hi everyone,
I'm trying to add this moving/sliding tab into my page.
Here's its demo page:
I've done everything to make it work but its not, take a look:
Can anyone point out what mistake I'm doing ?
I see you have jQuery 1.3.2 linked directly above the code, but you also have jQuery 1.6.2 as your dependency for other plugins and functions on the site. There's no need for the extra jQuery link. The plugin you're using works with 1.8.2, so it will work with anything less (considering it was built on 1.3.2).
Check this. This is the script being used with the latest jQuery, so no problems. It could be that you a have a conflict, regardless of defining noConflict in your code. It could be a CSS conflict, the classes are pretty common names such as "tabs", "content" and "panel".
Check for absolute references to the code. :)
Thanks for reply **James**
Well, at first I used jQuery 1.8.3 but I changed it to the exact version which was used in its tutorial.
Its working on both versions of jQuery on my local pc & even on a page where no jquery is being used.
I understand it could be the CSS conflict, but I just tried to remove the noConflict code, & its working now…..but the jquery image slider has stopped working.
So I guess there's no problem with CSS.
Any idea ?
Thanks in advance bro :)

Is this still a problem? It seems to be working to me.
This reply has been reported for inappropriate content.
You're including 3 versions of jQuery, never a good idea.
change this:
var $mtb = jQuery.noConflict(true);
$mtb(function() {
$mtb( "#moving_tab" ).tabs({
event: "mouseover"
to this:
event: "mouseover"
I tried it but same results, cant get it to work without adding noConflict code.
here's the full code:
$(document).ready(function () {
//set the default location (fix ie 6 issue)
$('.item').mouseover(function () {
//scroll the lava to current item position
$('.lava').stop().animate({left:$(this).position()}, {duration:200});
//scroll the panel to the correct content
$('.panel').stop().animate({left:$(this).position() * (-2)}, {duration:200});

Part of debugging is to fix things which may not actually be the problem. Before I can help I'll need you to only include the latest version of jQuery. Also the page has 211 HTML errors. http://validator.w3.org/check?uri=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.tradeglobus.com%2Findex2.php&charset=%28detect+automatically%29&doctype=Inline&group=0
This reply has been reported for inappropriate content.
Include the latest jQuery once in the " element. Usually you would include jQuery just before the closing body tag but due to the fact that you have scripts opening in random areas in the body it's best to include it in the head.

On January 28, 2015, Department of Transportation (DOT) Secretary Anthony Foxx and Wendy Spencer, the Chief Executive Officer of the Corporation for National and Community Service (CNCS), sent a letter to the governor of each State to announce a national service collaboration to expand youth-workforce development opportunities and strengthen transportation career pathways while improving infrastructure.
The DOT-CNCS letter encourages State agencies to work together to use youth service and conservation corps in transportation-related projects. States can lead this effort. The Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) may help facilitate these meetings and provide technical assistance, as appropriate. FHWA Division offices can:
The USDOT and FHWA do not have official guidelines for how to incorporate youth corps programs. We encourage State agencies to work together to determine what is best for their State and to combine resources to work with qualified Corps organizations in their State.
States may use existing Federal, State, local, and private programs. We expect that State agencies will find that using qualified youth service and conservation corps within Federal-aid projects for transportation workforce development will be cost-effective.
Example State Programs
Several States include youth service and conservation corps in transportation programs.
Example National Programs
Several national organizations and Federal land management agencies have active youth corps programs. See:

Big Local Projects in the heart of Dover
Big Local News
Dover Big Local's Hub launch day
Although the DBL hub has been open for a few weeks, we wanted to celebrate. On 17th February, local families enjoyed free facepainting, information on planting for bees, crafts and displays by partner organisations as well as a chance to chat about their ideas for Dover. Our formal opening was confirmed by the cutting of a ribbon by Jim Parmenter Dover Athletic Club Chairman and some of the junior team.
The hub is already busy with workshops, meetings and community events including events for young families, craft workshops and advice sessions. Do you want to run a community event or workshop and need a venue? It could be a coffee morning for young parents, a bring & buy sale, a youth bike-maintenance project, a tea dance for over 60s, an art and craft group …the possibilities are endless, or maybe you would like to know more about how to get funding to run a project in the Big Local area? You can now drop into the hub for a coffee and a chat with Trevor or Linda to see what we can achieve together. Volunteers are also most welcome to help us staff the hub, or to become Partners in Dover Big Local and help to shape what we do next - do pop in to see us! The hub is open from 9am - 4pm Monday to Friday and some Saturdays, subject to avaiability of staff.
Showcasing Art at the Hub
Local artists can now show their work at Dover Big Local's Hub in the Charlton Centre. Sam Capell, from DBL Art 31, is managing the art displays. The first private view was a great success and work by Dianna Harrison can be seen until 4th April, followed by a monthly changing show of arts and craft work by local people and groups. If you would like to display work at the hub contact Sam at firstname.lastname@example.com . Art 31 are a subgroup of Dover Big Local with a focus on the arts and welcome new members who have an interest or are practicing artists, musicians and performers to join in with projects and mutual support for arts events in Dover. Contact Clare Smith at firstname.lastname@example.com for further information.
Dover Big Local's Tourism Research Project
A contract has been awarded to Tourism Works, a NE Kent based firm, to carry out research, the output from which will form the Terms of Reference for an individual, group of individuals or an organisation to manage and coordinate the tourism sector in Dover. That research is now ongoing and it is intended that everyone who is involved in, or is impacted by tourism will get an opportunity to provide a point of view. This will be achieved either by face to face interview, questionnaire or workshop activity. Anyone who wishes to provide input and has not been contacted through any of the other methods may do so by contacting Tourism Works directly at email@example.com. We particularly need to know the extent of what is already on offer in Dover and how organisations already work together plus how they see things working in the future. Where can things be improved? What new initiatives would be valuable? Please get in touch.
Bluebirds Trail Update
Work will soon begin on The Dover Society's Lottery-funded Dover Bluebird Heritage Trail. The self-guided trail, marked by bronze pavement markers and supported by a free guide booklet, website and app, will highlight Dover's many heritage assets. A new Community Engagement Worker has been appointed and will involve local individuals, schools and businesses in the creation, understanding and promotion of the trail as well as setting up volunteer 'test teams' and working with them to test the project's outputs. The trail project is expected to be completed by September 2016. Look out for news of workshops and events as the project develops.

Golden Globes
Katie Holmes and Josh Duhamel announced nominations
Oscar fever has always had a privileged thermometer in the Golden Globe Awards. The awards, which take place two months before the most desired statues in the filmmaking establishment, are in fact the testing grounds on which to test what will later be the NOMINATIONS (all in capital letters).
And if we're talking about the nominations to the 2011 Globes we can't but talk about the excess of power -with a good seven nominations- of The King's Speech, a big historical drama (which will be released in January in Italy) that talks about the events -and of the stutter- of King George VI. An extraordinary Colin Firth (accompanied by Helena Bonham Carter) directed with confidence by Tom Hooper.
Following closely are the titles that have distinguished themselves for their presence in several festivals around the world. The always present The Social Network (who would have said that Fincher would have raised again after The Curious Case of Benjamin Button?), the dark and cruel Black Swan by Aronofsky, Inception by Christopher Nolan and the very new The Fighter (Mark Wahlberg and Christian Bale together. To ask for more would be too much). There will be also Italy at the Globes: Luca Guadagnino's Io sono l'amore was nominated as Best Foreign Language Film. Regarding the actor nominations there are also no big surprises: James Franco, Jesse Eisenberg, Colin Firth, Halle Berry, Nicole Kidman, Jennifer Lawrence, Natalie Portman and Michelle Williams.
The big left out from the competition is Sofia Coppola who might have to be content with her Venice victories: after the Golden Lion, her Somewhere seems to have been forgotten. Maybe the criticism wasn't groundless.

N.Y. Times: WASHINGTON, March 9—The chief of an Indian tribe represented by the lobbyist Jack Abramoff was admitted to a meeting with President Bush in 2001 days after the tribe paid a prominent conservative lobbying group $25,000 at Mr. Abramoff's direction, according to documents and interviews.
The payment was made to Americans for Tax Reform, a group run by Grover G. Norquist, one of the Republican Party's most influential policy strategists. Mr. Norquist was a friend and longtime associate of Mr. Abramoff.

About JanesVacation
I am a teacher and I enjoy living along Lake Michigan. It is a beautiful place that makes me feel like I am on vacation all year long!
By: JanesVacation, 12:50 PM GMT on April 27, 2013
The predicted high is 70 here today. It will be the warmest day since early last fall. I'm excited to run my new lawn mower I purchased a few weeks ago. The mister has decided that he doesn't want to mow anymore but he thought our old mower was still fine. Um, No. The old mower took 12-20 pulls of the cord before it started. At that point I was already to go in and have some iced tea. The new one doesn't quite cooperate on the first pull, but at the second one it roars to life. Then, watch out because this one is self propelled and I need to be ready to GO! Back and forth and back and forth in semi straight rows and in about 15 minutes it is DONE! Wonderful!
Our beautiful daughter has been here for two weeks, which is one reason I haven't been here chatting with you all lately. It is wonderful to spend time with her again after a 13 month absence. We just enjoy spending time together and laughing and talking and hugging because we can't believe she is back here again. It has been amazing.
She brought me some lovely things from Chile. A beautiful blanket from the Atacama Desert that I have been using as a tablecloth. I'll have to take a pic. Today is my birthday and she is my present. She'll be here about 2 more weeks, so there is still plenty of time to enjoy ourselves! Thanks to all of you who still stop by and leave a message. I value the time you share.

Reviews (36)First Review by cassius
flawless dinner - Edit
Great food!!!!! Awesome ambiance for a Saturday night. Attentive service!!! A++++++
Pros: the food was flavorful and seasoned to perfection.
Cons: none!!!!
delicious but a tad costly - Edit
The food was great, my sister and I went, each ordering just one main. She ordered a drink as we'll. What astounded me was that sauces costed 1.50$ for not that much.
Pros: great food
Cons: kale is not chopped, hard to chew in sandwiches
A perfect spot - Edit
I first got to know this place when they were over in Hudson. This venue is more restaurant and less cafe. It's a great place for a diverse range of foods and I have always loved their dessert items.
Pros: Great cake, Good location , Well priced
Fantastic Brunch - Edit
We went here for brunch a couple of months ago and it was amazing! To start, they have great mimosas. The French toast was to die for. I highly recommend going here for brunch - I look forward to going back to try their dinner menu.
Good food - Edit
They carry a good variety of different meals and the staff is friendly and courteous. The interior is not too cozy but it's ok and you feel good.
Not a fan - Edit
We purchased a Groupon for this restaurant, perhaps that is why we received the half-hearted service, although I did hear comments from those sitting next to us that the service was not good, and it appeared that they paid cash (no groupon). The food is uninspired, even bland. My dessert (the cheesecake) was the only item that made me mouth happy, otherwise it was quite boring and our server was so uptight, curt and when we tipped her accordingly she stared at us with a seething glare across the room followed by that passive aggressive tactic, "was there something wrong with the service?" When I calmly began telling her how it could have been better, she responded on what I should do next time as the customer.....(next time?) So, she wasn't interested in hearing just responding. In short, there usually is something to be said about a restaurant that has been around a few years and offering a Groupon.
Pros: Cute little place with a cozy vibe, Good location
Cons: Bland food, nothing special about it, Unacceptable service
A great meal - loved the tapas tasting plate - Edit
We ordered the tapas which gave us a little selection of everything and we weren't disappointed. All the dishes were top quality, while there were no particular 'must have' standouts they were all generally tasty and it was nice to try a bit of everything. It's a cute place, small tables. Nice wine as well
Pros: tasting plates, wine
Great Service Fantastic Food - Edit
You will not be disappointed in this Vegan Landmark
Tapas, Paninis, Desserts! - Edit
This place has great food! The tapas and the paninis have a lot of overlap, but I suspect that the paninis are a better deal. For $10 or $11, you get a sandwich with the same or more food than would be in the tapas portion, and delicious home fries. The rosemary foccacia is really tasty, but if you're gluten free, you can get the sandwich on a tasty tortilla.
Some of the absolutely delicious offerings include nama gori tofu, meatball sub, olive seitan, tempeh reuben, and BBQ tempeh.
The $11 chocolate cake is very rich and decadent! The brownie is also chocolatey goodness.
I will say that one Sunday morning, I met my friends at Sacred Chow for brunch. It was very crowded. A waiter with big hair sat us down and took our order, but then he came back twenty minutes later and asked us what we wanted to order... again! He must have been high or something. Ultimately, we got free desserts because of the mishap and for having to wait so long for our food, so the restaurant did right by us, but I would stay away from that server.
Pros: Vegan tapas, Vegan paninis, Decadent chocolate cake
Cons: Questionable service one time
Tapas - Edit
We chose a selection of tapas: eggplant rollatini, grilled nama gori, tempeh, seaside nori bits, black olive seitan and the special brussels sprouts. They were quite interesting. The nama gori has a distinct texture from having been frozen (and which we've unintentionally replicate when we cook and then freeze).The nori bits and seitan were especially good. Overall, the food was highly salted and many items had a lot of oil. Desserts for us were the ample specials apple blueberry crisp and a maple cheesecake. The room was pleasant.
Pros: pleasant, interesting selection of tapas
Cons: too much oil and salt
YUM - Edit
Very good food. Amazingly friendly staff. Can't wait to go back.
Pros: Clean, Friendly, Yummy
Sunday Brunch - Edit
This was not my first time here, so I've been able to sample several of the brunch menu items. I suggest the scramble and biscuits. The table we had was too small - it made it difficult to even lift your fork and cut food if you're seated against a wall.
For a place that specifically serves brunch, you would think you could get a glass of orange juice, but you can only order the more expensive juice blends.
Pros: 100% vegan, good portions
Cons: limited space for seating, limited juice beverage menu for brunch
OK @best For Vegan Rest - Pro: Food, Tapas; Con: Service, Price - Edit
If you haven't been here, I don't think that you're missing anything. No world view will be altered by making a special trip to this restaurant as I did.
Their tapas style allows you to sample different entrées in reasonable quantities. I like their rendering of different foods -- meatballs, sobe noodles, mushrooms -- as deserving of Zag at review.
When I have to ask for H2O & my water glass is removed, w/o permission, after being refilled once, the service needs serious overhaul. Value for money is negative.
Pros: Vegan Variety, Tapas Style
Cons: Service, Value
Favorite! - Edit
I continually recommend and take friends of all dietary choices and restrictions here and everyone loves it. I think I am addicted to their fantastic, mouth-watering-wonderful foods, their seasonal specials and seasonal specialty cocktails, their extensive and delicious menu and beverage selection....don't get me started on their desserts. The staff is always very nice and helpful, the atmosphere is welcoming, there's a great music selection and various seating options. The menu is helpfully labeled including items that are gluten free, wheat free, sugar free, nut free, etc; the owner is gluten-intolerant or Celiac and they're very conscientious about cross-contamination (just make sure you tell them if you have a dietary restriction). Plus, it's all vegan and kosher and very yummy!
Pros: wonderful menu, great staff, allergy and dietary friendly
Cons: could have more seating , could have longer hours
Good food and variety - Edit
I went here with the family (2 young kids) and everyone enjoyed it very much.
It serves a variety of great comfort food and sometimes with a slight twist so it's interesting too. And it's all good from entrees to desert. There is plenty of variety.
Some people have left reviews that it's expensive for what it is. Well, it's table service in the city so let's be reasonable.
We were here for lunch and although there were plenty of people it seemed sort of subdued - like everyone was engaged in a romantic conversation or talking about things under their breath. But maybe it was just that day, or maybe it was just me? Not that it matters that much unless you plan to be the loudest one there.
Pros: All vegan!, Food tastes great., Variety
average Overated - Edit
brought here by a cs member.
As it told me it wss the VEGAN PLACE IN NYC i had great expectation.
however i had a really low average plate for like 12 or 13 box which I assume is a decent place for NYC but well that hasn't convinced me to go back, nop nop
Amazing - Edit
I love the tapas deal. I have gotten the kale, the olive seitan, and the peanut noodles. The peanut noodles were just okay. If I could choose again, I would try something else.
I had their mulled pumpkin wine. AMAZING. Do it. You won't regret it.
I wasn't impressed with the BBQ seitan sandwich. The seasonings were not my style.
My FAVORITE! - Edit
MY FAVORITE!!! Among all the restaurants in Manhattan, this is the one that I love the most! The majority of the dishes are SO tasty, and I don't really mind ordering the same dishes over and over again. The 3 Tapas deal is the best option to try more dishes in smaller portions - try the kale with Dijon mustard, it is surprisingly delicious! The desserts are also very good: some are healthy style (which I LIKE), and some are house-made decadent piece of heaven!
The place is simple but comfortable, and the huge windows make it very lit and perfect for an indoors Sunday brunch. Their brunch menu is SO good, I definitely recommend every dish there: banana french toast, walnut waffles, the scrambles, and sandwiches, etc - all delicious!
I would highly recommend Sacred Chow. - Edit
Before meeting up with the lovely Our Hen House ladies for an interview, we stopped by Sacred Chow in New York's West Village for a bite to eat. Earlier that day, we had eaten at V-Note so we weren't very hungry; but we also didn't want to waste the opportunity to check out an institution like Sacred Chow. It's quite a skinny little space they have, and you can't see the kitchen space at all unless you walk to the back of the restaurant. There were two other diners when we walked in and several more showed up shortly after we sat down.
Their menu is different than standard restaurant offerings. They have tapas (divided between plant protein plates and complex carb plates), heros (sandwiches also known as subs or hoagies in our part of the country), salads, beverages, and desserts. I had heard about the food from my friend Lauren, so I knew I had to at least try some tapas to get the full experience. Jim and I decided on the orange blackstrap barbequed seitan with spicy onions, the root vegetable latkas with Indonesian date butter, and cold sliced ginger soba noodles with sweet and spicy peanut sauce. Rebecca ordered a 4 Seasons salad, which had greens, beets, carrots, apple, strips of yuba, and a Dijon vinaigrette (which was technically a small and quite large). She also ordered the Very Berry smoothie with apple juice.
Needless to say, we ended up with some spicy vittles! The barbequed seitan had a thick and tangy sauce that just lingered on my tongue until I took a bite of latka, which balanced out the spice. The ginger on the soba noodles was just right for me, but Jim was already stuffed and didn't care so much for the spice at that point. Rebecca loved the smoothie and snorfled down the whole thing in just a short bit of time (and she's one of those slow eaters). We had enough left over to wrap up and take home with us. I really liked being able to share my food this way, family style; it offers a more simple alternative to a structured restaurant environment and the food is just as tasty. I so wanted to get some of their poundcake or velvet triple chocolate brownie to go--but I was stuffed already and didn't want to bulk up anymore for our interview. I was so satisfied, in fact, that I really didn't need any dessert at all and was fine until we ate breakfast the next day.
I would highly recommend Sacred Chow. It's inexpensive, centrally located in the Village, and has a diverse menu and fantastic food.
Pros: Food, Location, Drinks
Love IT - Edit
Okay, I think it's widely known that the service here is really bad. There's only one waiter and it's SLOW. However, the waiter was very friendly and nice and the food is great! The tapas are fun and filling! We got a quiche and tempeh (best tempeh I've ever had). The sweet potato soup was absolutely fantastic, I wish I had the recipe. The Charlie Brown Smoothie was also a big hit. The banana pound cake is good too. I'd love to come back for dessert and try out brunch some time.
Pros: Delicious Food, Creative Presentation
Cons: Slow Service
Delicious hero sandwiches - Edit
I love this restaurant. I have been to it maybe six times, and I always try to get something new and different. I've never been disappointed. I love their specials of the day, I always get the Hummus of the day, and their hot chocolate! Their sandwiches, sauces, and brunch menu is amazing.
Pros: friendly staff, excellent food , small and cozy
Cons: expensive
decent - Edit
been to sacred chow a few times. the brunch is pretty good as well as their bbq seiten hero. meatball hero was no good. it's really not worth the money at all. i have had much better food for cheaper. come on, $13 and change for a small hero? wtf?
great place for tapas and sharing - Edit
While Sacred Chow has regular-sized plates available, I really appreciated the numerous tapas-style options. This allows you to sample several dishes and share with friends. We enjoyed the mac 'n cheese, a powerbowl (with soba noodles, western tofu, and kale), the hummus of the day, black olive seitan, and spa salad. Each one was wonderful, but I have to admit the powerbowl really stood out. I also had a berry smoothie (with coconut milk base) and it was very tasty. I liked the space a lot, and our server was very nice and made a good recommendation for the smoothie. I look forward to sampling other items on the tapas menu.
Pros: vegan tapas, nice portions, very tasty!
Small, quaint, and cozy - Edit
This place has a great selection of locally grown food. I've been there a few times and love to try their different tapas.
Nice - Edit
I wish I would have been able to come here during the brunch that everyone talks highly of. I was here during the evening, so no brunch for me. They have a lot of good things on their menu, the restaurant is small and nice. The employees were very nice as well! Can't wait to try it again.
Okay but not great - Edit
I've only been here a few times and only ate lunch here, but I wasn't too impressed any of the times. I only tried the sandwiches and salads... never any tapas or breakfast items. I don't recall ever having problems with the staff (as many of the reviews below point out), and it was never crowded in there. I agree that it is a cozy little place.
Pros: Cozy place, Decent variety of food, Reasonable prices
Cons: Not the tastiest veg food I've had
Hit and miss - Edit
We ate here twice. The first time, we shared tapas amongst three people. The olive seitan and the special curried seitan were delicious; the 'meatballs' were ok and the orange bbq seitan was disappointing. We had a pretty decent charlie brown smoothie. The soup was amazing. The desserts, on the other hand, were pretty lousy. We nearly came back for breakfast one day but they weren't open when they said they would be and the menu didn't hugely inspire me.
Still, we gave it one more try, and unfortunately our second experience was very disappointing. I ordered the olive seitan, and this time it wasn't a patch on the previous time. The portion was smaller, with no salad garnish and not enough sauce, leaving a small, dry, bland dish which cost far more than it was worth. The salad I ordered was better, but came drowning in sauce - it would have been so much nicer if they had put the dressing on the side rather than saturating my nice salad with it. My partner ordered a 'hero' sandwich, which is basically tapas in bread (pretty much every tapas dish got recycled as a hero), and his meal didn't have all the promised trimmings. No opportunity to complain though, as they had only one waitress for a packed restaurant (and this was before 6pm - they had a huge group booking and didn't lay on any extra wait staff).
The decor is really nice, but the food and service are variable, and I probably wouldn't go back.
Pros: Soup, Decor
Cons: Not all food was nice, Poor service
Amazing Food with inconsistent service - Edit
Went to Sacred Chow twice during our trip to NYC. Once for lunch and once for Sunday brunch. For lunch we both had the tempeh reuben sandwich served on fresh tasty bread with sauerkraut. The sauce had a really nice kick to it if you like spicy foods. The sandwich was delicious. We also had very nice cappuccino and lattes. My spinach salad with shitake mushroom was fine but nothing special. The reuben sandwich was really incredible. The restaurant itself is nice. Cute and funky, casual vibe. The only problem was our unfriendly waitress. We arrived just after they opened and we were the only ones in the restaurant (others came in shortly after). I don't know if she was just having a bad day but she was quite unfriendly (didn't bother to tell us the specials, check to see if things were ok with our meal). Anyway, we did go back for brunch because the food was so good. Luckily she wasn't working and the waiter there was very charming and nice. I had the tempeh hash which was great (tempeh and sweet potato) served with great collards. My friend had the breakfast sandwich with soy buttermilk biscuits. It was a tofu scramble atop the biscuits w/ gravy served w/ collards. I tried some of his and it too was great! Sacrew Chow food is really good hopefully the waitress was just having a bad day and normally she's cheerier!
Pros: Food, Prices , Ambiance
Cons: Inconsistent Service
Can't be beat....unfortunately. - Edit
How I love the food here - the soups are divine. Really. Most of the tapas (if they can get them to the table warm, even) are good or better. Sandwiches are really nice. Their brunch is my favorite in the city, next to V-Spot in Bklyn. Waffles, yum! Cafe con leche! I eat at Sacred Chow frequently... But my lord is the service bad! Really bad...almost all the time. Part of the problem is the space; the kitchen is downstairs, its too small for two waiters but too big for one. But the people who work there really do a bad job making up for these problems. Slow, flaky, or distracted. It makes me want to get a job as a waiter there just so I can get decent service. Oh wait.... Great place, unfortunately.
Pros: Soups, Tapas, Waffles
Cons: Service, Service, Service
didn't like it - Edit
we got two heroes - mama's soy meat balls and something with tofu, that tasted like tunafish. neither of us liked it.
the water tasted horribly and the waitress was rude.
Cons: rude waitress, didn't like the food
Quite nice... - Edit
This was a cute little hole in the wall kind of place. A good place to enjoy a few tapas and a pitcher of beer. (YES I said pitcher.) You can't go wrong with any of the seitan tapas, stay away from the tempeh, its WAY too dry. Get one of their smoothies, a bit pricey but its a whole meal. Not usually crowded so getting a set won't be an issue. Down the street from Washington Square Park so its in a quit location away from the load crowded areas.
Pros: Cheap food, Tastey Food
Cons: Service could have been better, Expensive Smoothies
We love Sacred Chow! - Edit
We would definitely recommend this restaurant! The food was delicious and creative. We tried 3 heroes while we were there--the Mama's Soy Meatballs, the Roasted Black Olive Seitan, and the Orange Barbecued Seitan--and we loved all of them. The service was excellent...our waiter was so helpful and friendly, and when I asked if one of the sauces was spicy, he even brought some out for me to try before ordering. Although the restaurant is small, it is clean, comfortable, and inviting. We look forward to trying the tapas and returning many times!
Pros: All vegan, Helpful staff, Yummy food
I DREAM ABOUT SACRED CHOW - Edit
Every morning I wake up and wish I were here. I constantly talk about how I had the best breakfast ever! The most delicious tofu scramble smothered in creamy vegan cheese...so heavenly!! Please if you have a heart let me live in the kitchen so I can wake up every morning here!
Pros: Everything Rocks, Cool Waiter
Breakfast is out of this world here! - Edit
Probably hands down the best vegan breakfast I've ever had. Its a small restaurant with usually only one person serving. It can be difficult to get a larger group seated, but just try calling ahead. We saw a game of musical chairs going on with two parties (4 or more) trying to get everyone together as other patron's left.
Sacred Chow has a really good VIBE about it that goes along with the name. Its really a zen eating experience and my favorite vegan place to eat in NYC, yep even above Candle79. Is in Greenwich Village and is easy to find. The prices are reasonable. Don't miss it if you're vegan food adventuring! Order the biscuit breakfast sandwich. I think of my first bite of that like I do my first kiss...
Pros: breakfast, location
Cons: small
Mimosa heaven - Edit
The food and service is very good. It is a bit small and quirky, but the food is reasonably priced and tasty. Have a mimosa if you like sparkling wine. They use fresh squeezed OJ!
Pros: good food, good value, friendly staff
great for sharing! - Edit
this place is a lot of fun. Go with a handful of friends - not too many b/c it's a small place. Most of the dishes are inventive and really tasty. The tempeh was too dry, but everything else was excellent. A very fun, foodie spot.
Pros: variety, nice atmosphere
Cons: a bit small

Well, Gene, got my fair share of those as well. I think I must have
been maybe 10 or 11 when I started reading the Tarzan books; of
course, read them more than once. Well, most of the ones we had were
sans cover. I think they may have been original editions or

the dust jackets bit the dust. Tho' I do recall some rather lurid

Stan Laurel and Oliver Hardy have been part of the pop-culture landscape for so long, it's easy to overlook their impact.
But without Stan and Ollie, there might not be Cedric the Entertainer and Martin Lawrence, or Ralph Kramden and Ed Norton, or Abbott and Costello.
Comedians are, almost by nature, solo acts - even if they're in a group. (Think John Belushi on "Saturday Night Live," or Groucho Marx with his manic brothers.)
But when Laurel and Hardy formally were paired together for a short called "The Second Hundred Years," they created a template that has been one of the most enduring in entertainment.
They didn't start out inseparable.
Born in England into a show-business family, Laurel (1890-1965) was an actor and vaudeville performer, touring both Britain and the States. He made his first comedy short in Hollywood in 1917.
Hardy (1892-1957) was born in Georgia. He ran a small theater before catching the acting and singing bug, also moving to Hollywood in 1917. Four years later, he was paired with Laurel for the first time in "The Lucky Dog."
But Laurel and Hardy didn't become LaurelandHardy until 1927, when they were promoted as a new comedy team in the "The Second Hundred Years."
The drill repeated: Stan and Ollie, planning to do something big, get into trouble thanks to a combination of Stan's naivete and Ollie's bluster. Pratfalls, exasperations and "another fine mess" ensue.
Although the duo made movies together for three decades, their best work was in the 1930s. They were brow-beaten spouses sneaking off to a lodge convention ("Sons of the Desert"), old West prospectors ("Way Out West"), inept piano movers ("The Music Box") - characters who were chronically down but never counted themselves out.
And while they bickered onscreen (according to some sources, offscreen, too - Laurel, who did most of the creative work, reportedly insisted on being paid twice what Hardy made), they were united by an affection for and an unwavering devotion to each other.
Many duos have tried to replicate that alchemy, right down to the fat guy / thin pal formula. That it's a well that Hollywood continues to return to - think Martin Lawrence and Cedric the Entertainer in their 2005 "Honeymooners" remake - shows how much Laurel and Hardy's comedy still resonates.

There are several ways of looking at the Mariinsky Ballet's Homage to Balanchine, none of them entirely flattering. First it could be considered as a demolition job – not one executed with a wrecking ball, but a Fred Dibnah-style deconstruction that, almost lovingly, reduces something grand and venerable to so much rubble by compromising a few key bricks.
The evening opener, Serenade, to Tchaikovsky, is one of Balanchine's most architectural ballets, from the first moments when the ranked corps' outstretched, forbidding hands soften and louvre into graceful shades. Watching it is like becoming a camera, roving freely round some newly minted Parthenon. It can be analysed almost entirely in terms of flesh-and-blood metopes, pediments and friezes, the shifting scenes as much a play of light and fresh perspective as an act of choreography.
Balanchine puts in builders' jokes so elegant they seem an inevitable part of the structure, like the two sets of dancers who, by standing more upright the closer they are to each other, make a pair of flying buttresses that eventually scatter in confusion for lack of anything except each other to abut. He even decorates his ballet with the loveliest gargoyles ever made – a man, slowly advancing, with a woman pressed tightly to his back and covering his eyes with an outstretched hand.
When Serenade is well danced, this vision alone gives it an air of the metaphysical, a statement in abstract shapes about death and redemption. Even when the Mariinsky danced it, the image was beautiful. But it was no longer part of a great design, and this was what ruined a large part of the evening. The Mariinsky didn't show us around Serenade like artists, emphasising the whole, but like estate agents, pointing out a bunch of attractive features.
The torpor left by an unconvincing Serenade was so strong that we were nearly halfway through a carnivalesque second ballet before the audience remembered that it was allowed to have fun, even though Vladimir Shklyarov was clowning so hard in his efforts to remind us that he almost went over on his backside. In Rubies, pianist Ludmila Sveshnikova teased the dancers on as they laid bare the low-brow in Stravinsky's jazz-era Capriccio for Piano and Orchestra. Suddenly the girls were all Mack Sennett bathing beauties, and the boys all musclemen, or barkers, or urchins sneaking into the show under a loose piece of canvas.
Irina Golub will probably never be a huge star, because her limbs are in something like normal human proportions, but for years she has been the Mariinsky's sharpest ingenue-style ballerina. Here she made herself a one-woman fairground, whether tormenting her admirers as if she were the sparkliest, most unattainable sideshow prize, or swinging her foot high into the air like the mallet at a test-your-strength machine.
It was Rubies – tart and witty but looking somewhat displaced – that suggested another way of interpreting this Homage to Balanchine. It is normally performed as the middle section of a three-act ballet called Jewels. The first part, Emeralds, is a comparatively static dance to extracts from Fauré's Pelléas and Mélisande, where the women wear calf-length skirts (much like Serenade) and the shapes of the dance are more important than the dynamics (much like Serenade). The third part, Diamonds, is an elegant tribute to the classical tradition, with dancers dressed mostly in white, and set to a lightweight symphony.
Similarly, Homage to Balanchine finishes with Symphony in C, an elegant classically inspired dance dressed largely in white, to music by Bizet. Which raises the awful thought that the ballet company's new acting director, Yuri Fateyev, stitched it together on the theatre roof one lightning-filled night, cackling maniacally and picturing himself as the new Prometheus. But if this is a kind of "Frankenstein's Jewels", it is every bit as lopsided, pendulous and unlikely to produce offspring as that phrase suggests.
Symphony in C at least finishes the evening in style. Viktoria Tereshkina, Uliana Lopatkina, Elena Evseeva and Evgenia Obraztsova are by turns as regal, playful and tireless as the mercurial score demands. The Mariinsky's failings would be less frustrating if it weren't capable of near-perfection like this, or like the opening Swan Lake of the season.
Uliana Lopatkina is, almost literally, a dream of an Odette, her limbs seeming to move in some thicker, more supportive medium than air. So the occasional human impulse after some supernatural piece of floating, when she falls into the reassuring arms of Daniil Korsuntsev's Siegfried, for example, is like the tearing of a veil. But even beyond the reach of Lopatkina's spell this was a superb Swan Lake, with the most peripheral figures wholeheartedly living the drama, and believing the magic.

text: I am in the process of remodeling a 100+ year old Tudor home basement. The ceiling height is approx. 7 feet and has a beautiful beamed ceiling. I am torn between somehow sealing the beams and keeping a 'rustic' feel or using dry wall. I'm concerned about turning the room into a 'sterile' place w/ low ceilings vs. keeping the beams and height. Since I'm working on a budget, how would I keep the wires, pipes etc. out of the way without having to completely move/consolidate the major workings? Any suggestions on how to 'have the best of both??'

"The Art of Be-ing: Living Your Heart's Desire" our Equus Coaching Retreat in the South of France – 2017 dates to be announced shortly.
Equus Coaching is a unique and highly effective coaching service offered by two recognized Ottawa motivational and leadership coaches, Marlene Armstrong and Maureen Donoghue. It draws on the instincts and wisdom of horses to provide a greater sense of self, as well as social awareness.
The Unfiltered Truth Horses always react in an extremely authentic and intrinsically honest way – without judgment. With horses, there is an immediate and visceral reaction that speaks to your strengths, your weaknesses and your overall effect on others. Your body language and tone speak volumes; by becoming more aware of this effect and the emotions that drive it, you will be better equipped to take charge of your life and the directions you set.
An Awakening While this practice is fairly novel to Canada's Capital Region, it has been gaining increased attention and recognition around the world. Seeing yourself through the eyes and soul of a horse is the first step towards greater self-awareness and breakthroughs. Several equus coaching centers have emerged around the world, particularly in the U.S., due to the very impressive and compelling results it produces. The sessions are empowering individuals and teams to be better co-workers, partners and leaders. Overall, they are inspiring us to just be better.

This review is from: MartinLogan MLT-2 5.1 CH Premium Home Theater Speaker System Black System
Pros: Great sound quality, very clean and balanced. $1000 speakers for $200?, hard to beat that.
Cons: Careful installing them, finish scratches very easy. Mounted to the ceiling and barely making contact with the ceiling cause white scuffs on the top of the speakers. Luckily, because of how it's mounted, no one will see it.
Other Thoughts: After seeing the huge discount for these speakers, I took a look at the reviews and noticed people were having issues with the sub. I decided to take a gamble based on how well Martin Logans customer service was in correcting the issue with people that had to replace it.
I've had the system installed for a week so far and I can say that my sub appears to be working well without the crackling other people had experienced.
I'll keep my fingers crossed and edit this review if something happens to change that. These are great speakers and would recommend them to a friend at this insanely discounted price!
This review is from: EVGA GeForce GTX 460 (Fermi) DirectX 11 01G-P3-1370-RX 1GB 256-Bit GDDR5 PCI Express 2.0 x16 HDCP Ready SLI Support Video Card
Pros: Worked right away, windows recognized it and Nvidia drivers too.
Cons: It's refurbished
Other Thoughts: When I first built my PC in 2010 I had always planned to go Sli at some point. My first gtx 460 was the superclocked EE and it always seemed to do the job on it's own. I began to notice that these were getting harder to find new and had still held it's price somewhat. I went the refurbished route because for only a hundred bucks, it was worth putting off getting something new and spendy for a little longer.
Wish I could have found an exact one of my other 460, this ones plastic feels cheaper and so does the fan. It also runs on a higher voltage but good for what it is.
This review is from: Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO - CPU Cooler with 120 mm PWM Fan
Pros: Wasn't difficult to install, especially after watching the videos. The instructions that came with it helped for quick reference. I always like getting all the hardware and they included a few nice extra things like the bumper pads and thermal paste.
Has cooled my i7 950 by quite a few degrees on idle and max load. I've almost read enough to feel confident in my first overclock and now with my temps lower, my confidence is even higher.
Cons: A couple of the prongs on top appear to be crushed. Doesn't seem to affect performance, but aesthetically it's unappealing.READ FULL REVIEW

As early as 25 years ago, industrial system integrators saw the great potential that the Windows operating system brought to PCs. They saw the possibility of using the advanced graphic capabilities that Windows offered versus the relatively primitive human interfaces of DOS-based applications and those of other proprietary OSes. Windows enabled the development of controllers with advanced human-ma chine interfaces (HMIs) that provide a whole new level of functionality, and make machines easier to use and maintain.
The problem with Windows, however, is that it isn't deterministic. Factory automation applications typically involve motion control systems, which rely on timely reading of hardware position sensors to provide feedback on the position of motion axes. The Windows OS, however, is not designed to respond to outside stimulus in a predictable amount of time, and therefore, by itself, cannot be used to control applications involving multiple rapid events that have to occur at specific times. So most early industrial PCs were limited to being used for operator interfaces or were interfaced to a second computer that ran a real-time operating system (RTOS). In due time, multi-workload environments enabled Windows and a RTOS to run on the same system. The result: a single system running both environments.
Recently, industrial PCs have begun to be fitted with multicore processors that offer amazing processing capacity and many enhanced computing features that enable them to perform functions that were once exclusive to application-specific processors such as digital signal processors (DSPs). OEMs that desire to decrease system costs are looking to leverage multi-cores to consolidate control functions that have been implemented on several separate pieces of computing hardware. But adding more real-time tasks, plus human interface tasks, and distributing those among multiple processor cores while preserving the real-time responsiveness of the overall system, is a challenging task.
Fundamentals of Control Applications
To better understand the challenge of running several real-time functional blocks such as motion control operations on the same computing platform, it is useful to go over the fundamentals of what a real-time control system consists of from a software perspective. Machines are controlled by control loops. A control system sends out a command to a motion system on the machine and then periodically samples the result, making corrections until such time as execution of the command is complete. The faster and more complex the action is, the faster the periodic sampling and correction (called the control loop) must be.
From a software point of view, control loops as run by a RTOS consist of a high-priority sampling thread that is triggered by an event like an internal clock, which interrupts background processing by the computer. This thread reads data from machine sensors and re-enables interrupts when complete. The RTOS then goes off to run the next-highest-priority thread. Frequently, the task that is resumed is the thread where acquired data is processed and a result used to make correction to the system as required. Or, the task that is resumed could be updating a Windows HMI application running alongside the RTOS control loop. If nothing needs to be done, the processor may merely stay in an idle state until such time as the control loop starts again.
From a graphical point of view, an application that performs periodic monitoring of an event can be depicted as a loop as shown in Figure 1. Increasing the processing capacity without decreasing the loop-time leaves more processor idle time, as shown in Figure 1 (A →A-1), while speeding up the loop decreases the overall time that the loop takes to complete, as well as reduces the idle time (A →A-2 and A-1 →A-3). Reducing loop times is sometimes necessary when more precise control is required.
It gets interesting when one tries to integrate two time-critical workloads such as two independent control loops on the same processor, as described in Figure 2. For example, consider a machine that performs motion control and interfaces to remote motor drives via an Ethernet-based control bus such as EtherCat or Profinet. Both functions, the motion control and the Ethernet-based control bus, must be serviced at specific time intervals that are typically asynchronous to each other. In situations such as this, certain things need to be understood and accounted for, including:
1. The data acquisition typically needs to happen at a prescribed time or at least within the loop time. This means that the sampling threads must have the highest priority over any other threads. Also, the fastest control loop will probably be given highest priority over the slower one. So, as shown in Figure 3, the priorities might be: sampling thread of Loop A, sampling thread of Loop B, processing thread of Loop A, processing thread of Loop B, and then any other threads. In the diagram, because Loop A has to acquire its data at a certain time, it has to interrupt Loop B during its data processing cycle to acquire its data and then return to Loop B until it has completed its data processing, before Loop A data processing can start.
2. Every time a thread is interrupted, context switching takes place (context switching is the term used to apply to the saving of all information that is critical to the previous state of the machine so that processing of the interrupted task can be resumed after the interrupt is handled). This burns precious time, especially in cases where several fast control loops are running at the same time. It's costly even in the above example where only two control loops are running on the same processor.
3. Since both loops are running asynchronously to each other, it is possible for their sampling threads to coincide. When this happens, because Loop A's sampling thread is higher priority than Loop B's, handling Loop A's interrupt will take precedence. Good programming practice requires that interrupts be re-enabled as soon as the data has been read by the sampling thread. Any delay will affect the data acquisition performed by Loop B's sampling thread, which is initiated by the clock event that causes the Loop B interrupt.

Range Rover Spirito DiVino -- an SUV with an embedded wine bar
Here is the Range Rover Spirito DiVino (a pun which means both 'divine' and 'of wine'), and SUV with an embedded wine bar which Range Rover brought to the Verona Vinitaly 2011 wine even last weekend. The 313 PS (230 kW / 309 bhp) Range Rover Vogue SE 4.4 TD V8 is fitted with two refrigerated cabinets installed in the rear luggage compartment which can store up to 12 bottles of wine. The Range Rover DiVino's refrigeration unit can be recharged via a dedicated solar panel or by a power cord plugged into an external outlet. There is also a set of wine glasses and the exterior finish stays with the wine theme with the appropriate wine-colored body. The creation is a partnership between Land Rover Italia, Aznom and the wine publication Spirito DiVino.
2012 Audi Q3 - First look
Audi has officially unveiled the Q3, ahead of its debut at the Shanghai Auto Show. Featuring a "coupe-like" design, the crossover is unmistakably Audi as it boasts a single-frame grille, a sloping roofline and a wraparound tailgate that mimics the Q5 and Q7. In terms of size, the Q3 measures 4.39 meters (14.4 ft) long, 1.83 meters (6.0 ft) wide, and 1.60 meters (5.25 ft) tall.
Lexus LF-Gh revealed
Several new images and this video of the Lexus LF-Gh concept car made their way through the internets today following a release by the automaker. The car, teased earlier this month by, is set to debut at the New York Auto Show next week. A precursor to the 2012 GS, the Lexus Future Grand touring Hybrid (LF-Gh) is reportedly 4890mm in length by 1870mm wide, making it 40mm x 50mm larger than the GS. The concept is also said to be 1450mm in height, meaning it is another 20mm taller than the car it is replacing. As we previously reported, the LF-Gh will feature LED headlights, unique tail lighting and a large grille. It is also expected to get a new set of side sills and a rear diffuser. The rear-wheel drive four-seater will debut on April 19 in New York. You can find out more about the car in the press release below.

2012 Chevrolet Malibu teaser
Here is some more teaser material from GM on the upcoming 2013 Chevrolet Malibu. This time it's a video and we get to see a camouflaged Malibu sitting idly by while spy photographer Jim Dunne explains the tactics of his trade. It seems, though, that Chevy has no problem with spy photographers for this next-generation Malibu and will take all the attention it can get for the new mid-sized model. Co-opting a spy photographer to appear in your video is a clever move but the Malibu better measure up against the competition, models such as the Nissan Altima and the Toyota Camry, when it comes out. The 2013 Chevrolet Malibu will be unveiled at the Auto Shanghai motor show next week and at the New York auto show a couple of days later. The model goes into production in January 2012 with sales starting later that year.

"Tonight Show" host Conan O'Brien was hurt during the taping of the show on Friday.
O'Brien cracked his head while taping a stunt for Friday's show, according to multiple news reports. He was taken to a hospital for examination, bringing the taping of the show to an end. NBC aired a repeat instead.
O'Brien is expected back at work on Monday. Based on a statement from O'Brien that NBC released, the injury must not have been too serious: "Last thing I remember I was enjoying the play with Mrs. Lincoln, and the next thing I knew I was in bed being served cookies and juice."
Friday's scheduled guests were "Desperate Housewives" star Teri Hatcher, "Family Guy" creator Seth MacFarlane and musical guest Rodrigo y Gabriela. There's no word on whether they'll be re-booked for a future show.
