet that will please all viewers. Cindy Snow skips panties and gets nude quick for her foot show.

New to Multisite and ThreeWP Broadcast. It's an excellent plugin and does what it's supposed to... except featured images.
I have a football site and have set up 12 smaller sub-sites using WordPress' multisite feature. The plan is to broadcast posts from the sub-sites to the main one, and sometimes other club sites.
My problem lies with the Featured Images though, which won't broadcast. When the post is broadcast the URL for the image is entirely wrong, so doesn't publish.
I have to manually reupload the image to the main/sub site to get it working, which defeats the purpose really - ideally the image should work in them all.
Could anyone advise me on this?

Comments about 'Robert J. Samuelson: Presidents can't do much to aid the middle class'

Presidents can't do much to aid the middle class?
Is that the new GOP theme-of-the-day? Really?
"Gosh, America, you know, it's not that we Republicans don't care, it's just that we can't do anything about poor people, or old people, or sick people, or children. And, if you're middle class, we can't do anything for you, either. So you see, there's really no one left that we can offer any service to except rich folks, defense contractors and oil companies. And remember, corporations are people, my friends."
So long as medical bills are the #1 cause of personal bankruptcies in this nation, and so long as young people increasingly have to choose between a low-wage job or massive student debt to qualify for a higher-waage job, and so long as middle-class workers pay taxes at a rate twice as high as the tax rate of millionaires, there's plenty a president can do to help the middle class.
He can act as a leader to focus the nation's attention towards and propose solutions to these pressing middle class problems.

Expert on foreign policy and immigration may be a bit of over the top, but I will agree that he does have lots of very good experience.
The problem is that the GOP has a set agenda. No deviation is allowed, regardless how smart he is.
Mitt has shown that he is willing to adhere to the party line rather than to utilize his vast experience.
Even Grover Norquist says that all the GOP wants is someone to sign the legislation put in front of them. No thinking is required.

Mitt an expert on the economy? Hardly. Mitt is an expert on his own personal economy. Period. His economic proposals illustrate quite nicely that he understand only how the wealthy can become even more wealthy. He does not know the least thing about how to structure an economy that does not widen the growing divide between the haves and have-nots. How is a leveraged-buyout specialist going to apply those particular financial principles to the larger economy? We already have enough debt to go around.

Are you kidding? Why just here in these pages I've learned that Romney will do it all for the middle class. He's going to get us all easy, high paying jobs, send the illegals all back, get everyone back to church, fix marriage, eliminate taxes, unions and selfare, reduce gasoline costs by half, make us energy independent, sweep abortions, gays, and environmentalists under the rug, put a chicken in every pot and at least three guns in every home, get ads for cialis off the air, 'crack down' on everything, get tough with the chinese, eliminate all debt, and maybe for giggles let israel drag us into a war in Iran. In short, return us to the panacea GWB left us. In four years. Yes, the president can apparently do a great deal for the middle class.

Michael Campus, director of seminal African-American dramas "The Mack" and "The Education of Sonny Carson," died May 15 at his Encino home of natural causes. He was 80.
Campus, a Manhattan native, graduated from U. of Wisconsin and served as a U.S. Army lieutenant in Berlin after WWII. He broke into the business as a writer-producer on "Pm East/Pm West" late-night talk show hosted by Mike Wallace and Joyce Davidson, then joined ABC Television's special projects division to work on documentaries such as "Saga of Western Man," "Meet Comrade Student" and "India the Troubled Giant."
Campus later became director of special programs at CBS, where he supervised over 150 specials including "Horowitz at Carnegie Hall," Hal Holbrook's "Mark Twain Tonight" and Peter Hall's production of "A Midsummer Night's Dream." He worked for David Suskind's Talent Associates and produced "Ages of Man," starring John Gielgud.

Historical archaeology within the Mormon Domain should focus upon the globalizing flowscapes defined by Arjun Appaduri: ethnoscapes, mediascapes, technoscapes, financescapes, and ideoscapes. This perspective moves archaeological scholarship away from attempts to identify a single "Mormon Culture Pattern" and illustrate that pattern's collapse to processes of Americanization and Globalization after Utah achieved statehood. By shifting the focus to the relationships of exchange organized using the flowscapes, the Mormon Domain becomes an ideal venue to explore the roots of globalization's bifurcating tendency to deterritorialize nations and regions by connecting local places with transnational population movements. This intellectual perspective will further align historical archaeology in Utah and the Great Basin with general trends in historical archaeology, New Western History, and New Mormon History.

Lab 2: Enzyme Catalysis
- Enzymes catalyze a reaction by lowering the activation energy required for the reaction to take place.
The substrate is the molecule that an enzyme acts on
Enzymes are specific
Structure of an enzyme
When an enzyme binds to the correct substrate a slight conformational change occurs. This is called an induced fit. This helps in the advancement of catalysis as the enzyme converts substrate to product.
Factors that effect enzyme catalysis
pH and temperature are two factors that can cause the denaturation of an enzyme. Therefore, it is no longer functional.
Enzyme catalysis speeds up as the temperature increases. Since every enzyme has an optimum temperature, surpassing this temperature can result in denaturization.
pH is an important factor because certain enzymes work better under a certain pH- an optimal pH
The Experiment
To observe the rate at which catalase catalyzes converts substrate to product.
Catalase reacted with hydrogen peroxide for various amounts of time.
In order to know how much hydrogen peroxide is remaining after the reaction a titration can be performed with the use of KMnO4.
titration performance
Important Hints:
The rate of reaction is calculated by taking the change in y over the change in x. There are many different forms of the change over time graphs and they are all read differently. In this graph the appearance of product is what is being measured, but in our lab the disappearance of substrate was being measured.

The visitors found themselves behind due to Stevie Hammell's early own goal.
William Gros, who had earlier made three goal-line clearances, deservedly scored the clinching second goal before Motherwell's frustrations got the better of them in the closing minutes, with first Fraser Kerr and then captain Keith Lasley shown straight red cards for wild tackles on James Dayton.
Gros twice denied Shaun Hutchison and then hacked clear after Simon Ramsden's header was turned against the crossbar, while Lasley blazed over.
McCall said: "If it was a boxing match it would have stopped at half-time but credit Kilmarnock for the numerous blocks on the line.
"I thought we were rusty in the first 10 minutes but dominated the half-hour after they scored, but just couldn't put the ball in the net.
"We didn't play as well in the second half but they didn't create a lot of chances until we went down to nine men.
"I am not happy as we lost our discipline. Fraser Kerr has had a swipe at the ball and caught the player and Keith Lasley's challenge was born out of frustration, but it is not acceptable."

I'm away a few days and come back to a very stripped search facility here in support. The option to search by username, topics, titles, are all gone. Only 1 field remains with a "search" button.
Uh, don't mean to complain but this makes it tough to find anything here.
