I'd like to know if WordPress is capable or if it is the best solution for building a coupons site? Take RetailMeNot.com for example, does it look like they are running WordPress? In some ways it sort of resembles a blog. What kind of plugins can achieve those similar functions?
Some features:If you click on a coupon, it opens a popup window and a new browser window with the merchant's website. You can save coupons into your account (if you create one). More importantly, how are they able to update thousands of coupons on a daily basis? Is there some way to auto-feed them or are employees manually entering the coupon codes, typing the short descriptions, and inserting an image?
Any input or help is much appreciated. Thank you.
Hi inline6,
Short answer is yes, WordPress would be a suitable framework for this type of site. Creating accounts is possible as are popups and the like. As to how they update the codes, I couldn't say.
Just bear in mind that WordPress is a blogging framework. If you want to modify it, you will need a good grasp of PHP and probably javascript/jQuery. WP does have great documentation and you will be able to get plenty of help on these forums.
Best of luck.
Thanks Mickyginger. I don't know why, but i always hear about WordPress being used as a portal despite it being a blogging software. I hardly hear anything about Joomla these days (has it gone downhill?).
@inline6 - WP can definitely be used to create a coupon site and I have been running one on WP for a long time. There are many plugins as well as ready made themes available which can do the job for you. The themes also have most inbuilt functions needed for the coupon site to run. Search for wordpress coupon theme and you can see how wordpress works on coupon sites as there are many such theme providers.
Are you manually entering the coupons and store info yourself, or are they automatically updated?
Depending on the theme you have different options. Some allow upload of CSV for coupons, some via XML and so on depending on how you configure / which theme you buy.
:)) - You were really funny with this.Retailmenot make a profit of 30 million $ / year. Of course the are not based on wp. They have their own platform. At this level of money it is required as the attacks on the site ... well they exist.
Yes you can built a coupon site on wp ... but this is all that you want to built it? Cause if you want also to make money ...The biggest problem would be to update the coupons and delete them after they expire. With the updating you might have some problems.Note: a lot of updates on wp might cost you money ( monthly fees in order to get the coupons )
I work with a script from couponsitescript.com. No fees for the coupons as I take them directly from the affiliate networks. It's not based on wp, it's a custom script. You can make it if you want also available on wp.
There are really only three ways that coupons could be added.
1.) manually by users and employees2.) Scrapped3.) Business relationship with vendor that provides API or import of coupons
My guess is they use all those methods.
Wordpress is not an appropriate platform for an application like this. Especially if you need to automate the process and integrate other APIs. Unless you really like dealing with poorly written code and repetition that is.

COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) -- Authorities say a central Ohio police officer shot and wounded a suspect overnight.
It happened at about 3:30 a.m. Friday on the west side of Columbus. Police said 28-year-old Anthony Trussell was taken to a hospital with a gunshot wound to the arm. He was reported in stable condition.
Police said Trussell was stopped while riding a scooter and ran away when the officer tried to arrest him for having an outstanding felony warrant. He hid in a shed and was shot during a subsequent confrontation with an officer.
Police are still investigating.

White Dove: The Creed McTaggart Pro Spotlight
How Creed's blossoming career took flight from a song
By Zander Morton
When it rains it pours. There's that old, tired adage again. Talk about cliché. But for Creed McTaggart, 19, from Margaret River on Australia's raw and rugged West Coast, nothing could be truer. Covers! Trips! Chicks! Bam! Rather than slowly gain steam, Creed's career just suddenly…happened. In less than four months time, he's gone from relative obscurity to full-blown surfing superstar—a point proven last month when he simultaneously landed the front page of both What Youth and Stab.
So what changed? According to Creed, nothing at all: "The last six to eight months I've just been doing the same shit I've been doing for years. It's almost like I was just called up recently. I've been really lucky. It's crazy; I haven't had a second to think about it all."
Circle back to early March. Creed was at home in WA doing the "same shit" as always—full-rotation alley-oops, slaying big North Point pits—when he stumbled across an interview in Soggybones (a magazine run by his friends in WA) with a band called Sleepy Sun. After delving into their music, he fell in love with a particular track, titled "White Dove," and decided to build a 10-minute edit around the song. Together with his friend Jay Grant (who cut the edit), he did exactly that, and so Abyss—and a blossoming career—was born. It's a web edit that bleeds quality, and the world took notice—rightfully so. If you've not watched, do yourself a favor and look it up.
Shortly after Abyss went viral online, I sat down with Creed at his home in Margaret River. Over the course of one hour and four beers, we had the following conversation. I came away a big fan of his honesty and humility, and hopefully those qualities resonate.
Your 10-minute short, Abyss, has close to 40,000 views. I think that clip kind of blew people away; it was a coming-out party of sorts. How much time did you spend making it?
There are so many clips going up these days and they're sick, but it's sort of just the same two- to three-minute things. I thought it would be cool to put a little more effort into it and try to make something special.
We filmed for about a month, but the big thing was having it premiered with the band playing live to the edit. So we did that in Perth. There is actually a live clip coming out that the band [Sleepy Sun] is putting together. It took a while to organize because they are from San Francisco, so we had to get them over here. As it turned out they were already doing a tour in Oz. I e-mailed them and they were coming to Perth to play at this art festival, and when we showed them the clip they were really excited. So they played at the art festival, and the next day I got to meet them and take them all surfing. It was sick. Then that night we had the premiere and it went really well.
Did a lot of people show up?
Yeah. I think there were roughly 400 people there.
Is this place [a house in Margaret River he shares with his dad] where you grew up?
Just for the last nine years or so. My dad designed this house. At the time he was married to this chick. She had two boys already and then they had a daughter together, so we had a pretty big family here. Where we're sitting was the boys' area, so I shared a bedroom with one of them who was my age. The other was a bit older, and he had his own room. But after about seven years of all living together, my stepmom and my dad split up and they all moved out. So now it's just me and my dad.
Do you still have contact with your ex-stepbrothers?
Yeah, a little bit. Both of them moved to Perth and they had stuff going on up there, so I really didn't see them for a couple years. Recently they have been coming down a bit more.
And you're 19?
Yeah, I'm 19. It was cool growing up in a big family because we are all so different. None of them…well one of them kind of surfs, but not a lot. He's more into skateboarding. And the oldest, he was a drummer in a metal band and into carpentry. Then my sister on my dad's side, she's younger and she's just a little wizard in school.
Those are all stepsiblings?
Yeah, I don't have any full. I also have a stepbrother on my mom's side; she had a son with this other guy before I was born. He's a lot older than me. I actually used to live with my mom full time until I was 10 years old. But I started getting really into surfing, which was hard for my mom because she was a single parent, so I started living with my dad since he's so much closer to the beach.
And my mom had another daughter and she's the same age as my dad's daughter here, so they get along and go to the same high school.
Are you all close?
Yeah. It's a big, complicated, stretched-out family, but we all get along. It was a good upbringing.
So you started surfing at 10. Was pro surfing always your goal?
It all happened naturally. I've just always loved surfing. I was into a lot of other things, but surfing I was always more psyched on. Then I got sponsored by Billabong, and things have sort of just happened from there.
Who were your biggest surfing inspirations growing up?
I used to watch a lot of surf movies. When I was younger my dad had a massive collection of old Jack McCoy movies, and I loved watching Occy and Curren. Once I got a bit older Kai Neville was doing edits for ASL, and they would come out each month in the magazines. I bought every single one, and I would just watch them over and over and over. Also, Doped Youth would probably be my favorite; it's one of my most watched movies. I was fully into Ozzie Wright and Dean Morrison and all those guys. I used to play football, and at the end of the games, if you played well, you got a certificate to the local video shop and they had surf videos in there. They had Momentum: Under the Influence, so every time I went there I got that one. I watched it a thousand times. It's funny because surf videos were so valued at that time because there wasn't the Internet.
Did you surf around guys like Taj Burrow much?
No, not really. Even Yadin [Nicol], I didn't surf with him much and he grew up more down this way. But there are always good surfers out down here.
You have to be a good surfer here. Other than South Point there's not many easy waves.
Yeah. A lot of people that come over here trip out on that. It's hard. If the waves aren't firing, which it's not all the time, it's hard to get shit done because the waves are so powerful and it's so extreme, windy, and cold. There are just so many variables. It's definitely easier to learn on the East Coast.
Did you have a favorite surfer growing up?
No, not really. I've never really had a surfer that I worshipped or anything. I sort of just like everyone's surfing. I liked the old Volcom movies when I was younger, and I hadn't really watched them in a while. The other night I put on Stoney Baloney and I got so psyched on Gavin Beschen.
Was that the movie that had Gavin ruling big North Point?
No, that wasn't the one. I can't remember where I saw that, but that was probably some of the first footage I saw of North Point when I was younger. Gavin getting barreled the whole point, like on the foamball the whole way. I was tripping. It was a different angle on the outside of the bay looking into the tube so you could see everything. I still remember that clip; I just don't know what movie it was in.
Do you recall your first surf out at North Point? How old would you have been?
I think I was 12 or 13 and I went out with Russell Ord. It wasn't that big—probably just a bit bigger than today. I remember taking off and just going straight on like five waves because they would zip past me too fast. Then I got one and made a little barrel and I was so stoked. At school, if you were surfing North Point you were pretty gnarly. It was street cred for sure. [Laughs]
Would you consider North Point this area's Pipeline in a sense?
Yeah, there and the Box. If you said you surfed Box growing up kids would be like, "What? Really?"
Have you copped some intense beatings out there?
For sure. I remember the first time I surfed there, I got destroyed first wave. I paddled out with Yadin and Dino Adrian—it was just us three out and it was like four- to five-foot and really windy. I sat out for like half an hour and didn't catch a wave, and all the boys gave me shit. Finally I paddled into this one and nosedived and was like, "Fuck! I'm falling in front of Yadin, Dammit!" I got so worked. But it was good, getting it out of the way, because I paddled back out and got a good one. It was the first barrel in my life where I took off and fully didn't think I was going to make it but pulled in anyway and drove all the way through and got spit out. I was in disbelief.

which is best free online web to store data with security ?
What kind of data are you storing?
Yes, your question is much to vague and open-ended for anyone to be able to give you a helpful answer. Please provide more details.
Also as important as what kinds of data (text, documents, etc) is how you want to access that data....
Without knowing what the data is? Nobody will provide you storage of data. If you can go for Cloud then they can provide security. It will be the easy option for you, but it would be paid. You can't store data freely.
Any of them, just encrypt the files before it goes up to the cloud. It is just a bag of scrambed bytes to them at that point no matter how secure or insecure their system is.
i used sitesled.com abt 4 years ago to host data free and they were very good. I don't know what they offer nowadays.
Thank you all for your suggestions, but as the OP seems to have lost interest, thread closed..

Adults Are Making Big Money Playing ... Dodgeball
(NEWSER) - Dodgeball isn't just for kids anymore. In the past three years, the number of adults playing the sport has jumped a yearly 20%, analysts say, per the Wall Street Journal. And for those who are good at it, there's serious cash to be won. "The money is great, so it kind of validates that it's becoming a real sport," says one player. A recent championship in Las Vegas had a $20,000 prize; over a two-year period, one top team reports winning $100,000.

A Lupus Widower Laments to Friends
By Mr. D.R.
So many people have had comments like, "I had no idea Susan was so sick." That was because Susan did not want anybody to know.
Because lupus is such a crafty disease and flies under the general public's radar, this is a good opportunity to clear things up.
Lupus is an autoimmune disease, not an infectious disease like HIV. People with lupus have an overactive immune system. The body's defenses actually attack healthy tissue. This has been happening to Susan for 30 years or more.
She was diagnosed around 1990, but she had symptoms way before then. Originally, the disease would manifest itself as flu-like symptoms for about three weeks out of every three months, with fatigue extending a month after every flare-up.
In 2000, lupus attacked her central nervous system and involved her brain. The original result of this new development was pain. From late in January 2000 until the day before she died, she was in pain. On the scale of 1 to 10, there was no day that she didn't feel pain on an 8 to 10 level. (With 10 being all-encompassing.)
Lupus attacked her lungs, causing shortness of breath, sleeping problems, and more pain in the form of pleurisy. In addition to Hashimoto's thyroiditis (causing cold extremities) and Sjogren's syndrome (extremely dry eyes) and a few more isms that I have forgotten, life was getting difficult.

Jori Erdman, AIA, is the director of the Louisiana State University (LSU) School of Architecture and an executive committee member for LSU's Coastal Sustainability Studio. By 2100, she says, without major infrastructural interventions, coastal Louisiana will be largely underwater. National, state, and local entities—including LSU and dozens of other institutions—are seeking ways to maintain healthy and productive communities in dynamic natural environments. "Different ecological, infrastructural, and settlement pattern languages mean that people see the Delta Region differently," she says, "and that has huge implications for how we work and live."
LSU is a big state institution and a lot of our students come from Louisiana. And Louisianans come to the table with a natural understanding of their dynamic landscape. Teaching resilience is to know the nature of change itself, so they have an enormous advantage from day one. There's greater public awareness among folks who aren't from the Delta Region, yes—as more frequent and violent weather changes have cast a light on Louisiana's landscape in recent years. The problem is that we don't have a lot of models in architecture through which design can address a changing and dynamic landscape.
The Coastal Sustainability Studio helps students engage constituent groups through a group of "fellows" who are post-doctoral students in the sciences and recently licensed architects and landscape architects who have demonstrated expertise in the area of coastal sustainability. Together, they're able to engage communities to ask hard questions not only about the future of coastal living, but what can be done today in terms of land remediation in a dynamic region.
Restoration and recovery are complicated terms, then, for the Delta Region—they imply that we can return to a fixed moment in time. But, there's never been a fixed moment in time here. Embracing the change of coastal systems is our goal and our message. Take river diversion, for instance. It means sometimes letting things flood, which seems illogical. But while water and sediment from a diversion will cover everything in mud, and perhaps temporarily displace us, ultimately it restores nutrients and satisfies the system's need to change.
It's such a dynamic region, in fact, that there are several ways to talk about it. When scientists talk about the word "design," for instance, they're using it to define a series of experiments supported by methods. Engineers speak about "design" in terms of optimization. When our architecture students and faculty gather around the table, they have to address those definitions in order to contribute to the process. The architect's capacity to visualize a particular outcome makes us productive members in these conversations and capitalizes on our expert knowledge of the constructed environment. —As told to William Richards

Doesn't matter who they have on the roster. Clowney is a once in a decade talent. Fales isn't even a first round talent IMO. No NFL team would be that dumb
The Rams took Bradford over Suh.
Suh was a "once in a decade" talent and there were a lot of concerns about Bradford coming out considering the circumstances of his final season in college.
Except Bradford had a strong arm and could zip any throw on the field to go along with a quick release and good mechanics. He also was an absolutely prolific passer at Oklahoma, a football powerhouse in a strong conference, and ended his career holding 15 school records including passing yards and passing TDs. Fales plays for San Jose State in the WAC and has had one very good season playing against mostly mediocre competition. He also shows middling arm strength.
Can't compare Bradford and Fales as equal prospects IMO.

If the Browns go from 5 wins to three Mingo,Sheard and Kruger failed also. Regardless Browns won't draft a west coast q.b. anyways. Chud and Norv Turners offense needs a strong armed q.b. If Browns don't want Clowney they would trade down.

Chargers (8-8 )

Dont like Yankey here. He wasn't all that impressive to me. But either Tiny (Antonio) Richardson or Aaron Lynch are both huge wish list guys for me. Give me Tiny every day of the week over Yankey, far better player, and much better fit for our power-zone blocking scheme, which tends to favor bigger, quicker LT's.
If it turns out that Dunlap/Starks (looks like Dunlap right now, but way to early to tell) is a solid starter (plausible IMO seeing that our OL coach has recruited Dunlap to play for him since Dunlap was in HS), then give me Lynch. He's a great pass rusher, violent hands, solid burst, and dropped weight to be a more explosive player. Van Noy wouldn't be a terrible option here either.
Also i think your overrating some of the Oregon guys. Lyerla will probably drop due to character concerns, and i guess he's had some mental issues (no idea about that, complete rumor, but seems somewhat substantial). Ifo is more of a late 1st round pick, honestly at this point, T Mitch is the better corner, and Ifo will get knocked for height being around 5'10" possibly even 5'9".

Mosley is a quality player but doesnt make much sense for the Bears at this point we just spent a 2nd round pick on Jon Bostic so I doubt we go MLB in round 1 next season Aaron Lynch, Loucheiz Purifoy or Antonio Richardson would all be better.

I know he has fans on these boards, but Fales isn't the kind of prospect that should be going second overall. Murray, Manziel, Boyd and McCarron shouldn't go in the first round (but two probably will). I personally don't see anything about Lee that says top ten talent, but I'm aware that opinion isn't necessarily the most popular one. I honestly have know idea what will happen with Purifoy. He's extremely talented as a prospect, but extremely average on game day. I could see him going late first on talent alone.

Reynolds in the first round would be a more than solid pick, but I think the value and need is far bigger for a new #1 CB - give the 9ers Purifoy.

An OT? Not a need in 1 at all. I'd much rather have Lynch or Purifoy.
Maybe. But it really depends on how Whitworth responds this year and if they extend Collins. If we are picking that low, I would assume Whit is back to his old self, but an eventual replacement is still a need at some point.

Sennheiser PC 360 Headset for Pro Gaming
Gaming Headsets item created by nightmancometh, Jan 26, 2011
- Average User Rating:
- 4/5,
Recent User Reviews
"Good all-rounder"
- 4.0/5,
Pros - Good bass, detailed mids, comfortable earcups, analogue earcup volume control, automatic microphone mute when raised, very lightweight
Cons - Flimsy construction, clamping force too high, mic not removable
For some time, I'd been looking for a decent all-rounder headset that I could use for both gaming and for work, as my job requires VoIP calls. Previously, I'd been using a Turtle Beach (D)PX21 headset for this, but didn't want to purchase another after its earcup snapped off due to the mediocre performance while playing music. I'd tried and returned the Razer Tiamat 7.1, and most recently been back and forth between the PC 350 and PC 360. After a much longer than necessary deliberation period, I decided to give the 360 a shot. I'm quite pleased to say that the Sennheiser PC 360 did not disappoint.
When I first took them out of the box, I'd been listening to my Sennheiser Momentums for the majority of the day. This is something I'd once before with the Razer Tiamat 7.1, and while the results were less than flattering for the Razer headset, the PC 360 pleasantly surprised me. I wasn't exactly expecting miracles from a headset that cost $100 less than my headphones to really stack up at all, but when I fired up some music, I was treated to nice, rich bass and clear mids. Treble, while slightly overstated, doesn't seem quite so shrill as some other headsets I've worn, and honestly seems much closer to the response of my Audio Technica ATH-M50's. This was - finally - pretty much exactly what I was looking for; A good headset that can adapt to music, gaming and VoIP while maintaining a high level of audio quality.
For gaming, coupled with my Auzen X-Fi Prelude's CMSS-3D, I found positionality to be excellent. In the test loop, I could visualize the sound tracing its way around my head, and when I fired up World of Tanks and Team Fortress 2, the results were even more spectacular. It's unfortunate that CMSS-3D tends to emphasize treble so much on a headset that already has strong highs, but a mild EQ adjustment keeps it from being overbearing.
Comfort-wise and construction-wise, the headset is a mixed bag. On the one hand, the massive velvet earcups and their padding is extremely comfortable to wear and wraps completely around the ear, but on the other hand, the clamping force is a little extreme for my head. I've flexed it somewhat, but the plastic construction makes me nervous, especially when it creaks and even sometimes pops out of place from the pressure. I've heard very good things about Sennheiser's warranty (which I've thus far never had to utilize), so I'm hoping that if anything does happen, they'll take care of it. The generously lengthy cable, at least, is fairly thick and well-shielded, and has a similar semi-rubberized anti-tangle coat to the Sennheiser Momentums. It feels absolutely solid, and the stress reliever going into the left earcup is quite firm.
As for the other features, the in-line volume control on the right earcup is handy, though it doesn't go 'all the way' down; It seems to cap the lowest volume to roughly half of the input volume, which is fine but unexpected based on most inline volume controls I've used in the past. The microphone is something that most reviewers comment as being ingenius, and it is. Having handled the PC 330 headset before, this works pretty much the same way. However, when moving the microphone past the mute threshold, the traverse is much smoother with a soft 'click', versus the heavy 'snap' on the PC 330's.
Overall, an awesome all-rounder, soundly beating out the Razer series in audio quality by a very wide margin.SaLX likes this.

I am relatively new to BT, and am currently using BT3.
Maybe this is more of a Linux question, but I'm a newbie at that as well.
I thought I would try to upgrade WireShark to the latest release. This, it turns out involved installing a few pre-reqs. One in particular is pixman. I had downloaded and went through the install of pixman-1.10.0. I then tried to rebuild the latest Wireshark, and get a message saying pixman-1.12.0 is required. So, I got that one and installed. Rebuilding Wireshark gives a message about find pixman 1.10.0.
So, the question is, how do I go about removing pixman-1.10.0 so that pixman-1.12.0 will be found by Wireshark? (at least that's what I'm assuming hast to be done.)

I am really confused that how many facebook friend request we can send in a day. Anyone can told me exact limit of sending request? Please help me!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I believe there is no such a limit. I found that some of my friend's "friend request" feature had been disabled for some days. Because they were using the feature every day and adding about 20-50 friends daily.
I used to publish my blog's content automatically on facebook using some feeder. Once I was about to join a social media club. The criteria for membership is that a member should have at least 500(I am not exactly sure about the number) friends. At that time I was having just above 100 friends. So within days I've increased the number to 500. But till now my friend request feature had not been disabled.
So I believe that there is no official limit for adding friends. It depends upon your usage...
Why would it matter? What are you possibly trying to do that involves adding that many friends?
Judging by the way that the thread starter made his opening post, it seems that he's in trouble, or something. I don't know what you're trying to accomplish with adding many friends on your Facebook account, because those accepted request won't matter if there won't be any interaction happening, and there is no genuine connection between you and those who have accepted your friend request. Anyway, to answer your question, there isn't any limit. I'll ask the same question as Ted here: what are you trying to accomplish?
Actually, I send several friend request in a day but next day i see that my account is blocked for 2 days. Then after 2 days i send about 20 to 25 request then i saw the next day my account was blocked for 30 days. So, that i am really confused!
We know that you're sending out friend requests, but what is it that you're trying to accomplish through those friend requests? Are you sharing something with that Facebook account, like content, some status updates, and whatnot? Have you tried checking out Facebook's terms and conditions? If not, you should check it out; you may have violated one of them.
Are you spamming random people or are these friends / contacts you actually know and just want to add in bulk?
Some 70% people i know and 30% people are this friends friend.
Just wondering... I know FB support isn't the greatest, but have you asked their support why your account is blocked?
Is your page personal or commercial? If it's commercial and you are sending out random friend requests and requests to "like" your page, under their Community guidelines, you are spamming and that would be the reason. If your page is personal, the only reason I could see it might be blocked is that one or members have reported you for harassment, the definition of which is repeated unwanted friend requests.
As I told earlier there is no official limit. Don't try to add friends in coming days. Wait for some days and be active on Facebook
I really don't see how this becomes an issue unless you're inviting people you don't know and in that case, what's the possible benefit?
I believe if you know somebody then facebook will not stop you. but if you sending randomly requests to anybody them facebook stop you there.. maybe temporary will block you
Actually, I don't think the issue is that you should use Facebook in a way that skirts the edges of their rules. Instead of worrying about what Facebook will do, we should all be concerned with the face we show to our friends and possible friends there. Sincerity and honesty plays strongly into credibility.
Yesterday i just send 8-10 friend request. Today when i login My Facebook account see that my account is blocked for 30 days. satish4321 what do you say to me that. If you don't know please don't give any comments please.
I think it's unlimited. I used to send 18-20 friend requests and nothing happened with my facebook account.
Again I'll ask: why do you possibly need to send out so many friend requests on a daily basis?
I say this thread has run it's course. If you want to know why your Facebook account has been blocked, you will need to find out from Facebook. All we can offer here is speculation.
Thread closed.

My son, Jono Zarrilli, attended your college camp this morning at the Batter's Box in Stamford. He thoroughly enjoyed the experience. From a parent's perspective, I thought it was well run and extremely organized. As a busy parent, I really appreciate this! All in all, a great experience, and one we will be sure to share with other baseball parents. Thanks again for putting together a great camp. Best, Liz Zarrilli
Thank you for this past weeks College Coaches Camp at Baseball Heaven. Your camp was well organized and ran the best out of all the showcases I have attended. - Nick Napoli
Just wanted to let you know how much my son, Spencer, got out of the Coaches Camp this week at Baseball Heaven. The program was terrific, and he especially enjoyed hearing you talk about pitching. I was very impressed with the camp as well--everything was first class all the way. - Ken Samelson
First we want to complement you on your College Baseball Coaches Camp as the best organized and well run camp that we've seen. Between the skills sessions and the actual games, the boys were always active and also learned new things to improve their skills. -Joe & Sally Veltri
Congratulations on a fine camp. My son Daniel told me it was the best showcase he has attended, in large part because there was so little "standing around". The four-diamond facility is well-suited to accommodate such a large number of players, and the coaches kept everything moving. - John Reynolds
I wanted to tell you that both my father and I believe that your camp/showcase was the best showcase we have ever been to...and we have been to quite a few. I will be telling everyone who asks that yours is the one to go to. I know that am I probably a Division 2 or 3 player, dead on with what my evaluation from your camp said.
Thank you again and best of luck. -

Original journalism from the Center's OpenSecrets Blog
Third Quarter Campaign Finance Reports Show Money Race Is On
October 16, 2009 | An initial Center for Responsive Politics analysis has found that sitting members of the U.S. House of Representatives raised $48.2 million from July 1 through Sept. 30, 2009, based on the 336 reports we have in. The mean amount these lawmakers raised was $143,640, and the median amount was $126,680.
Committee Members Speak Out–Or Stay Mum–On Health Care
July 9, 2009 | Over the past three weeks, Capital Eye has contacted members of five Capitol Hill committees responsible for drafting health care reform legislation this summer. Here are their responses (and non-responses) and the money they're collecting from various industries.
Tracking Your Representatives' Health Care Cash
June 25, 2009 | Here's a cool tool that brings together data from various parts of OpenSecrets.org to show how much money each current lawmaker has raised from various health-related industries and the health sector overall since 1989 (including President Obama's haul).
Dentist-Congressman Advocates Private-Sector Health Care
June 25, 2009 | The ranking member of the Ways and Means Subcommittee on Income Security and Family Support, Linder is also a former dentist and businessman. A former member of the American Dental Association, the group is also his No. 2 campaign donor.
The Price Isn't Right: Doctor-Turned-Lawmaker Opposes Public Option
June 24, 2009 | A former doctor, Rep. Tom Price's top contributors reads like a roster of America's medical groups. Out of the Georgia Republican's 20 all-time leading donors, only five aren't related to the medical field. Follow along as Capital Eye profiles some of the lawmakers who were health professionals in their past lives.
Diagnosis: Reform
June 17, 2009 | For some individuals, how Congress aims to reform America's health care system is literally a matter of life and death. For some industries, it could mean the difference between weathering the economic storm or shuttering their businesses. Over the next month, Capital Eye will be following the money as the various special interest groups continue to play politics in response to Congress's health reform proposals. Follow the month-long series here.
Money and Votes Aligned in Congress's Last Debate Over Bank Regulation
September 23, 2008 | The last time Congress seriously debated how to regulate the financial industry, the result was legislation that allowed the nation's largest banks to get even larger and take risks that had been prohibited since the Great Depression. A look back at that debate, which was over the 1999 Financial Services Modernization Act, reveals that campaign contributions may have influenced the votes of politicians who, a decade later, are now grappling with the implosion of the giant banks they helped to foster.
Brothers Grim: Is Lehman Next?
September 12, 2008 | Uncle Sam bailed out Freddie Mac and the company's twin sister, Fannie Mae, this week, and the next in line in the Wall Street family to get a helping hand might just be Lehman Brothers. Executives at the struggling investment bank are looking to sell the company with assistance from the government--and fast--as its stock plunges. Although the government isn't expected to completely bail out Lehman Brothers, the fourth-largest U.S. investment bank, the company has built a strong financial relationship with politicians over the years and coincidentally ranks fourth in the largest contributors in the race for the White House.
Update: Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac Invest in Lawmakers
September 11, 2008 | When the federal government announced two months ago that it would be seizing mortgage buyers Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, CRP looked at how much money members of Congress had collected since 1989 from the companies. On Sunday the government proceeded with the takeover and we've returned to our data to bring you the updates, this time providing a list of all 354 lawmakers who have gotten money from Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac (in July we posted the top 25).

Are you a pho addict yet? I didn't know about this brothy Vietnamese soup until a couple of years ago, but once I did I was hooked. HOOKED I tell you!
Most commonly you see it made with thinly shaved raw beef that's cooked by the heat of the broth and ladled over rice noodles. You're given mix-ins like bean sprouts, lime, basil and chilli on the side that you can add at your own discretion. Interactive food! You know I love that.
But it's often hard to find vegetarian-friendly versions of pho in restaurants. Luckily, you can make this aromatic broth at home pretty easily and load it up with all the veggies you want.
My version used a heap of mushrooms and spinach, as well as soba noodles in the place of the rice noodles. Traditional? Not all all. Vegetable-packed, slightly spicy, aniseedy pho-like goodness? Yessir.
You can easily make this broth non-vegetarian by using beef or chicken broth and fish sauce. I personally prefer the fish sauce here instead of soy sauce, but it's up to you. You could also add cooked shredded chicken or prawns.
Vegetarian Pho Broth (serves 4)
adapted very slightly from The Kitchn
– 1 large onion, peeled and halved
– 4-inch/10-cm piece fresh ginger root, peeled and halved lengthwise
– 2 3-inch/7.5-cm cinnamon sticks
– 2 star anise
– 4 cloves
– 2 teaspoon coriander seeds
– 8 cups vegetable stock (or stock of you choice)
– 1 tablespoon soy sauce (or fish sauce)
– 2 carrots, peeled and coarsely chopped
Char onion and ginger directly under a broiler until slightly blackened, about 5 minutes on each side. Rinse with water.
In a large pot, dry roast cinnamon, star anise, cloves, and coriander over medium-low heat, stirring to prevent burning. When spices are aromatic (about 2 minutes), add vegetable stock, soy sauce, carrots, and charred onion and ginger.
Bring broth to a boil, reduce heat, and simmer, covered, for 30 minutes. Strain and keep hot until ready to serve.
Vegetarian Pho
– soba noodles (or rice noodles)
– 3 cups mushrooms
– 2 cups fresh spinach, roughly chopped
– finely chopped chilies
– finely chopped green onion
– bean sprouts
– basil
– mint
– cilantro
– sriracha
Prepare noodles ahead. For soba noodles, cook in boiling water for about 4 minutes (according to package) strain and portion into bowls. If using rice noodles, soak in boiling water for approximately 20 minutes or according to package instructions. Pour broth over the noodles when you're ready to serve.
I added sliced mushrooms to my finished broth and cooked covered for about 10 minutes until tender, adding the spinach in the last minute or two. Serve hot with desired toppings.

Volunteer and survivor of 62nd Floor WTC 2, Greg Clark said about his experience with this program, "I found the experience of talking to the TSA team in Miami very rewarding. After surviving the 9-11 attacks I have been searching for ways to prevent something like this happening to other people. The TSA personnel have a really tough job and they were very appreciative of my telling of how I escaped the trade center on 9-11, afterwards many came and thanked me and gave me a hug. I hope that the message we delivered will help keep the TSA people on the top of their game protecting us from another tragedy."

KDE version has a problem on startx. Gnome works great. I think you should try this http://www.backtrack-linux.org/forum...x-failing.html
I think this new BT5 was a waste of bandwidth to download. Both the 32 and 64 bit KDE versions will only make it to the GUI through debug mode, and then I get to stare at a desktop while my common Logitech keyboard/mouse combo, that did function in BT4, just don't work.
The fact that only debug mode gets me into a GUI shows a complete lack of proper testing. I'm already seeing a load of fixes posted to overcome multiple issues. Sadly, without any input device function, all the fixes in the world are useless. Backtrack 4 was great...this one...pitiful example of a Linux release.

It's too early in the Big West season to call any game crucial, but Long Beach State and Cal State Northridge meet in Northridge tonight (7 p.m.) sharing the early league lead at 2-0.
The 49ers beat Cal Poly and UC Santa Barbara at home last weekend to improve to 9-5 with a five-game win streak, their longest since the 2005-06 season. The Matadors (8-5) opened league play with road wins over UC Riverside and Fullerton.
Alex Sanchez was named Big West Player of the Week for the first time in her career, averaging 13.5 points, 4 rebounds, 2 assists and 2 steals in the two weekend games.
Northridge has a win over UCLA but also dropped games to ranked teams Penn State and Oklahoma. They are led by guard Ashley Guay (13.8 points, 3.9 assists), Marta Masono (13.0) and Camile Mahlknecht (8.6 rebounds).
No Big West team is ranked, but Pacific (11-2 overall, 1-0 league play) had an RPI of 23 starting the week. Northridge (56) and Long Beach State (114) had the next highest RPIs among conference teams.
Chantley Dooley, who suffered a blow to the head against UC Santa Barbara, is questionable tonight. The last time the 49ers visited Northridge was in the first round of last season's Big West tournament, when they overcame a 19-point halftime deficit to post an upset.
The 49ers visit Hawaii Sunday.
49ers head back north
No. 6 Long Beach State will once again make the bus jaunt to Santa Barbara to open the Mountain Pacific Sports Federation (MPSF) season against the Gauchos tonight at 7 p.m.
The 49ers returned from Santa Barbara Sunday night after going 2-1 in the UCSB/Asics Invitational, beating Loyola-Chicago and UC San Diego sandwiched around a loss to AVCA No. 1-ranked UC Irvine.
No. 9 UCSB also went 2-1 at the tournament, beating Loyola-Chicago and Lewis after an opening round loss to UCLA.
Head coach Alan Knipe stuck to the same lineup last weekend, with only one newcomer, freshman libero Andrew Sato, taking a regular turn. Returning opposite hitter John LaRusch and outside hitters Taylor Crabb and Dalton Ammerman played the edges with Jeff Ornee and Colton Echave in the middle and Connor Olbright at setter.
Crabb had 41 kills last weekend and a .333 kill rate, LaRusch 28 with a .254 average and Ammerman 25 (.143).
The 49ers play at UCLA next Tuesday and finally make their home opener against Hawaii Friday and Saturday.

Dolly Parton defends Miley Cyrus
Listen to Dolly Parton on iHeartRadio | Listen to Miley Cyrus on iHeartRadio
Dolly Parton is defending her goddaughter Miley Cyrus.
The 68-year-old tells the Sunday Times magazine that she understands what Miley is going through—and that people used to think she was "just trashy" too!
"Back in the day, doing my own things my own way, and dressing sexy and showing my cleavage and all that, I got a lot of criticism," Dolly says.
"Lots of people thought I was making a mistake and that I was just trashy, which I was.
"So I did go through that, but I don't give her advice. Everyone has to walk this journey according to their own rules. That's what she's doing. And I lurve her."
Meanwhile, Dolly fully supports Miley, explaining she's "just trying to find her own place and wings and learn to fly."
"I've known her daddy the many years he's been in the business. I've watched her grow up," she says. "She's a smart girl. She had to go to extremes to get her point across. I think she got the point across."

Work directly with native camera formats
Adobe Premiere Pro CC offers thorough native media support, meaning you can edit virtually all of the major video, image, and audio formats natively without waiting.
In this demo, you can see me working with several formats within one Premiere Pro project: ARRI AMIRA, Canon EOS C300 and EOS-1D C, GoPro Hero 3, LongG on a Panasonic, Blackmagic Pocket Cinema Camera, RED media, and Sony F55. I can pretty much disregard the format I'm working with when cutting with Premiere Pro CC.
The 2014 release of Premiere Pro CC enables you to work with the vast majority of formats natively — including 4K, 5K and 6K RED media, XAVC, ProRes, and DNxHD — without transcoding or file rewrapping. Premiere Pro recently added support for Sony SStP and Canon RAW, and significantly expanded support for CinemaDNG formats.
That means you can mix formats on a single timeline and still expect the best-quality performance on a well-configured system — that is, a multicore CPU and modern GPU with a minimum 1 GB of video RAM and high disk throughput.
The Mercury Playback Engine takes full advantage of supported GPUs so you get smoother playback without rendering. With new support for the Intel Iris architecture found in current Apple MacBook Pro machines as well as Microsoft Windows configurations, the Mercury Playback Engine is now available to more editors.
GPU-based debayering for CinemaDNG and RED media is also supported, providing significant performance enhancements when you work with those formats and a supported GPU.
If you work with footage from the new ARRI AMIRA camera, you can take advantage of a powerful new workflow where LUTs created in-camera are automatically applied as Master Clip effects on ingest.
That's it! You're done. Please tell us what you think about this tutorial.

Baxendale gets first Double-A win
Twins' 2012 10th-rounder tosses seven one-run innings
By Jake Seiner / Special to MLB.com | June 4, 2013 7:13 PM ET
After posting a 1.58 ERA in the Southeastern Conference as a sophomore in 2011, right-hander D.J. Baxendale entered his junior season at the University of Arkansas with the look of an early-round Draft pick.
But he struggled with his mechanics and his ERA skyrocketed in the early going. As a result, he fell all the way to Minnesota in the 10th round.
The Twins were banking on the fact that the mechanical adjustments Baxendale made midway through the season would hold, and to this point, the former Razorback is rewarding the club for that faith.
On Tuesday, the 22-year-old paid dividends for another recent show of confidence, tossing seven one-run innings while picking up his first Double-A win as New Britain beat Richmond, 4-1.
Baxendale (1-1) allowed three hits and two walks while striking out seven. The Flying Squirrels' lone run came on Javier Herrera's solo home run in the fifth.
The start was Baxendale's second at Double-A. The hurler has rocketed through the Minor Leagues since being drafted last summer. He made six relief appearances with Rookie-level Elizabeth after signing before advancing to Class A Beloit. He closed out the year with 11 relief appearances there, posting a 1.64 ERA in 11 innings.
This year, the Twins began the 6-foot-2, 190-pounder in the rotation at Class A Advanced Fort Myers. He went 7-0 in nine starts with a 1.10 ERA and a 48-to-11 strikeout-to-walk ratio in 57 1/3 innings before being promoted to New Britain last week.
His first Double-A start didn't go well. Facing the same Richmond team he dominated Tuesday, Baxendale allowed eight runs -- seven earned -- on nine hits over 4 2/3 innings. He recorded just two strikeouts while struggling to command his fastball.
"My fastball didn't feel that great in that first start," he said. "I didn't feel like I had much movement or command with it, so I resorted to using my offspeed stuff. That got me into some bad counts, and good hitters will make you pay when you throw bad pitches with doubles and home runs."
He rebounded Tuesday with a more fastball-heavy approach. He said after the game that it helped to have a more advanced scouting report for a Richmond team he described as "kind of scary." It also helped that he felt more comfortable after spending the days between starts around his new team, easing some of the pressure that came with the promotion.
"It's always exciting when you get called up, but you kind of feel like you have to do well," he said. "It kind of went to my head and I tried to be too fine in my first start. [Tuesday], I just calmed down and pitched my game and stayed within myself."
Tuesday marked the latest strong outing in what has been a string of dominant performances since he adjusted his mechanics midway through his junior season at Arkansas. Baxendale's arm angles were off at the beginning of that season, and his campaign hit a low point as he allowed 12 earned runs in a two-game span against SEC rivals Mississippi State and LSU in late March.
"My arm angle started to drift downward and I was using two arm angles," Baxendale said. "One for my fastball, the other for my offspeed pitches. That was the reason for those struggles, and they picked up on it quickly in the SEC and made me pay for it."
Baxendale and Arkansas pitching coach Dave Jorn went to work on reconfiguring the right-hander's release to make the exit point more consistent. In short order, Baxendale was back to his 2011 form. Although his early struggles probably dropped him down some Draft boards, Baxendale has found consistent success in the Twins system.
"I never thought in my wildest dreams I would move up this fast," he said. "It's an unbelievable honor to be pitching in Double-A right now."

It's an image that's hard to look at without smiling.
A dog sleeps in blissful repose, head rested against the neck and shoulder of a ponytailed man standing shoulder-deep in water. The man appears in profile, and he wears dark glasses, but his eyes seem to be closed. The smile on his face matches the dog's contentment.
The photo has drawn the attention of thousands of people since being posted on Facebook last week. The story behind the photo is touching.
Professional photographer Hannah Stonehouse Hudson took it off Bayfield's Reiten Beach in Lake Superior on Tuesday. The man is her friend John Unger. The dog, an aging, arthritic shepherd mix, is named Schoep, after a brand of ice cream that's popular in southern Wisconsin (the dog likes vanilla).

Washington •Tyrone Corbin changed the starters, but he couldn't change the start.
Now, the question for Utah's coach is whether he will stick with the surprising new starting lineup he unveiled in Saturday's 83-76 win over Washington or return to something more conventional.
Derrick Favors and Randy Foye replaced Marvin Williams and Gordon Hayward in the lineup, a layered decision by Corbin, who hoped the new lineup would: 1) provide more offensive punch early; 2) open things up for Hayward playing with the bench unit; 3) create mismatches for the Jazz.
Well, it did one of the three, with Hayward thriving in the first half, scoring 13 of his 15 points.
However, the Jazz were unable to avoid a slow start, falling behind 15-2 before a Hayward-led second unit erased the deficit.
Reactions to the lineup were tepid.
"I didn't feel too comfortable with it tonight," Paul Millsap said. "I'm not going to lie."
While the power/small forward said, on the whole, he "doesn't have a problem" with the big lineup, he struggled against Washington's Trevor Ariza, who scored 16 first-half points.
"We asked him to do something different right from the beginning of the game and he's not accustomed to chasing a guy off," Corbin said. "It may be difficult for him. We can use it in spots when the matchups make sense, but we'll look at it. We'll evaluate it again and see."
Millsap had his worst offensive game of the season, making just 2 of 13 field goal attempts. Foye, too, had a hard time making the adjustment, finishing with 2 points on 1-of-5 shooting.
"It's the first night we started that way," Millsap said. "It was a little adjustment, but I'm sure we'll overcome it."
More DeMarre
DeMarre Carroll didn't score 17 points like he did on Friday in Philadelphia, but his overall game just may have been better.
"I thought he was key for us," Corbin said. "I give him the most valuable guy of the night, because his energy was what carried us."
After playing in just one of the Jazz's six games preceding Friday's loss to the 76ers, Carroll played 23 minutes for the second straight night. He was held to seven points on 2-of-5 shooting, but grabbed seven rebounds and made several key plays by just getting his hands on the ball.
"I think this was a complete game for me," Carroll said. "Yesterday was a good game for me scoring-wise, but this was more of a complete game."
Carroll, who sat down with Corbin 10 days ago in Denver to discuss his role on the team, has remained composed and professional, Corbin said. In the last two games of the Jazz's road trip, his patience paid off.

Zacarias Moussaoui: What We Don't Know Might Hurt Us
A Significant Stimulus for the Reform that Never Came
10 August 2011
Zacarias Moussaoui, one of the numerous "20th hijackers," was arrested ten years ago next Tuesday, outside the Residence Inn in Eagan, Minnesota. The arrest was one of the first events in a case that gave the FBI a chance to blow open the 9/11 plot, but resulted in abject humiliation for the bureau when its headquarters' string of errors was exposed in the press.
The Moussaoui case is a poster boy for the state of our knowledge about the attacks: we have some of the details, but know some are missing. Also, two key questions remain unanswered. This despite the wealth of information that came out at the trial and the fact that Moussaoui, although largely ignored by the 9/11 Commission's final report--partly due to the forthcoming trial--was a major topic of the Justice Department inspector general's report into the FBI's pre-attack failings.
These are the bare bones of the case: Moussaoui had been a known extremist for years prior to his arrest. Before the bureau first heard his name on August 15, he had been under surveillance by French and British intelligence and the CIA, although the agency would claim it only knew him under an alias. He was sent to the US for flight training by alleged 9/11 mastermind Khalid Shaikh Mohammed, possibly to participate in 9/11, possibly to participate in a follow-up operation. However, he was a poor student and dropped out of basic flight school before obtaining a licence and went to learn about flying a Boeing 747, which aroused suspicion.
When the FBI was brought in, the Minneapolis agents realized he was dangerous and arrested him on an immigration violation--despite being told not to do so by headquarters. This was the first of many times the Minneapolis field office and FBI headquarters clashed over the case. Essentially, even though they did not know he was linked to al-Qaeda, the local agents understood the risk Moussaoui posed--one even speculated he would fly a large airliner into the World Trade Center--and they wanted a warrant to search his belongings to get information that would lead to his accomplices. On the other hand, headquarters seemed to think they were alarmist and there was nothing to the case. They kept throwing up roadblocks.

I have been looking it over and can't find any references to searching for a hard drive in any of the rc.* files. Is that a possible cause of this problem?
And also, is it possble just to 'write in' the hard drive on fstab? And what would that be coded as? Just curious and really wanting to get this fixed.

Third in a row
The Canadiens enter the Olympic break on a high after beating Carolina 4-1 to complete a three-W week.
David Desharnais led the way with two goals, Ryan White got his second in as many games and Brian Gionta's empty-netter completed the scoring.
Carey Price made 31 saves.
Max Pacioretty was injured during the first period when he crashed into the Carolina net. He did not return to the game, but said after the game he will go to Sochi.
Nailing it down
David Desharnais made it 3-1 with his 11th goal of the season, six minutes into the third period.
With Anton Khudobin on the bench, Brian Gionta circled the Carolina net and tucked in his 11th.
Late explosion
For most of the second period, the Canadiens looked like a dozy team.
A turnover by Carey Price turned into the first goal of the game, by Drayson Bowman.
Then with a shade over two minutes left, David Desharnais converted a pass from Rene Bourque to tie it up.
And Ryan White, who'd been sent out for a D-zone faceoff (which he lost) put the Canadiens ahead when an Andrei Markov shot bounced off his back and onto his stick.
Drayson Bowman scored the home team's only goal.
Carolina outshot the Canadiens 14-8.
Max Pacioretty's injury is "lower body".
Pacioretty hurt
Max Pacioretty collided with the Carolina goalpost and left the game with an injury that may be his arm, shoulder, leg or ribs.
Whatever, the Canadiens leading goal scorer looked to be in distress.
Canadiens outshot the home team 10-7, but Carolina came closest to scoring when Andrej Sekera hit the post behind Carey Price on a power play.
Last one for a while
The Canadiens pay a supper-hour visit to Carolina, and then they're idle until Feb. 26.
In a New Year's Eve game at PNC Arena, the Canadiens blew a 3-0 lead, watched the Hurricanes score four unanswered and then got a third-period equalizer before Alexander Semin beat Carey Price 3:27 into Overtime.
Carolina outshot the Canadiens 42-25 in that game.
With the Olympic break looming, the Canadiens sit third in the Atlantic Division.
Carolina is three points out of a wild-card playoff spot.
Puck drops at a weird 6:10ish.
