60 minutes has been the home of liberal hacks for forty years--What's new, they're classic LIARS !
The longer the right keeps pushing this made up scandal, the more ridiculous they look.Hide replies
The longer the administration stonewalls the issue the mre looks like a scandal. Is this an all out effort to keep Hillary from looking bad? Come Clean folks.
MADE UP scandal???? You really need to open your mind. What's next out of you... the Twin Towers were a mirage, the moon landing never happened or Doyle never raided the Transportation Funds?
KRS, 4 Dead Americans in the Embassy attack is a made up scandal? I have seen you post some ludicrous things, but this takes the cake. Liberalism, is a mental disorder, and your posts prove that. Every village has its own idiot. I guess we know who is representing Shorewood.
Yep. You are right. It was really all about a YouTube video.
Another day, another GOP conspiracy theory dreamed up in the sick mind of some loon. Yet, even with this, they will not give it up. They'll continue with the lie for ever and ever.Hide replies
You are totally right walker fail. Even though people died and Hilary and Obama lied and blamed it on a YouTube video it is still a mass conspiracy made up by the GOP. I like your thinking!
So there you have it folks. This was all made up by the GOP and evil Tea Party. Obama and Hillary never blamed anything on a YouTube video and nobody was ever murdered in Benghazi.
"We take the vetting of sources and stories very seriously at '60 Minutes'"
The same 60 Minutes who had to fire Dan Rather over a bogus hit piece on George W Bush they didn't vet.
Yeah, you really take things seriously over there.Hide replies
Ha, now you're blaming CBS? That's rich!
CBS is not responsible for the 60 Minutes program?
BENNNNN-GHAAAAAA-ZIIIIIIIIIIIII !Hide replies
Still making fun of dead Americans, I see. Mighty bully of you.
America kills innocent peopel throughout world on a daily basis. CIA operatives in the middle of a revolution may not be so innocent.
There is another term for "stupid republicans".
Stupid deference of Obama's unreported drone war on civilians.
Really, this is no surprise to Us Tea Partiers!
Most of today's news sources come with a unbelievable -- nay, ridiculous -- bias. These "news sources" make fantastic claims and publish tainted stories with such political slant that it would be laughable, were it not peddled as "real news" or "unbiased news".
Stick with the real new sources: Fox News, Americans for Pro$perity, The O'Reilly Factor, and Club for Growth! You can trust that these news sources have been thoroughly vetted for journalistic and political biases.
Join The Tea Party! One should use Reason, Seasoned Judgment, and Facts when making decisions! =)Hide replies
Thanks for once again confirming your utter lunacy. Americans for "Prosperity" and Club for Growth are notorious right-wing PAC's, not legitimate news organizations
MSNBC and MJS are two excellent sources for unbiased news. That is where I go for news.
You really should add the 700 Club, Breitbart and the Drudge Report to the list of Tea Party credible news sources.
Your spiritual leader Pat Robertson has insights the GOP Tea Party live by:
Pat Robertson is alive? And you thought that was worth your time--lol!
CBS Anchor: 'We Are Getting Big Stories Wrong, Over and Over Again'
"Our house is on fire."
Daniel Halper May 11, 2013 12:09 PM
CBS anchor Scott Pelley said at a speech at Quinnipiac University that journalists "are getting big stories wrong, over and over again."
"Our house is on fire," said Pelley. The video of Pelley's speech is courtesy of nowthisnews.com.
"These have been a bad few months for journalism," he added. "We're getting the big stories wrong, over and over again."
The CBS newsreader was quick to take at least partial blame. "Let me take the first arrow: During our coverage of Newtown, I sat on my set and I reported that Nancy Lanza was a teacher at the school. And that her son had attacked her classroom. It's a hell of a story, but it was dead wrong. Now, I was the managing editor, I made the decision to go ahead with that and I did, and that's what I said, and I was absolutely wrong. So let me just take the first arrow here."
And Pelley said the republic relies on the quality of the news business. "Democracies succeed or fail based on their journalism," said Pelley. "America is strong because its journalism is strong. That's how democracies work. They're only as good as the quality of the information that the public possesses. And that is where we come in."Hide replies
CBS and Pelley have no credibility. They are Obama apologists like most of the mainstream media. Don't forget how they sat on Pelley's Sept. 12, 2012 interview with Obama in which he refused to call Benghazi a terrorist attack so as not to show that Obama purposely lied about it during the Romney debate and that Candy Crowley backed up the lie.
Another GOP lie, just like the IRS "scandal", busted...Hide replies
Is that what you are being paid to spin now, Minsky? That the whole thing never happened?
Obama never blamed it on a protest.
Hillary did not leave them to die.
Obama was never told it was a terrorist attack.
The attacks never happened.
These are not the droids we're looking for.
What are you talking about? Did you bother to even scan the article?
What difference does it make? (Hillary Clinton)
Saddest part is that obama's plan to take sides with the muslim brotherhood appears to have disintegrated like most everything he touches.
Inept, corrupt, whatever. Americans died. For nothing.
And the administration's reply?
What difference does it make?
Maybe Orwell was really writing about Democrats in "1984".Hide replies
Orwell was a Socialist. So it really isn't that surprising that Liberals in government use his writings as a "How to" guide.
All Better...Not necessarily democrats, but certainly people that feel government control and dependency is the cure for all ills.

lightbox auto plugin does not seem to work for me. the plugin did not automatically insert rel="lightbox" to linked image. i have my wp-lightboxJS plugin activated too. i must have tried every lightbox2, lightboxJS, wpLightbox , lightbox slideshow configuration already. I got it to at least show the image, but i'd like to know how can i eliminate the tediousness of the popup asking for location of image, the width, height, and group name..etc.. i thought if i click on the plugin it will do all..there must be something wrong..
Also for wp-LighboxJS download, the directions do not specify to put the usual scripts in header:
<script type="text/javascript" src="js/prototype.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="js/scriptaculous.js?load=effects"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="js/lightbox.js"></script>
<link rel="stylesheet" href="css/lightbox.css" type="text/css" media="screen" />
Is it because wp-LightboxJS.php takes care of that?
thank you, any help would be appreciated!

Hi, I'm implementing the widget like this on a portfolio page page:
<?php the_widget('cat_tag_filter','title=Filter Stoves:&button_title=Filter&cat_list_label=By manufacturer:&category_tax=portfolio_cats&all_cats_text=All Manufacturers&tag_list_label=Of type:&all_tags_text=Any Type'); ?>
I am using this widget on a portfolio page to limit posts by category, once the user has selected a category they are taken to that category page but the posts don't load as I'm also loading the widget on that page. It works fine when the widget is removed from the category page. Any suggestions on what could be causing this conflict?
Edit: The posts load if I just have:
<?php the_widget('cat_tag_filter'); ?>
On the category page, so it seems its just the $args that are causing the problem. Any suggestions?

Avatar Awards are not unlocking

Every time I complete the stage 1-1 on the mines I get this message:
"The game failed to write to your gamer profile. An Avatar Award could not be saved. Try again?"
Then I choose to try again but the message repeats.
I don't know why, I really wanted that hat.
Thanks :)

Some uses may want to optionally set a target on custom links. Any chance this feature could be added?
I've made a modification to this plugin on the website I'm using it in to allow a target to be set on custom urls, though I've just made it a text field with a placeholder of "_blank" as a hint. But I could you could change this to a checkbox if it's only going to be same window or _blank.
Also, rather than set target attribute, the checkbox could set a class of "external" on the link through which to hook some jQuery that actually opens in a new window, for accessibility purposes.
If you think something like this is a good idea, but don't have the time to implement it, I don't mind forking and issuing a pull request if you want to include any change I made back into the official plugin.

None of you could ever accuse me of having a particularly thick skin, but there is one accusation that does get to me. Cries of "clickbait" are often doled out in these pages. They seem to occur when somebody disagrees with the conclusions reached in the article, or when too much negative light is shed on the reader's pet brand. Cognitive lapses aside, these accusations get under my skin for a couple of reasons
- TTAC has never been under a mandate to increase our click count, and as long as I am at the helm, it will not be. Unlike other competitors, who tie everything from their editorial schedule to the compensation of their writers to "clicks", we are allowed to sacrifice quantity in favor of quality and editorial independence. This means that in exchange for our freedom, we don't get certain things, like unfettered press car access, or the budget to hire a copy editor. But our owners at VerticalScope have consistently understood and respected our need to liberate this site from the shackles of tyranny: in this case, click-based reporting, compensation structures etc. It comes at a significant cost, in terms of budget and salaries, but the end result is a website that can bring you The Truth About Cars, rather than baseless rumors, photos of celebrity genitalia and other unseemly editorial topics designed to juice our stats.
- In terms of ROI, a 1000 word essay on the topic of automobiles is hardly the stuff that clickbait is made of. Slide shows, listicles and the like are far better instruments to cheaply generate clicks, and they've never appeared on this site. Not agreeing with a point of view does not equal clickbait.
That's not to say that all clickbait appears in the form of a Buzzfeed-esque "YOU WON'T BELIEVE WHAT THESE 25 ADORABLE BABY DIESEL WAGONS DID NEXT" piece of "content". Sometimes, you get it in the blind repetition of totally baseless rumors that are, at best, wish-fulfillment for poorly trained, poorly paid bloggers and at worst, inaccurate information posted out of a reckless disregard for the realities of what it takes to bring a new vehicle to market.

A German court on Monday postponed the start of the most high-profile neo-Nazi murder trial in the country's history after announcing an overhaul of disputed rules on media access.
Proceedings were to have begun Wednesday against a woman accused of being part of a far-right killer cell blamed for 10 murders.
But after Germany's top court ordered the Munich judges last week to expand foreign media access to the trial its starting date had to be put back, in a move victims groups called a "catastrophe".
Hearings are now to begin on May 6, the court said.
Beate Zschaepe, believed to be the last surviving member of a gang known as the National Socialist Underground (NSU) accused of killing eight ethnic Turks, a Greek man and a German policewoman between 2000 and 2007, is to stand trial with four alleged accomplices.
But Germany's highest court on Friday upheld a complaint by a Turkish newspaper over media access to the trial in a controversy that had strained ties with Ankara.
The presiding judge in the case had assigned guaranteed seats at the hearings on a first-come, first-served basis, resulting in German reporters taking nearly all 50 of the reserved places and most international media outlets having no reliable access to the courtroom.
After a lawsuit by Turkish newspaper Sabah, the Federal Constitutional Court ruled that the Munich tribunal must provide "an appropriate number of seats to representatives of foreign media with a particular connection to the victims".
The federal judges suggested reserving at least three seats for foreign media or restarting the press accreditation process from scratch.
The Turkish government, victims' representatives, German leaders and journalists had hit out at a lack of "sensitivity" by the Munich court in light of the massive public interest in the case.
The spokeswoman for the Munich court, Margarete Noetzel, said Monday that the judges had not decided on a new procedure for media access in the wake of the high court reprimand.
"I don't have the faintest idea what criteria the court will now use for the accreditations," she told reporters.
A government-appointed representatives for the NSU's victims, Barbara John, blasted the delay as a "mid-level catastrophe," noting that many relatives had prepared themselves emotionally as well as logistically for Wednesday's start.
An anti-extremist NGO, the Alliance Against Nazi Terror and Racism, said the calendar juggling showed "monstrous insensitivity toward the victims' families".
The leader of Germany's three-million-strong Turkish community, Kenan Kolat, blamed the Munich court's missteps on media access for the trial's delay.
"Everything must be done to ensure that the the verdict cannot be questioned in the end," Kolat told the daily Die Welt in an interview to be published Tuesday.
A defence attorney, Wolfgang Stahl, said the delay was only logical.
"If the court had decided otherwise, we would have filed a motion to suspend the trial and start a new accreditation process," he told German news agency DPA.
Zschaepe, 38, is also accused of involvement in 15 armed robberies, arson and attempted murder in two bomb attacks, with 600 witnesses due to take the stand during the proceedings which could last more than two years.
She faces life in prison if convicted. Four male alleged accomplices will also go on trial on lesser charges.
Dubbed the "Nazi moll" in the media, morbid fascination in the bespectacled brunette has been heightened by her refusal to talk while in custody since she turned herself in to police in November 2011.
Zschaepe and her alleged NSU accomplices, Uwe Mundlos and Uwe Boehnhardt, who were reportedly linked in a love triangle, are believed to have gone underground in 1998 after police discovered their bomb-making operation.
Prosecutors say they funded their crime spree for 13 years with bank and post office robberies until the two men were found shot dead in an apparent murder-suicide following a heist on November 4, 2011.

Despite having good diplomatic relations in recent times and a long history of mutual cooperation through the British commonwealth, South Africans still must go through the regular Canadian visa application process when visiting. Also, all "temporary" class passports issued by South Africa have now been deemed inadmissible by Canadian authorities. South Africans must have other types of passport before applying for a visa to visit Canada.
Forms Needed
South Africans must download the Temporary Resident Visa Application package from the Citizenship and Immigration Canada website and fill it out completely. They must also fill out an additional form for any dependents under age 18. You must also submit a valid South African passport for each visitor, two travel-sized photographs of each traveler and a detailed travel itinerary with as much flight information as possible. Business or study applicants must submit additional information. If you plan to stay with someone already residing in Canada, you will need to submit a letter from that person confirming your visit and the length of time you will be in Canada.
Sending It In
South Africans in Pretoria can bring their visa application to:
Canadian High Commission
1103 Arcadia St.
Hatfield, Pretoria
South Africans outside Pretoria can mail their visa application to:
High Commission of Canada Visa Section
Private Bag X14
Hatfield, 0028
Apply in person to the Visa Section in Pretoria between the hours of 8 a.m. and 10 a.m. Monday to Friday.
A single entry visa costs R520 (C$75), while a multiple visit visa costs R1040 (C$150). South Africans planning on visiting Canada more than once in a period of up to three years should consider applying for a multiple visit visa. Mailed applications must include a check or bank draft with the exact amount made out to "The Canadian High Commission" if the payment is in South African currency or "The Receiver General of Canada" if they are in Canadian dollars.
People who have committed serious crimes while over age 18 and people who are ill are not usually allowed to visit Canada. You must be able to prove to the high commission that you will return to South Africa at the end of your stay in Canada. Some applicants may have to go through an interview process or medical examination before being approved.
Waiting Period
Your application could be approved within 48 hours if there is no interview or medical exam required. Statistics from the Government of Canada show that during 2009, 71 per cent of applications were approved within this time. Ninety-seven percent of applications were completed within 28 days.

"Nature Haven in a Rubbish Dump" Pulau Semakau by bpacker
Pulau Semakau Travel Guide: 15 reviews and 30 photos
Singapore is a squeaky clean place. Yes siree, we're so damm hygenic that even our rubbish landfill area smells good and can support a diverse ecosystem of rare plants and animals! I'm not joking, Pulau Semakau, an artificial island created off the west coast of Singapore, is a little haven for marine biologists and a sometime naturalists like myself. You can come here on an inter-tidal walk to check out the inhabitants on the seagrass lagoon. Bird your brains out (yes, there ARE pacific egrets here!) or try your hand at angling. As for myself, I was here on a Sunday morning, wading my booties off on a sea-grassy landscape with some folks from the Raffles Museum of Biodiversity. If you think I've lost it,you're not far from wrong. Just how many loonies would wake up at 5am to check out worms on a seabed? The thing is, I'll do this again come September during the migratory season. This time, instead of worms, I'll be checking out my feathered beloveds. This my friend, is worth waking up for.
Since I already have a page full of crabs, seashells and corals, I loathe to create another one. Click here to look at my Ubin page. I'll simply keep this page for general info and as an online birding journal.

What great tips and coverage of the Pulau Semakau you had. Been wanting to visit our local offshore islands...great job!
Super Pulau Semakau VT Pages, even it is not for me *smile* ... very interesting, great pics, loved the Brahminy Kite, thanks Glen, greets RoyJava, The Hague Holland
Oh yes, thanx! Very useful and interesting!
what do you think about the impact on eco balance island of langkawi when chicken skins are given to the eaglels . my opinion is in a few years the eagles can not fly and they will be full of chrorestorol
I agree, this little tour would be worth getting up early to do. I will have to keep that in mind for next time. Nice page!
I just signed up a kusu island reefwalk trip with the Blue Volunteers.... going to wake up ard 4am in the morning too! The Semakau trip is quite expensive, but I think definitely worth it right? :)
Semakau? I thought thats a little garbage dump island. Interesting to know other lovely creatures reside on that island too. Does the island smells? (sorry for being so naive).
Unfortunately, most Singaporeans, let alone tourists can make their way here, G....(a pity)
You bring very special sights of Singapore! All your tips on Pulau Semakau are truly amazing! Excellent photos!
Interesting island, bet a lot of singaporeans dont know about it :)

AET BioTech and BioXpress Therapeutics are pooling their expertise to develop a biosimilar version of Abbott's billion-dollar TNF-α-blocking antibody adalimumab (Humira®). AET BioTech is the biosimilars operation of generic drugs firm AET. BioXpress is a Swiss biotech focused on the development of monoclonal antibody (mAb) biosimilars. The firms aim to jointly develop, register, and manufacture the biosimilar, based on BioXpress technology. AET will shoulder commercializing the resulting antibody, and will in addition provide further investment in terms of committed long-term financing.
"The AET BioTech BioXpress agreement is an important step in moving one of our biosimilar projects to the market," comments Cori Gorman, Ph.D., BioXpress CEO. "AET BioTech's commercial contacts, biosimilar development, and registration experience and committed financial investment, and our mAb development expertise will help establish our companies as leaders in the biosimilar space."
As Abbott's top-selling drug, Humira made sales of $2.3 billion in the third quarter of 2012, up 15.7% on Q3 2011. Sales for the first nine months of 2012 were $6.6 billion, up 19.3%. The drug is approved in various global markets, for the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis, plaque psoriasis, Crohn's disease, ulcerative colitis, ankylosing spondylitis, psoriatic arthritis, and moderate-to-severe polyarticular juvenile idiopathic arthritis.
Earlier this month the EC's Committee for Medicinal Products for Human Use (CHMP) recommended approving Humira for the treatment of pediatric patients (aged 6 to 17 years ) with severely active Crohn's disease who failed, are intolerant to, or have contraindications to conventional therapy. Just last month FDA approved Humira for inducing and sustaining clinical remission in adults with moderately-to-severely active ulcerative colitis, following failure of other treatments. And in July and August the EC cleared the drug for treating adults with severe nonradiographic axial spondyloarthritis, and for the treatment of adult patients with moderately active Crohn's disease. The drug had previously been approved for patients with severely active disease.

Reasons to become a Sponsor of the PSF
The Python Software Foundation (PSF) establishes solid intellectual property foundations for the Python source code base. Our mission statement gives further details.
Sponsors have decided to join the PSF for a variety of reasons, including but not limited to:
- Wishing to facilitate a clear intellectual property environment for a technology which they rely upon in their infrastructure or product line.
- Hoping to provide financial means by which key Python developers can focus their energy on Python development rather than legal matters.
- As a means of increasing their visibility to the broader Python community, e.g. for recruitment purposes.
- A general desire to "give something back" to the Python community.
- Tax-deductibility: The PSF is recognized by the IRS as a 501(c)(3) non-profit charitable organization, and donations are tax-deductible for organizations that pay taxes in the United States.
Sponsorship levels
Companies, divisions, groups, and organizations of various sizes can benefit from PSF sponsorship. The PSF suggests guidelines for choosing an annual sponsorship level based on the number of employees using Python for development, data analysis, process automation and other activities:
- Diamond: $100,000/year – 2500+ employees
- Platinum: $50,000/year – 1001 – 2500 employees
- Gold: $20,000/year – 501 – 1000 employees
- Silver: $10,000/year – 251 – 500 employees
- Bronze: $5,000/year – 101 – 250 employees
- Copper: $2,000/year – 26 – 100 employees
- Iron: $500/year - < 25 employees
Divisions or groups within a larger organization can choose to sponsor the PSF as a group, and should choose a sponsorship level appropriate to the level of usage of Python within that group. However, if you belong to such a group within a larger organization, we urge you to consider whether the larger organization as a whole might be interested in helping the PSF and letting the world know about its support.
Individuals who wish to contribute at a higher level than a Supporting Membership may also become sponsors of the PSF, at whatever level they feel is appropriate. Moreover, we certainly welcome smaller organizations who want to sponsor the PSF at more generous levels. Determine what is best for you and your organization: the PSF, like the Python language, trusts its users.
Non-reasons to become a Sponsor Member
- Access to services
- The PSF is not a professional services provider or development shop. Sponsor members understand that their contributions do not entitle them to free technical support, preferential input into the Python development process, or any special access to the Python development process.
- Advertising
- We put the company logos and web links pointing to sponsors on the PSF home page, but that's it. We don't feel it's appropriate to have advertising elsewhere on the python.org web site.
How to become a Sponsor Member
To join the PSF as a sponsor member, an individual or organization needs to apply for membership, commit to a yearly financial contribution at an appropriate level, fill out the sponsor membership form, send it in, and pay the invoice in a timely manner (by check or wire transfer).
Board policy
Any organization is welcome to apply for sponsor membership - however, approval of the membership is conditional on a member vote at a member meeting, and the Board may issue a recommendation to the members regarding the application.
In the time between this board recommendation and acceptance by members (which may take up to a year), the sponsor may be listed as a Pending Sponsor on the website, after the application and prorated annual fee have been received. If a sponsor's application is not approved by the PSF membership, any fees already paid will be retained as a donation.
The names, links, and logos of paid-up pending sponsor members will be added to the PSF web page. However, pending sponsor members may not subscribe to the psf-members mailing list, which is reserved for elected members.
Potential applicants should know that the Board feels that membership in the PSF should reflect well on the sponsor members and on the PSF. To this end,
- The Board encourages applications from organizations with a provable and strong link to Python (e.g. organizations that use Python as a key piece of their software infrastructure).
- The Board discourages applications from organizations with unethical or potentially offensive business practices (e.g. spammers or pornography vendors).
If you have any questions not answered here, please write to the PSF at email@example.com.

Try this Venison Savory Stew recipe, or contribute your own.
0 people want to try | 1 have favorited
Do not skin, peel, or otherwise denude the vegetables or potatoes. Wash them briskley and then cut them up. The good stuff is in the skin, always, as the skin is what was intended to serve, protect and defend the pulp and seeds. Fill large crock pot half full of clean cold water. Add ingredients. Let cook on low heat for 12-16 hours. Season as desired during last 1 hour of cooking, adding bay, etc., as suits your individual collection of buds. This recipe may be done with any game animal, except that squirrel tends to be far too stringy for my taste. If you like hearty and thick, this stew is for you. It would also go well with beef, obviously. I do recommend a bay leaf added to the top for the last hour.

Democrats introduce exciting new meme to celebrate Obama doing nothing to fix the VA
posted at 1:21 pm on May 23, 2014 by Allahpundit
What am I missing here? There must be some inside joke or allusion I'm not getting that explains why you'd introduce this slogan during the one week more than any other of his presidency that illustrates what a terrible, disengaged manager he is. It'd be like the RNC rolling out a "Prosperity" bumper sticker the week of the financial crash in 2008.
So, obviously, it refers to something else. But … what?
We'll only print this if enough people vote for it – add your name: http://t.co/M55LY7QXnl pic.twitter.com/okRaRk8rPk

Hey @TheDemocrats, we like this harder-to-find version of your new sticker better. http://t.co/pACEPs7kA5 pic.twitter.com/YtZHQSOyIU
— NRCC (@NRCC) May 23, 2014
And then Democrats … doubled down:
Hey @NRCC, #dealwithit. http://t.co/hdN7HVFmbT pic.twitter.com/bAOhsi5j8L
— The Democrats (@TheDemocrats) May 23, 2014
Is he going to wear those shades to the funerals of vets who died while waiting for care? Which Democrat, at this point, wants a bumper sticker touting this guy's administrative skills? Hello?
Update: Jon Gabriel on the sticker: "Comes standard on every recalled GM vehicle."

people want to make it seem that somehow the VA was a bastion of good management and high standards UNTIL Obama became president. coolrepublica on May 23, 2014 at 1:30 PM
"Take the hospital system run by the Department of Veterans Affairs, the largest integrated health system in the United States. It is fully government run, much more "socialized medicine" than is Canadian health care with its private doctors and hospitals. And the system for veterans is by all accounts one of the best-performing and most cost-effective elements in the American medical establishment."
Akzed on May 23, 2014 at 1:54 PM
people want to make it seem that somehow the VA was a bastion of good management and high standards UNTIL Obama became president. coolrepublica on May 23, 2014 at 1:30 PM
"'A study by the Rand Corporation concluded that compared with a national sample, Americans treated in veterans hospitals "received consistently better care across the board, including screening, diagnosis, treatment and follow-up.' The difference was particularly large in preventive medicine: veterans were nearly 50 percent more likely to receive recommended care than Americans as a whole.
"'If other health care providers followed the V.A.'s lead, it would be a major step toward improving the quality of care across the U.S. health care system,' Rand reported." -Nicholas Kristof, 2009

AbstractThis proposal outlines a program to develop a vibration-free reverse-Brayton cycle cooling system using specially-tuned magnetic bearings. Such a system is critical for the level of sensitivity required by future electromagnetic and gravitational wave detectors. The nature of magnetic bearings and their accompanying control systems make them ideal for applications that demand zero vibration, low-gravity, and maintenance-free operation. Further integration of these bearings into a reverse-Brayton cycle for cooling instruments is an ideal solution for use in high-sensitivity, long-term operations. In Phase I, Mainstream will develop a control algorithm designed to eliminate virtually all vibration and will be developed and tested on an existing machine operating under similar operating speeds and conditions. Design of the system and individual components will be finalized for immediate fabrication and testing in Phase II.

The rumor goes that a company called Verifone is preparing a bid at $1.80. Can someone confirm this?
That company (verifone) is the one other stock in mobile payments besides tbow that i would buy. Plus, pay already owns 2.5 million shares and 500,000 warrants to buy at $2.00 per share until 2015. Wfc, ca/per, bmo and other big names owns shares of tbow. Why would they own shares in such a small co.??? Because, prc gave tbow until the end of 2013 to put their system together, so far, they have signed the big three telcom(s), unionpay bank which is the largest credit card clearing house in china, 150 retailers and they are building 2 cloud based data centers. This is the real deal........
Sentiment: Strong Buy
well we already know it opens at $1.15 on Monday.

Is anyone concerned about the 'defective grout' in bridges and overpasses?
Bridges that were built in the last serveral years may have 'defective grout'. I travel over this one twice a day, and several smaller overpasses that are probably affected.
Is anyone concerned about this? Should I be concerned about it? How can grout be defective, anyway?
16 Answers answer
Doesn't grout seal between joints and sections? It's not used to hold the bridge together, per se.
@thunderthighs: Right but this particular grout is prone to rust and, if rust starts, it can spread. You do not want rust in your bridges.
It just makes highway travel that much more interesting...one way to stay awake...hey kids, hold your breath till we go under the overpass, or over the bridge!
edit: I forgot to include mock terror while you say this!
Rats. The tag-editors have struck again. One that was removed was 'Holy Clay, Grout Man'. Stolen from the truly creative collection of grout humor defacing a bathroom wall from college.
Seeing as the DOT says it does not pose an immediate safety risk I'd say don't worry about it. You are far more likely to die from the semi w/ the rusty brakes behind you than the rusty grout on a bridge.
I would be far more concerned with the structural integrity of some of the older spans that we all drive over every day.
Should of checked Angie's list before they hired those contractors.
@cengland0: The materials used to build bridges are specifically selected to not rust. Just because something next to them is rusting doesn't mean it's properties are somehow changed and it starts to rust. Even if some of the structure rusted, rust only happens on the surface, it can only travel inward if there is a defect like a crack or void. At that point I think most people will be more concerned about "cracks and voids" than "rust" on their bridges.
Our infrastructure is pretty worn out in the U.S. I heard a figure that it would cost around 4 trillion to fix all of the infrastructure and that was a few years ago. That being said the chances of a bridge giving out while your driving on it are probably less than getting struck by lightning. The bridges are made to handle multiple times their actual intended weight. I guess just don't be in the wrong place at the wrong time.
"grout contaminated with chloride making it prone to rust"???
For grout to be prone to rust it needs to have Iron in it... Some grouts have Iron in them as a means of sealing against moisture... Moisture causes the iron in the grout to rust and the grout expands better sealing the space or void that it surrounds... Look at the base of light poles the next time you are parked on the highway in commuter traffic, between the metal base plate of the pole and the concrete base it is bolted to will be a layer of grout or mortar about 1 to 2 inches thick... More often than not the layer of grout will look rusty, guess what it was made with....
I'm not sure what Chloride contamination will do to the cement used in the grout, more likely it causes it to age rapidly and fall apart exposing the metal underneath which then rusts... Is there a concrete or cement expert on Woot who can confirm this??? Sadly, Reporters rarely get the details right....
@hobbitss: Thanks for the clarification. Reading through the thread I was wondering how a cement/sand mixture could rust. Now I know. :)
The state of municipality is required to test materials used in highway/bridge projects. Hopefully this was done in a satisfactory manner so as to ensure there is no safety issue involved. In addition, all states have in place bridge inspectors whose job it is to ensure that there are no unsafe conditions. Again, hopefully they have done their job in a competent manner. There may be an issue of the subject grout not have its intended life span and the need to replace it sooner than later, but I don't think it is an immediate or even near catastrope waiting to happen. If you personally have any questions or concerns about highways or bridges over which you travel, you should definitely seek answers from the state or municipality in charge. That is not to say that everything is necessarily AOK, but at least it would generate a crew being sent to investigate.
I don't think the grout itself is what they are worried about rusting. I believe the grout in question has been used to protect (coat) the steel cables supporting the bridge's structure. Since the grout is contaminated with excessive levels of chloride, it is likely to promote rust in the coated steel cables faster than expected.
Since these things are designed to last for quite a few years, this is not a safety issue because the cables will be inspected and replaced long before they rust to a dangerous extent. This is even more true since the inspectors, etc. are now aware of the corrosive grout.
The real issue is that these cables will (likely) need to be replaced sooner than expected, thus increasing the cost of maintaining this (relatively) new bridge.
@baqui63: High School Chemistry was a very longgggggg time ago...
Is it Calcium Chloride we are talking about, also known as Road Salt????
Yes, chemistry was a long time ago (and one of my favorite high school classes... only physics, electronics and video production were more fun).
Road or rock salt is generally sodium chloride, though fairly impure. The pelletized white ice melt sold to home owners for sidewalks tends to be calcium chloride. It is more expensive than rock salt but less damaging to concrete.
I doubt it much matters that much which chloride (sodium, calcium or whatever) as I believe chlorides are fairly damaging to steel regardless.
Last week marked the 5th anniversary of the collapsed 35W bridge here in Minneapolis (where 13 died and hundreds were injured).
Anything that can cause bridges to fail is bad news.

Key Lime Grilled Shrimp
Cooking Tip: Shrimp cook quickly, which makes them easy to overcook. Prepare them just until they no longer look translucent and they will taste crisp and tender and moist. Keep an eye on them; most shrimp cook fully in less than five minutes.

I can't believe NetBeans has reached the 10 year mark. It has happened so fast. I remember what was just like yesterday celebrating Java's 10th. Now here we are celebrating the best IDE on the planet. built on Java so it runs everywhere and yet it supports so many languages. Did I forget to mention it is easier than ever to build on top of the NetBeans platform!

The last few years have been amazing. Currently NetBeans supports developement for: Groovy and Grails, Java, Java EE, Java ME, SOA, PHP, Ruby and Ruby on Rails, AJAX, C/C++, and in the works Python. And the database support is amazing with MySQL, Postgres, JavaDB...and the runtimes: Glassfish, webrick, jetty, mongel, tomcat...they all just work out of the box!

I'm glad to have had a part in the success of NetBeans and am proud to share my joy with the world. Don't forget, NetBeans 6.5 RC1 is available for download now so go get it and check it out. Happy Birthday NetBeans.

 I don't know why I haven't mentioned this before, but, I have recently been involved with the JavaFX project here at Sun. It all started at JavaOne when I was afforded the opportunity to support the JavaFX project. Since then, I have been helping to ensure quality of the NetBeans plugins as well as quality of the repository. JavaFX is a family of products: JavaFX Script and JavaFX Mobile. JavaFX Script is a a highly productive scripting language for content developers to create rich media and content for deployment on Java technology. JavaFX Mobile is a complete mobile operating and application environment built around Java and Linux open source technologies. More information on JavaFX Script is available at www.sun.com/javafx. JavaFX script is built using Java and can use any existing Java libraries such as Java 2D and Swing but it makes it much easier to use these libraries. Check out the samples available on the JavaFX site and start contributing today. It is an open project from inception so I'm sure progress and innovation will move quickly.

 https://blogs.oracle.com/tonyb/entry/dual_boot_soalris_and_ubuntu Dual Boot Soalris and Ubuntu tonybeckham 2007-06-06T13:36:41+00:00 2007-06-14T20:16:57+00:00 Ubuntu and Solaris dual boot
 After much agony I have managed to set up my Ultra20 to be a dual boot of Ubuntu Feisty Fawn and Solaris Developer Express. The issue is that the Ubuntu GRUB doesn't play nice with the Solaris file system, and if you use the Solaris GRUB you have another problem: Ubuntu Feisty Fawn uses another form of identifying its partitions not the usual (hd0,0) or something like that. instead you have this long uid or something that the Solaris GRUB doesn't handle. Enough of the problems as there are many more, on with the fix.

 Here are the steps:
\*I used an 80Gb HD and just split it down the middle, 40 for Solarais, 40 for Ubuntu.

 1. Install Solaris to one partition, You will have to additionally add a root partition, swap space and /export/home partitions in this partition.

 2. Boot and make sure Solaris is fine.

 3. Insert Ubuntu CD and restart

 4. Install Ubuntu to the unused partition, taking care not to overlap or delete any of your Solaris partitions.

 5. Now boot again. Hopefully this time the Ubuntu GRUB boots. (Don't worry, we will add Solaris to the menu in a second)

 6. Open /boot/grub and make a back up of menu.lst

 7. Edit menu.lst and add the following to the boot options:

title Solaris-DevEx
root (hd0,1)
chainloader +1
makeactive
boot

 \*note: your Solaris partition may not be (hd0,1) it may be (hd0,0) or something else

 8. Save the new grub configuration and reboot.

 9. Enter the GRUB list by hitting "esc" when prompted. You should now have an option for Sol Dev-Ex, select this.

 10. Now the Solaris GRUB kicks in and you can start Solaris.

 You can now enjoy Ubuntu and Solaris on the same machine. Hopes this helps, it took me some time, many many reboots and reinstalls, and a lot of coffee to get this right.

 Good Luck
Tony

A time after before. I really want to spread some cool podcasts I've come across lately as well as some blogs. Back when I was attending school in Santa Barbara I was a fan of the show "The Screen Savers". Basically a low level tech show for anyone who wants to be somewhat up on current technology. They had many qualified hosts but my favorites (for many reasons) were Patrick Norton and later Kevin Rose. I have just come across a podcast that is basically "The Screen Savers" as podcasts. Check out the podcasts "This Week in Tech" and "Diggnation". The latter is Kevin Rose and Alex Albrecht discussing the tech of today a la Waynes World(from the couch). The blog digg.com and dvorak.org/blog/. digg.com is very similar to slashdot but instead of the editor choosing what is on the home page, the visitors to the page vote for the articles they want on the home page. A very community oriented approach.

Reed holds on to win Humana Challenge
LA QUINTA, Calif. -- Patrick Reed lost his putting touch for a few hours in the final round of the Humana Challenge. He found it when things were getting interesting.
After shooting three straight 9-under 63s to open a seven-stroke lead, Reed had a 1-under 71 Sunday at PGA West's Arnold Palmer Private Course to beat Ryan Palmer (63) by two strokes.
Reed ran in an 18-footer for birdie on the par-3 15th to push his advantage to three strokes and parred the final three holes. He completed the wire-to-wire victory at 28-under 260.
- At Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates, Spain's Pablo Larrazabal shot a final-round 67 to end a near three-year winless drought to capture the Abu Dhabi HSBC Golf Championship.
Larrazabal, 30, won by a stroke with a 14-under par 274.
Rory McIlroy (68) finished with a share of second place with Phil Micklelson (69) at 13-under.
Mickelson was left counting the cost of incurring a shot penalty after a double hit while playing from brush on the 13th hole and took a triple-bogey seven.

When I edit a page or a post and click "update," it gives me the message "Page updated," but the page/post has not in fact been updated. The text in the edit box reverts to what it was before, the live page does not change, and the last edited time stamp doesn't change from whatever it was before.
I can create new pages and posts just fine, it's only editing old ones that seems to be problematic. EDIT: I was also just able to edit the page I just created; perhaps it's only affecting pages older than a certain date, like before an upgrade? Is that possible?
After looking through the forums, I have tried the following things to no avail:
1) Cleared cache/restarted browser/restarted computer. No effect.
2) Deactivated all plugins. No effect.
3) Re-installed the latest upgrade automatically through the admin interface. No effect.
4) Downloaded the latest upgrade and uploaded it manually via FTP. No effect.
None of that made any difference whatsoever. Does anybody have any ideas what's going on?

Research Institution:
AbstractEmergent Space Technologies Inc. proposes to develop the Ground Enterprise Management System (GEMS) for spacecraft ground systems. GEMS will provide situational awareness for distributed ground systems, and an understanding of how events and automated actions impact the system in real-time. Recent software advancements have improved sustainability, extensibility, fault tolerance, and ease of automation for ground systems. These traits are important for NASA's missions, from Exploration to Earth and Space Science, but can pose challenges, especially when the system has a high degree of interoperability and communications between components that isn't visible to the end-user. Operators can quickly become overwhelmed with the increased complexity of software components constantly exchanging data and the volumes of information being passed around behind-the-scenes. In fact, for largely distributed systems, as much "situational awareness" is needed for the ground system as for the spacecraft itself. GEMS will provide a centralized integration framework that is needed to provide operators with transparency into the ground system, its state, and its component interactions. GEMS will enhance plug-and-play integrations while providing information management and system coordination. The innovation that enables GEMS is the development of "data-driven" algorithms and software adapters that gather data from the various components of the ground system to construct a data model that captures the system state, organizes the data, and displays it to the mission operators.

Hi all,
I'm trying to modify WP2 to insert rel="external" when I use the link quicktag. I had previously done this in 1.5.X and it worked fine. Just had to hack quicktags.js. Once I found quicktags.js in WP2 (it's moved from wp-admin to wp-includes/js) I applied the same hack and it has no effect. Here's what I did.
edButtons[i].tagStart = '';
edButtons[i].tagStart = '';
But, as I said, it hasn't had any effect.
Please help!
