TRURO - The Nutcracker will return to the Truro Dance Academy stage this year.
Dancers with the academy are well into rehearsals for the production, which took a break from the stage last year.
"The kids especially look forward to performing in The Nutcracker for years," said Margot Begin-Gillis, the dance academy's artistic director. "When these kids start ballet, they watch the older ones in the performance. The Nutcracker is the ballet that is pinnacle to them to show their technical skills they have learned."
With Emily Fultz and Sarah Fougere cast as Clara and Sugar Plum Fairy respectively, Begin-Gillis said they have worked hard over the years.
"Those two roles are very technically demanding and they have worked over the last four years to be able to handle these roles. It's not just dancing, but it's acting as well," she said.
The academy traditionally casts 35 to 40 dancers for The Nutcracker, some taking on many smaller roles to participate.
"Because we had so many that wanted to be a part of it this year, we asked them if they would mind only having a small role, and they said yes," said Begin-Gillis, noting this year's cast features 68 dancers between the ages of six and 19.
"It's a really big deal to these kids," added Melissa Page-Webster, an instructor working alongside Begin-Gillis. "It's great."
The story includes some toys that come to life, such as lambs, bunnies and foxes, instead of the traditional candy that children in the ballet receive.
"It's all with the same music, but the toys come to life," said Begin-Gillis.
The artistic director said The Nutcracker is a colourful ballet and is encouraging everyone to come out to see the performance.
"Even if someone is not familiar with the ballet, this is a story that everyone can relate to. There's a lot of colour and action, and adorable children."
This is the seventh year the dance academy has performed The Nutcracker, which is something the community has embraced, according to Begin-Gillis.
"I had a call from a woman in August who even said 'you don't know me, but,' and she said she was travelling to Calgary in December, but she didn't want to miss this show," she said. "It is a part of people's traditions."
The Nutcracker will be held at the Cobequid Educational Centre on Dec. 7 at 7 p.m. and Dec. 8 at 1:30 p.m. Tickets are available at MacQuarries Pharmasave on the Esplanade. Tickets are $15 for adults and $10 for seniors and students.

WATCH: NeNe Leakes brawls with Marlo Hampton on 'RHOA'
NeNe Leakes and former friend Marlo Hampton went at it on Sunday's "Real Housewives of Atlanta," turning an innocent day of sporting activities into a full-fledged brawl.
Hampton was upset she wasn't invited to be on Leakes' team for Cynthia Bailey's "Bailey Bowl," supposedly because she's now pals with Leakes' rival Kenya Moore, and began taunting Leakes during the field day events.
Hampton got close to Leakes and yelled, "I'm gonna beat your butts," and Leakes shot back, "Get the f**k off me."
Leakes then threw a water bottle in Hampton's direction, setting her off even more.
Hampton screamed, "B**ch, you're stupid. You are insecure… Tell the whole ATL why you're not talking to me? 'Cause I'm Kenya's friend?"

REYNOLDSBURG, Ohio (AP) -- A wood-boring beetle that can kill ash trees and has been found throughout Ohio now has been confirmed in two more eastern Ohio counties.
The Ohio Department of Agriculture says the emerald ash borer has been found in Columbiana and Guernsey counties. Officials are urging residents there to help keep the dark green beetle from spreading by purchasing and burning only local firewood and being careful when transporting firewood.
The department says the beetle has been found in most of the state, including Wayne National Forest in southeastern Ohio.
Ohio is under a federal quarantine that makes it illegal for people to move ash trees and hardwood firewood out of the state.

Although quite sophisticated in presentation, eating disorders nonetheless most simply reflect a way of coping with the stressors so associated with daily life. When feeling threatened and insecure, life or themselves not as perfect as expected, one turns to what is most appreciably thus within their immediate control. Through the manipulation of food, moods as well body image are altered to the albeit distorted, yet desired effect. As much of personal concern, there is also a strong social component, the person suffering not living completely in isolation. Counseling eating disorders offers help to both individual and family for arriving at better ways to face life's ongoing challenges.

Burberry Prorsum Spring 2013
Just as everyone was taking their seats at the Burberry Prorsum show, my iPhone trembled with that familiar little buzz. It was an e-mail from Christopher Bailey, the brand's chief creative officer, subject line: Welcome to Hyde Park, telling me that Burberry's live social stream was available before the show started, with him signing off: All the best, Christopher. Let me just clarify that there is no sharing of personal correspondence here; nothing for the Leveson Inquiry to worry about. And it's not at all unlikely that this message wasn't also personally addressed to every other person in the audience too. Bailey has been a tireless proponent (and fearless exponent) of the power of technology in building his vision of brand Burberry, using the notion of connectivity to further its place in the scheme of things. So there was something wonderfully human-scaled—old-fashioned, even (and not in a bad way)—about taking the idea of intimacy into the physical, not virtual, realm, with his Burberry Prorsum spring 2013 collection. For what must be the first time ever, it was suffused with, well, sex. A kind of playful, joyful sexiness, albeit, with Bailey working everything around the cape and the corset. (And the trench, of course, but more on that later.) The words that sprang to mind were "eroticized optimism."
How could they not, given that almost every look was seductively singing with color—from the dusky country lane in the autumn shades Bailey typically favors (bramble, hedgerow green) to the somewhat 1930s lingerie tones (oyster, shell pink) to a full-on explosion of glorious, bold jewel hues (orange, purple, hot pink), the prodigious use of satin and cotton sateen bringing each and every one vividly to life. This cape-and-corset exploration was a means for Bailey to bring his silhouette the closest it has ever been to the body, then let the capes (most barely grazing the upper arms, though some much longer) create a tension between their volumes and the sinuous lines drawn underneath—jackets that looked like they'd been stretched and seamed the body, or gleaming boned dresses that cleaved close to every curve they met. Other times, he injected volume into the satiny coats and jackets, blowing them up through the shoulders, before tightly controlling the fullness with a belted waist. The standouts of this frisky show were, as ever, the trench coats. It's quite astounding how much Bailey has been able to utilize them season after season as a vehicle for whatever vision he is pursuing. Next spring, you'll see some of the best he has done: luscious deep-pink satin, with curved detailing around the bust; emerald lace; green-gold feathers; and, azure and sapphire leather. All shared one quality—a sense of tactility that only made you want to get closer. Mission accomplished, I guess.

Keyshia Cole's husband, NBA Star Daniel Gibson, arrested for battery
Listen to Keyshia Cole on iHeartRadio
The husband of singer Keyshia Cole, NBA player Daniel Gibson, has been arrested over an alleged altercation at a nightclub earlier this month.
According to TMZ, Gibson was booked on the charge of second degree battery on Monday in New Orleans and later released on bond. Police say a male victim is accusing Gibson of breaking his jaw after a club fight that started as a verbal argument.
The basketball star issued a statement to TMZ after the news broke, saying it was "unfortunate" to see others taking advantage of "people who work hard for what they have achieved." He says he considers himself a role model for young men and he expects to be "fully vindicated" once "all the facts of the incident come out."
Gibson adds that the incident took place when he was out with his wife Keyshia at the Essence Music Festival. The two were married in 2011 and share a three-year-old son.

1. Numbers are absolute and not so easily refuted. Opinions are always important but numbers have an absolute value to them which demand respect. When 41 state polls are released in the elections final weekend and one candidate is only leading in 3 of those 41, we benefit from respecting the numbers more than partisan political pundits. Now that we have witnessed such clear disdain for the school of Nate Silver and blind allegiance to the school of Dick Morris and can speak to who came out on top of that battle, should we not also reevaluate the value of the numbers on climate change and other matters of science? The case of Silver v. Morris is a clear and measurable example of the conservative dismissal of empirical evidence in favor of, for lack of a better term, something else that makes me feel better.
2. If I ever go down in an airplane in the Andes and am facing below-zero temperatures, blizzards and avalanches, no food, no hope of rescue and the Abominable Snowman, I want STINGER on my plane! I just read through the RCP Electoral Map Thread and I have never experienced such unwavering confidence in light of such an obvious losing cause. You are a stalwart of leadership when facing a 50 point deficit in the 4th quarter! Even HR threw in the towel on Romney last week. The only one who was even remotely as confident as you was TRAP, who we all know well enough no comment needed. How do you avoid the reality of truth so well? I need you on my plane when it goes down. Blind allegiance to punditry is a cornerstone if not a foundation of the political problems in this country. Its not as much the leaders which creates our problems but the citizens who refuse to look at measurable reality and then hold leaders accountable for that which we can measure.
3. When unfortunate incidents such as Fast and Furious and Benghazi occur, we should investigate them. After we investigate them and have been unable to indict anyone of neither negligence nor criminal activity, we should grieve our losses and move forward. If only one of the many media outlets continues to litigate the case, we should eventually get around to questioning the media outlet not those who are not guilty of any crime.
4. Laws which are written and passed by the Legislative branches, signed off by the Executive branch and validated by the Supreme Court are American laws. When pursuant elections dont change these outcomes, these American laws are reinforced and solidified. Individuals can disagree with their preference for these laws but to call them anti-American is simply wrong. The Affordable Healthcare Act has stood up to and surpassed every single possible test in American politics.
5. Obama is not the worst President of all time as most of you have wanted to believe. Apparently, he also always had a chance at reelection. The whistling past the graveyard and rearranging the chairs on the deck of the titanic was all bluster. For Obama to be reelected after the unprecedented money spent against him and the negative imaging slung against him, is nothing short of astounding. The time has come for the conservatives to acknowledge the changing demographics of this country or they will become quickly irrelevant. The Tea Party movement funded directly by corporate interests and fueled by latent racist innuendo, has hurt the Republican Party and subsequently hurt the United States. Obamas reelection grades Obama as no worse than a good President at this juncture and is a direct indictment of the Tea Party as a failing entity in American politics. Lindsey Graham: If I hear anybody say it was because Romney wasnt conservative enough Im going to go nuts. Were not losing 95 percent of African-Americans and two-thirds of Hispanics and voters under 30 because were not being hard-ass enough.
The white, heterosexual male clinging desperately to his privileges is philosophically a sad sight but politically, it is and will continue to be a killer. We measured that outcome last night.
The above are essentially the underlying pinning of most of the discussions on this board that have occurred over the past several months and years of Obamas administration. Never before has it been so possible to point to the correct side of these discussions as it is now in a post Obama reelection:
Yes, Obama is legitimate.
Yes, A.C.A. is law of the land.
Yes, quick Fox News cover stories such as Fast and Furious, Benghazi, et al. while unfortunate, do occur in a dangerous world. The Rights perseveration with them speaks more to political partisanship than political integrity and prostitutes healthy investigative processes of our own government. .
Yes, the epic nature of Rights refusal to recognize science over faith, academia over bluster, empirical evidence over ideology and reality over mythology could not have been illustrated better than in the Rights absolute refusal to accept the polling data in lieu of desperate hope fed to them by the snake oil salesmen of conservative media. We can measure this now beyond the shadow do a doubt.
Yes, the electorate of this country is diverse and expanding. Just look at the crowd at Romneys concession speech vs. Obamas celebration speech. Those were two very different Americas. One is winning and one is losing. While the conservatives will be forced to expand their tent, it will only be because of the progressive force in this country that has always moved us forward and always moved us to a better place.

Intel has announced a new lineup of NAND flash-based solid state drives (SSDs) that utilize 34nm multi-level cell (MLC) NAND flash memory.
Intel said the move to 34nm will help lower prices of the SSDs up to 60% for PC makers and consumers thanks to the reduced die size and advanced engineering design.
The Intel X25-M mainstream SATA SSDs come in standard 2.5-inch and 1.8-inch sizes, and are available in 80GB and 160GB versions. The new SSDs will begin shipping on 34nm flash memory later in the third quarter of 2009.
New channel prices for the X25-M 80GB are US$225 for quantities up to 1,000 units (a 60% reduction from the original introduction price of US$595 a year ago), and the 160GB version is US$440 (down from US$945 at introduction), according to Intel.

I dont really understand where i should implement this.
In my login function for example, where do i put this?
if(isset($_POST['login'])) {
if(isset($_POST['username'])) {
if(isset($_POST['password'])) {
$username = $_POST['username'];
$query = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM users WHERE Username = '$username'") or die(mysql_error());
$user = mysql_fetch_array($query);
if(md5($_POST['password']) == $user['Password']) {
echo "Login successful!";
$_SESSION['user'] = $user['Username'];
header("Location: index.php");
} else {
echo "Please check your login details!";
} else {
echo "Please check your password!";
} else {
echo "Please check your username!";
} else {
echo "Please check that you filled out the login form!";
$username = escape($_POST['username']);
function escape( $str ) {
$str = stripslashes($str);
return mysql_real_escape_string($str);
First, read what the function does
The mysql_real_escape_string() function escapes data going into the database, and as such it should be invoked upon the data before it is used in the query. In your snippet above, it would be applied onto the $_POST['username'] variable whilst being assigned to the $username variable. You may also want to take a look into filtering your input data, where you can limit the user's input by validating the data entered. For example, if you'd only like usernames to contain alphanumerical characters, then you can use the ctype_alnum() function. These are basic concepts to enabling user input into your web application, and they are a necessity to learn.
In regards to your query, you could simplify the logic by querying for the username and password, and then use MySQL's COUNT() function to return the number of rows selected. This will also be a more optimised method, because we firstly aren't having to fetch all columns (using the * wildcard, which isn't even needed), and secondly we aren't requiring data to be returned; only the number of selected rows.
You may also want to look into a more modern API, such as MySQLi. In the MySQLi API, you can make use of another escaping method, prepared statements, along with much other functionality not seen in the original MySQL extension.
I'd personally avoid using the stripslashes() function, especially since this is user input, and we don't want to deform it before storing it for data persistence. It's a function that I'd only use if I knew that the HTML tags were well-formed (ie, stripping the already-parsed BBCode tags), and it would be applied upon data output. This is only really needed if you're looking to give a preview of part of the text, where the HTML styling is not needed/wanted. Otherwise, I'd still opt to go with htmlspecialchars().
I think you miss the difference between stripslashes and striptags stripslashes will just make sure that if magic_quotes_gpc is ON, we will not get a double-escape (for quotes).
Whoops, sorry. I misread it as striptags() for some reason or another. Because magic_quotes_gpc was deprecated in PHP 5.3, I don't really think it's overly necessary to strip the slashes beforehand though.
Also another reason to migrate away from the mysql_* extension is that the mysql_* extension is now deprecated as of the current version of php. An alternative extension to migrate over to is PDO
Hmm many people is telling me this, but my concern is, now i have spent ages building my little CMS, isnt it hard for me as a beginner in php and mysql to "convert" my code to mysli? Should i try to do it or check it out for my next project?
+1 for PDO. OOP is way better.
but my concern is, now i have spent ages building my little CMS, isnt it hard for me as a beginner in php and mysql to "convert" my code to mysli?
If it's your project, you know better what's there. However, PDO will show to you new limits
Converting it to the procedural MySQLi API is simple because both APIs are very similar. Take the following script written with the original MySQL extension (taken from a PHPMaster article):
$db = mysql_connect('host', 'username', 'password');
mysql_select_db('database', $db);
$clean['name'] = mysql_real_escape_string($name);
$clean['email'] = mysql_real_escape_string($email);
mysql_query("INSERT INTO table_name VALUES (NULL, '{$clean['name']}', '{$clean['email']}')");
mysql_query("UPDATE table_name SET name = 'Thomas' WHERE email = '{$clean['email']}'");
$result = mysql_query("SELECT name FROM table_name WHERE email = '{$clean['email']}'");
if ($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($result)) {
echo $row['name'];
} else {
echo 'No results found.';
And then convert it to the MySQLi API:
$db = mysqli_connect('host', 'username', 'password');
mysqli_select_db($db, 'database');
$clean['name'] = mysqli_real_escape_string($db, $name);
$clean['email'] = mysqli_real_escape_string($db, $email);
mysqli_query($db, "INSERT INTO table_name VALUES (NULL, '{$clean['name']}', '{$clean['email']}')");
mysqli_query($db, "UPDATE table_name SET name = 'Thomas' WHERE email = '{$clean['email']}'");
$result = mysqli_query($db, "SELECT name FROM table_name WHERE email = '{$clean['email']}'");
if ($row = mysqli_fetch_assoc($result)) {
echo $row['name'];
} else {
echo 'No results found.';
Aside from the changing of mysql_* to mysqli_*, the only real difference is that we are forced to pass the connection argument as the first parameter to the mysqli class functions (the first table), as opposed to the optional passing of it as the second argument in the original MySQL extension.
So is it pretty much adding and "i" to all "mysql" ???

Primary biliary cirrhosisPBC
Primary biliary cirrhosis is irritation and swelling (inflammation) of the bile ducts of the liver, which blocks the flow of bile. This obstruction damages liver cells and leads to scarring called cirrhosis.
The cause of inflamed bile ducts in the liver is not known. However, primary biliary cirrhosis is an autoimmune disorder. That means your body's immune system mistakenly attacks healthy tissue.
The disease more commonly affects middle-aged women.
Long-term bile obstruction is believed to lead to liver cirrhosis. The disease may be associated with autoimmune disorders such as:
- Celiac disease
- Raynaud's phenomenon
- Sicca syndrome (dry eyes or mouth)
- Thyroid disease
More than half of patients have no symptoms at the time of diagnosis. Symptoms usually come on gradually and may include:
- Abdominal pain
- Enlarged liver
- Fatigue
- Fatty deposits under the skin
- Fatty stools
- Itching
- Jaundice
- Soft yellow spots on the eyelid
Exams and Tests
The doctor or nurse will perform a physical exam.
The following tests can check to see if your liver is working properly:
- Albumin blood test
- Liver function tests (serum alkaline phosphatase is most important)
- Prothrombin time (PT)
- Cholesterol and lipoprotein blood tests
Other tests that can help diagnose this disease are:
- Elevated immunoglobulin M level in the blood
- Liver biopsy
- Anti-mitochondrial antibodies (results are positive in about 95% of cases)
The goal of treatment is to ease symptoms and prevent complications.
Cholestyramine (or colestipol) may reduce the itching. Ursodeoxycholic acid may improve removal of bile from the bloodstream may improve survival in some patients whohave taken it for 4 years.
Vitamin replacement therapy restores vitamins A, K, and D, which are lost in fatty stools. A calcium supplement should be added to prevent or treat soft, weakened bones (osteomalacia).
Liver transplant before liver failure occurs may be successful.
Outlook (Prognosis)
The outcome can vary. If the condition is not treated, most patients will need a liver transplant to prevent death from this condition. About a quarter of patients who've had the disease for 10 years will experience liver failure. Doctors can now use a statistical model to predict the best time to do the transplant.
Possible Complications
Progressive cirrhosis can lead to liver failure. Complications can include:
- Bleeding
- Damage to the brain (encephalopathy)
- Fluid and electrolyte imbalance
- Kidney failure
- Malabsorption
- Malnutrition
- Soft bones (osteomalacia)
When to Contact a Medical Professional
Call your health care provider if you have:
- Abdominal swelling
- Blood in the stools
- Confusion
- Jaundice
- Itching of the skin that does not go away and is not related to other causes
- Vomiting blood

Raiders running back Darren McFadden seems close to playing after a three-game absence due to a high ankle sprain. McFadden practiced Wednesday for the first time since getting hurt. Marcel Reece has picked up a lot of the slack while McFadden has been out, and he gained at least 100 yards from scimmage in each of those three games. McFadden rushed for 455 yards and two touchdowns in his first eight games this season.
Fantasy Analysis:
Mike Goodson , who is also coming off a high ankle sprain, also practiced, so the Raiders will apparently have the cupboard full against the Browns. A few weeks ago, I couldn't wait for McFadden to return. But since then, I've picked up Reece and now I don't want Run-DMc to come back. Reece has looked much better in the last few weeks than McFadden has at any time this year. And now we're probably going to be looking at some sort of timeshare with those two runners. I'm guessing McFadden will get the early down work if he plays, but this will be an interesting situation to watch this weekend.

http://www.mmafighting.com/2012/11/1...best-and-worstWorst Judging in the Known Universe: Bass Singh, Aaron Chatfield
As long as judging in mixed martial arts reminds us of the woeful saga of replacement refereeing in the NFL and will continue to do so seemingly without end, bellyaching about its cause seems like a waste of time. Still, it's worth taking inventory of which judges do a poor job, event by event.
From Saturday, we have two entrants into the comically bad judging hall of fame. Bass Singh somehow managed to score Alex Caceres vs. Motonobu Tezuka 29-28 for Tezuka. The other two judges couldn't even give Tezuka a single round, nor anyone else capable of judging MMA contests. Tezuka was hugely outstruck in all three frames, did nothing with the one takedown he earned in each of the first two rounds and had a less than 25 percent success rate on takedown attempts, but hey, who's counting?
Aaron Chatfield went the other direction. He admittedly got the decision right between Takeya Mizugaki and Jeff Hougland, but got a tad bit overboard. Chatfield scored the second and third rounds as 10-8 frames. Admittedly, they were dominant, but it's hard to see either of them as meeting that special threshold. Hougland was covering up in defensive postures and trying for submissions for long portions of the round. Those are not hallmarks of 10-8 drubbings. Again, he ultimately made the right call in terms of who won or lost (although, it's hard to see how anyone couldn't in this particular scenario) and I admire in the courage to use a 10-8 score. But there's criteria for them and these rounds didn't really meet them, especially since Hougland was never really rocked and Mizugaki almost exclusively worked from Hougland's guard.
he's awful! DEAL WITH IT
Here's the map/directions to get there - when you find the place that you find on the map and can't seem to spot it (no signs) - it's right above the small currency exchange place. You need to walk down the side of it into the building the exchange place sticks out of and the lift is there on the right if I remember correctly.
I think it's the 4th floor but I could be wrong. It's been about 6 months since I was there.
Coffee drinker, prefer Pepsi and I'm kind of a big deal.
Thanks very much, Xanthic - it's appreciated.
If you end up back there at some point, there's a great bar not far from there called Ned Kelly's Last Stand (or at least, there was last time I was there). I spent New Year's Eve in there once, and it was epic! They have a brass band of sorts that plays most nights. It's on Ashley Road, almost opposite the Ka Ka Lok takeaway on the corner.
I just want you to stop being so bad. and yeah the 10-8's are handed out like free toy in a happy meal with you. How can 2 judges see it 10-9 consistently but you see it 10-8? People only consider 10-8 rounds when a fighter has been dropped and dominated with significant damage like cuts
Also I'm not the one who's caught on to your really bad decisions. Many sites in the U.S and people on forums say the same thing now. Maybe you should look to do a better job instead of crying about people saying your doing a bad job.
I don't wish you dead Aaron
If Aaron's such a bad judge , how come promoters keep using him?
I do know Aaron and I consider him to be a friend; but I would still ask this question whoever he was
Any opinions I express on this forum are entirely personal opinions and it should not be assumed that they reflect the official view of any organisations I am connected with
I actually think 10-9s are almost woefully overused. I've often seen people being given 9s when they've offered little resilience to what's being thrown at them and offered nothing in return. The scoring system is such that it's completely open to individual interpretation, which is probably why there are three judges instead of the fight being scored by the referee.

Financial Aid Guidance Key to Helping Basic Skills Students Access Postsecondary Education
Mar 23, 2011
Research shows that a significant percent of low-income students who are eligible for student aid don't take the required steps to access it. One way to ensure more of these students complete postsecondary education is to provide support in navigating the state and federal financial aid process.
Students in basic skills services, such as adult education and developmental education, are very often low-income and eligible for a wide variety of supports. To access this support, however, they must complete the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA). Although the application is free, a high percent of low-income adult students do not apply for aid, especially those who do not have dependents. A 2008 study from the Advisory Committee on Student Financial Assistance found that nearly one in three of the poorest independent students without dependents did not apply for aid. About one in six of the poorest student parents did not apply.
These numbers can be boosted and more students may access the resources available to them when local institutions support students going through the complex financial aid process.
Promising local examples of these efforts include:
In Ohio, Canton City Schools Adult Basic Education has a Transitions Facilitator who helps students understand the financial aid process and prepare their paperwork. The Transitions Facilitator distributes fact sheets on filling out the FAFSA and holds office hours during which students get one-on-one assistance filling out their forms. The facilitator also pushes students to complete these forms around tax time so they prepare them well in advance of institutional deadlines.
In Texas, the community-based organization Community Action has career counselors who partner with a local community college to help students to fill out their FAFSA applications. The counselor holds monthly FAFSA workshops in a computer lab where students can complete their FAFSA in real time. The workshop attendees are typically referred by adult education programs or family advocates at local Head Start Centers. Students are instructed to come prepared and bring their income tax information for themselves and/or parents. A representative from the local community college also attends to field questions about the college enrollment process.

More corruption charges
(Cleveland) - A 65-count superseding indictment was filed today charging the former director of the Cleveland VA Medical Centers with a scheme to enrich himself and his fellow suspects by working as a consultant.
Investigators say 61 year old William Montague of Brecksville took money from a design firm pursuing more than $1 billion in VA contracts, and shared confidential information about VA construction projects while still employed by the VA.
Montague is now charged with conspiracy to commit honest services fraud, Hobbs Act conspiracy, violating the Hobbs Act and additional counts of mail and wire fraud.
"As a Veterans Affairs Medical Center Director, William Montague misled staff and misused his position to enrich himself and businesses pursuing contracts with the Veterans Administration," said Stephen D. Anthony, Special Agent in Charge of the Federal Bureau of Investigation's Cleveland Office. "The new charges against Montague reflect law enforcement's continued dedication to root out corruption at any level."
"VA directors who use their official position for personal enrichment will be held to account," said Gavin McClaren, United States Department of Veterans Affairs - Office of Inspector General, Resident Agent in Charge, Cleveland. "Our nation's veterans deserve public officials and contracts who serve veterans' needs and not their own."
Montague served as director of the Cleveland VA Medical Center from 1995 until Feb. 3, 2010. On March 11, 2011, Montague began working as director of the Dayton VA Medical Center, a position he held through Dec. 17, 2011, according to the indictment.
investigators claim the superseding indictment details interactions between Montague and a company identified as Business 75, an integrated design firm with offices throughout the United States, including New York, Illinois, Virginia, Missouri and California.
The company performed work for the VA directly and through its participation in joint ventures and other teaming agreements, according to the indictment.

About the Department of Technology
The Department of Technology supports the UMES Land Grant mission by offering three unique undergraduate programs that are available at the University of Maryland Eastern Shore. They are: (1) Construction Management Technology (2) Engineering Technology and (3) Technology Education. A graduate program approved by the Maryland Higher Education Commission (also unique in the University System) offers the M.Ed. degree in Career and Technology Education. Graduates qualify for professional/ technical employment in industry with construction management firms, manufacturing firms, and in public education. Employment and career opportunities for students in each major are excellent.
Located in the 50,000 sq. ft. Arts and Technologies Center, the department has seven full-time faculty and approximately 150 full-time undergraduate students. About 75 part-time students take courses at the Maryland Center for Career and Technology Education Studies located at the Baltimore Museum of Industry. Thirty-five students are enrolled in the graduate program. The department also offers Construction Management Technology at the Universities at Shady Grove as an upper division part-time program where approximately 35 students are enrolled. Several adjunct faculty are employed as needed each semester to teach courses on campus and at off-campus sites. Enrollment has been increasing at the rate of approximately 5 to 10 percent per year over the past five years. The growth rate in Engineering Technology and Construction Management Technology has increased.
Partnerships have been established with construction and manufacturing industries throughout the state via industry advisory councils, student internships, field trips, and scholarship support. Partnerships have also been established with local educational agencies and the Maryland State Department of Education, Division of Career Technology and Adult Learning.
Future plans for the undergraduate program in Construction Management Technology include strengthening the Student Chapter of the National Association of Home Builders (NAHB). Program enhancement funding to support student recruitment and program growth was received from NAHB last year. In addition, the Construction Management Technology Program is accredited by The American Council for Construction Education (ACCE). Initial accreditation was granted by ACCE in 1991. The primary goal of ACCE is the promotion and continued improvement of construction education programs in colleges and universities by ensuring they meet a stringent set of academic and professional standards. The UMES Construction Management Technology Program was the first ACCE accredited program at a Historically Black Institution in the United States.
Planning is now underway to begin the process of accrediting the Engineering Technology Program. The first step is to review the curriculum in light of standards and criteria set by the Accrediting Board for Engineering and Technology (ABET). In addition, a program advisory committee consisting of educators and professionals will be formed to support accreditation of Engineering Technology. Student support through the Engineering Technology Society will also be needed. The department will keep the university and community informed of progress regarding this important program development effort.
The Technology Education program is accredited by the National Council for Accreditation in Teacher Education (NCATE). The specialty area report for reaffirmation of accreditation was recently approved by NCATE. Several new initiatives are being planned for Technology Education to increase enrollment and to enhance the curriculum including a new faculty member, new recruitment strategies, and on-line course offerings.
The department continues to receive grants and scholarship support from public and private sources. During the past two years, The Whiting Turner Contracting Company of Baltimore, Maryland, Essex Construction of Upper Marlboro, Maryland, Winchester Homes of Bethesda, Maryland and The Associated Builders and Contractors of the Eastern Shore have established endowments for the Construction Management Program. Endowed scholarships are also available for Engineering Technology and Technology Education. During the academic year faculty will devote more energy to outreach efforts to improve partnerships with government and industry.
Concerning new instructional equipment and materials, the department recently received new computers and CAD software for the Computer Aided Engineering Laboratory. In addition, the new Communication and Microwave Technology Laboratory has the potential to become one of the most advanced communications instructional facilities in the State. Curriculum and equipment enhancements are ongoing priorities for improvement of the Electrical and Mechanical options in Engineering Technology.
The Department of Technology is committed to providing the most up-to-date instruction for students with emphasis on technical applications, systems operation, educational services, and management in the fields of construction, engineering technology, and technical education. Faculty are also engaged in service to the university and local community and scholarly pursuits including: research and publication in recognized professional journals, attending and presenting papers at professional meetings, and grant proposal writing projects. Given the strong and continuing support from internal and external sources, the future for the Department appears to be very bright.

it's uriah faber in drag.
you wonder how much PED she took in the past to look like a dude.
ronda will destroy her and her 10 minutes of fame will be over.
Uhh.. and where are the ass-shots of Rousey and Carmouche, please?
Thank you
I'm so excited for all the fights that are about to start, but mostly for the main event! I normally just watch the fights at one of DISH's call centers where I work, but I wanted to make sure to record the first real women of UFC, so I took the night off. I think both Carmouche and Rousey are tremendous fighters, and I want to have this fight saved for a long time. I can hold 1,250 SD or 450 HD hours worth of content on my DISH Hopper, so I know that I'll be able to revisit this moment in UFC history whenever I want without ever having to delete it to make more room to record stuff.

CARLSTADT, NJ -- A large brush fire burning here this week came within a few hundred feet of the headquarters of Betson Enterprises, the nation's largest amusement, jukebox and vending machine distributor. The fire, now contained, broke out on Wednesday afternoon.
Betson is located at 303 Paterson Plank Rd., close to where emergency crews where battling the blaze. According Betson executive vice-president Bob Boals, the distributorship did not experience any disruptions in service this week due to the fire, which generated large plumes of black smoke visible from the New Jersey Turnpike in Middlesex County, highways in Essex County and parts of Manhattan.
Fire companies from several towns responded. "The fire departments did an excellent job in containing the fire," said Boals, who added that the fire is now expected to burn out on its own.
Betson's first quarter was among the busiest in recent years, Boals noted. "Jukebox, amusement and even vending machine sales are improving over the last year, which was also strong," he said. The New Jersey office is particularly busy this month fulfilling orders for the arcades along the state's shoreline.

Martinez unfazed by Texas heat
Cards prospect hurls six strong innings, drops ERA to 2.30
By Jonathan Raymond / Special to MLB.com | July 14, 2012 7:52 PM ET
The Cardinals' No. 2 prospect gave up a run on two hits over six innings Saturday night as Springfield shut down Northwest Arkansas, 5-1.
Martinez (2-2) arrived from Palm Beach about a month ago and has yet to allow more than two earned runs in a Texas League start. Saturday's effort was the second straight outing in which he's gone six innings and yielded just one run.
"He's got a good arm, a nice and easy delivery. The ball really jumps out of his hand," Springfield manager Mike Shildt said. "He's really been able to throw strikes with the fastball, keep the ball down, and he's been effective with both his four- and two-seamer. With that velocity he has, it's a real good pitch."
After giving up a solo homer to Carlo Testa with two outs in the second, Martinez allowed only three more baserunners on an error, a walk and a single. He ended up issuing two free passes while striking out three.
Martinez, MLB.com's No. 23 overall prospect, was good in the Florida State League, but he's been a little bit better in transitioning to Double-A. He was 2-2 with a 3.00 ERA and 34 strikeouts over 33 innings at Palm Beach.
The 19-year-old right-hander has a 2.30 ERA and 21 strikeouts against six walks over 27 1/3 innings in six starts with Springfield.
Shildt said he wasn't too surprised one of the Cardinals' most prized arms has adapted as quickly as he has to his new surroundings.
"We're optimistic by nature here and he has ability," he added. "When a guy has ability, we're just trying to get him to understand how to use it. [Pitching coach Bryan Eversgerd] has got a good plan with him, the catchers are on the same plan, so we're just letting him pitch and letting his talent play."
So far, it has.
In 13 starts across the two levels, the native of the Dominican Republic is 4-4 with a 2.69 ERA, 55 strikeouts and only 16 walks over 60 1/3 innings. He's also surrendered just one home run.
It's a departure from last season, when Martinez posted a 2.33 ERA in eight starts at Class A Quad Cities, then made the jump to the FSL, where he found things more difficult. In 10 starts with Palm Beach last summer, he had a 5.28 ERA and walked 30 while fanning 48 in 46 innings.
Shildt cited Martinez's maturity for his more successful adjustment this year.
"The one thing that's been impressive is he's been really aggressive, competed well," he said. "He's done the little things we like to see -- held his runners, fielded his position, just gone about things in a positive way."
Oscar Taveras went 3-for-3 in support of Martinez, giving the No. 3 Cardinals prospect a .395 average in nine games this month. Chris Swauger chipped in a two-run homer.

Finalized May 2017
Advisor: DAVID DEHNEL, Professor (Political Science)
B.A., Wisconsin; M.A., Ph.D., Minnesota
The key to preparing for law school is a broad and demanding liberal arts education. Such an education develops the skills needed for graduate study in law: the ability to think critically, to read and comprehend difficult material, to write and speak clearly and effectively, to do research and develop and defend an argument. Law schools do not specify a preference for any particular undergraduate major. Accordingly, Augustana does not offer a pre-law major, but offers relevant courses and pre-law advising to assist students majoring in any field.
To develop skills needed for law school and the Law School Admission Test (LSAT), students are encouraged to take:
ENGL-201 The Writing Process
PHIL-110 Critical Reasoning
COMM-104 Public Speaking or COMM-204 Argumentation and Oral Advocacy
To explore the role of lawyers in society and learn how to analyze court cases, students are encouraged to take:
POLS-260 The Legal System
POLS-361 Constitutional Law I and POLS-362 Constitutional Law II
Students with an interest in the study of law may also wish to consider:
PHIL-325 Philosophy of Law
SOC-361 Crime and Society
All students considering a law-related career should contact the pre-law advisor.
Admission to law school is highly competitive. For a good chance of admission to an accredited law school, students generally need a grade average of B or better and an LSAT score above the median. In addition to strong grades and LSAT scores, law schools seek students who engage in activities that demonstrate the qualities of leadership and citizenship. Additional information is available from the advisor.

Mimosa & MoFo Saturday
Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the opening of the VVC Cocktail Lounge. We have soft jazz, sophisticated cocktails and the finest vegan hors d'oeuvres heading your way. Since it's still early in the day, I wanted to start us off with something simple, the classic mimosa.
Combine: equal parts orange or grapefruit juice – the fresher the better – and champagne or sparkling wine.
Garnish suggestions: citrus peel, sliced peach, berries
Vegan to vegan, do your best to seek out and encourage vegan-friendly sparkling wine. Just like normal wine, many vineyards use animal ingredients in the filtration process, but not all. Your odds of finding vegan-friendly bubbles are usually higher when you look for Prosecco, and it's just as lovely.
Check out the handy dandy Barnivore for more. You're better than Cooks and Adnre, anyway.

'"There's no secret that my first full year as owner (2003-04) we lost $10 million," Golisano said. "You can't do that many more years after one. Before this new agreement, 19 of 30 teams were losing money and there was the chance of two or three teams dropping off every year. But we have a financial system now that makes every team viable."'

The wait for the Lakers to restore their full backcourt continues.
Steve Nash and Steve Blake will sit out when the Lakers (7-7) host the Indiana Pacers (6-8) tonight at Staples Center.
Nash, who has missed 12 games because of a small, non-displaced fracture in his left fibula, was scheduled to receive an MRI on Monday. The Lakers canceled those plans so Nash could participate in on-court drills and work out with strength and conditioning coach Tim DiFrancesco.
Blake, who sat out Monday's practice in favor of more therapy on his lower abdominal strain, has missed the past seven games.
"He's getting better every day," Lakers coach Mike D'Antoni said of Nash. "When he's able to withstand some up-and-down he'll play."
D'Antoni frequently has cited Nash's absence as a huge reason why the Lakers haven't scored more than 100 points in three of the four games he's coached. With the Lakers guard logging two MVP seasons during their four seasons together in Phoenix, D'Antoni described Nash as "the engine that drives things forward."
In his absence, Darius Morris and Chris Duhon have split point-guard duties. Kobe Bryant also increased his ball-handling responsibilities.
But D'Antoni said he told Nash and Blake not to rush back.
"It doesn't matter when (they return)," D'Antoni said. "When they play, they need to be ready to roll."
Playing through pain
Lakers forward Pau Gasol revealed tendinitis emerged in both of his knees during training camp.
"I play through it and try to keep it under control," Gasol said. "It's a little limiting."
Instead of sitting out any games, Gasol has worn bands over both knees to minimize the swelling and pain.
"You lose a little bit of explosiveness and quickness and athleticism," said Gasol, who has averaged 13.4 points on 43.4 percent shooting and 9.1 rebounds in 36 minutes per game. "It's been under control."
Odd man out
For the second time in his career, it appears Jordan Hill won't play much under D'Antoni.
In the past two games, Hill has played only 14 total minutes to make room for an emerging Antawn Jamison. His switch to power forward resulted in two consecutive double-digit efforts. Hill also played his rookie season under D'Antoni in the 2008-09 campaign for the New York Knicks, where he averaged only four points in 10.5 minutes through 24 games before getting traded to the Houston Rockets.
"There will be room for Jordan," D'Antoni said. "But his role has changed."
D'Antoni noted Hill's improvement in rebounding since coaching him in New York. D'Antoni said he wants his bench to feature smaller players in order to enhance their outside shooting and make room for Dwight Howard and Gasol inside.
"He's going to do what he feels will win games," said Hill, who has averaged six points in 15 minutes per game this season. "I respect him for that."

Find the safest and most cost-effective drugs for this condition.
Electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) is commonly called shock treatment. It has received bad press, in part for its potential memory-depleting effect. Since its introduction in the 1930s, ECT has been significantly refined, and is now considered an effective and safe treatment for severe depression in the appropriate situation. It is especially effective for patients with severe depression who experience delusions and hallucinations. Maintenance ECT may also help prevent relapse.
Candidates for ECT. ECT may be helpful for the following patients with severe depression:
The Procedure. In general, hospitalization is not necessary. ECT involves the following steps:
Side Effects. Side effects of ECT may include temporary confusion, memory lapses, headache, nausea, muscle soreness, and heart disturbances. Concerns about permanent memory loss appear to be unfounded.
The ECT procedure affects heart rate and blood pressure. Doctors should perform a medical evaluation of patients before they receive ECT. Patients, (especially those who are elderly), who have high blood pressure, atrial fibrillation, asthma, or other heart or lung problems may be at increased risk for heart-related side effects.
Repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) uses high frequency magnetic pulses that target affected areas of the brain. It is generally regarded as a second line treatment after ECT. Researchers are continuing to refine rTMS techniques to attempt to improve treatment outcomes.
An implantable deep brain stimulation device (Reclaim), similar to a pacemaker and devices used for treating movement disorders like Parkinson's disease, has been approved for treatment of severe obsessive-compulsive disorder. It is currently in clinical trials for treatment-resistant depression. The device uses four electrodes that are surgically implanted into the brain and connected to a small generator that is implanted near the abdomen or collar bone. The generator delivers precisely controlled electrical pulses to target specific areas of the brain.
Vagus nerve stimulation (VNS) is a procedure that is effective for certain patients with epilepsy, and is now showing some success in patients with treatment-resistant depression
VNS involves implanting a battery-powered device under the skin in the upper left of the chest. The neurologist programs the device to deliver mild electrical stimulation to the vagus nerve. The two vagus nerves are the longest nerves in the body. They run along each side of the neck, then down the esophagus to the gastrointestinal tract. The vagus nerve travels to areas of the brain that control functions such as sleep and mood.
Studies report response rates of 35 - 46% in appropriate candidates with treatment-resistant depression. VNS is approved by the FDA for long-term treatment of chronic depression in adults who have not responded to typical treatments for their major depressive episode. Patients who use VNS may continue to show improvement in both their depression symptoms and quality of life.
Vagal stimulation can cause shortness of breath, hoarseness, sore throat, coughing, ear and throat pain, or nausea and vomiting. These side effects can be reduced or eliminated by reducing the intensity of stimulation. Long-term studies on patients with epilepsy have reported no serious adverse side effects, although the treatment may cause lung function deterioration in some people with existing lung disease.
Phototherapy is recommended as treatment for seasonal affective disorder (SAD), particularly for patients who do not wish to try antidepressants.
The Procedure. The procedure is noninvasive and simple. It is best performed immediately after waking in the morning. The patient sits a few feet away from a box-like device that emits very bright fluorescent light (10,000 lux) for about 30 minutes every day.
Some people report mood improvement as early as 2 days after treatment. In others, depression may not lift for 3 - 4 weeks. If no improvement is experienced after that, depressive symptoms will be unlikely to respond to phototherapy. Phototherapy may work best when combined with cognitive behavioral therapy.
Side Effects. Side effects include headache, eye strain, and irritability, although these symptoms tend to disappear within a week. Patients taking light-sensitive drugs (such as those used for psoriasis), certain antibiotics, or antipsychotic drugs should not use light therapy. Patients should be examined by an ophthalmologist before undergoing this treatment.
A surgical technique called cingulotomy interrupts the cingulate gyrus, a bundle of nerve fibers in the front of the brain, by applying heat or cold. A variation of this procedure using MRI scans to guide the surgeon has been shown to produce long-term improvement in patients with severe intractable depression. The procedure is generally safe with few serious complications. It does not affect intellect or memory.

Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of America in Congress assembled, That the Secretary of the Interior is authorized to provide, in accordance with the terms of this Act, for the management and disposition of any interest of the United States in those lands which were reconveyed to the United States by deeds of conveyance executed on November 29, 1950, by the principal chief of the Choctaw Nation and the governor of the Chickasaw Nation, or which have been, or may be, reconveyed to the United States by any further and supplemental conveyances made under the authority of the Interior Department Appropriation Act of June 28, 1944 (58 Stat. 463, 483), the joint resolution of June 24, 1948 (62 Stat. 596), and the First Deficiency Appropriation Act of May 24, 1949 (63 Stat. 76, 84).
(a) The Secretary of the Interior, in order to facilitate the administration and management of the lands, to remove any clouds on the titles of any persons to interests in such lands, or to establish definite boundaries for such lands, may (1) sell any tract of the lands at public sale to the highest responsible bidder, or at private sale; or (2) relinquish any tract of such lands, with or without compensation, to any person having a legal or equitable interest therein. In passing upon a proposed disposition of any tract of land under this subsection, the Secretary shall take into account the uses to which the tract involved is most suited and whether it may be better utilized in private ownership.
(b) In selling any tract under subsection (a) of this section, the Secretary shall make such provision as he may deem appropriate to give a preference right to any occupant of the tract who has, or whose predecessors in interest have, lawfully and continuously occupied the tract for home, business, or school purposes since April 30, 1949, or earlier. The Secretary shall give any occupant who is lawfully in possession of a tract at the time of its offer for sale, an appropriate period within which such occupant may remove improvements constructed by him or by his predecessors in interest, or may elect to receive compensation for such improvements from the successful purchaser of the tract in an amount equal to the appraised value of the improvements as determined by the Secretary.
(c) In disposing of an interest in any tract under this Act, the Secretary may also give a preference right, when he deems it appropriate, to any owner of an interest in any land adjoining the tract to be disposed.
(a) The Secretary may sell or lease any tract under the provisions of the Act of June 4, 1954 (68 Stat. 173; 43 U. S. C., sec. 869, and the following), to the State of Oklahoma or any other agency or organization qualified under that Act.
(b) Upon the filing of an application by an appropriate local governing body within two years after the first issuance of regulations under this Act, the Secretary of the Interior may relinquish or convey to such body, without compensation, the surface rights to any tract of the lands which, prior to the transfer of title to the United States, was set apart for streets, alleys, or other public purposes, even though not legally dedicated to such purposes.
(a) The Secretary of the Interior shall issue quitclaim deeds for any lands disposed of under section 2 or section 3 (b) of this Act. The Secretary shall fix through appraisal the minimum price to be paid for lands that are offered for sale under subsection (a) (1) of section 2. If any lands are relinquished under subsection (a) (2) of
Page 711
section 2, without compensation, the Secretary shall require the grantee to pay a service charge of not less than $10.
(b) Any deed for lands disposed of under section 2 of this Act shall contain a reservation to the United States of all minerals deposits, together with the right to prospect for, mine, and remove the same under applicable provisions of law. Any deed for lands disposed of under this Act shall contain any provision which the Secretary determines is necessary in order to protect the rights of the holders of existing interests in the lands, or to permit access to any of the lands in which the Federal Government retains an interest.
(c) If a survey is necessary to describe properly any lands that are to be disposed of under this Act, the Secretary shall require the proposed grantee to pay the proportionate cost of such survey.
The Secretary of the Interior may issue easements, leases, or permits for the development and use of nonmineral resources of the lands or may sell such resources.
The Secretary of the Interior may accept contributions or donations of money, services, and property to further the provisions of this Act. Moneys received under this section shall be covered into the Treasury and are hereby appropriated and made available until expended, as the Secretary may direct, for payment of expenses incident to the function toward the administration of which the contributions were made and for refunds to contributors of amounts contributed by them in excess of their appropriate share of such expenses, as determined by the Secretary.
The Secretary of the Interior may issue such regulations as may be necessary or appropriate to carry out the provisions of this Act, including regulations providing for the protection of the surface and other nonmineral values of lands disposed of under this Act whenever any mineral rights reserved to the United States are exercised by it or under its authority.
All moneys realized under the provisions of this Act, except moneys received under the provisions of section 6, shall be deposited in the Treasury as miscellaneous receipts.
Approved, August 3, 1955.

Or better: No soulmates in Twilight...
I don't think they have really 'soulmate' in Twilight. I mean:
-Carlisle has changed Esme because she was already considered like dead and he remembered her. He changed Rosalie because he wanted a mate for Edward and she was dying anyway.
-Rosalie wanted Carlisle to change Emmett because he looked like Vera's baby.
-Alice SAW her with Jasper but I'm pretty sure she never ask herself if the fact that she sees Jasper only mean that he will become a Cullen. I wonder if she saw herself married to Jasper before or after she convinces herself that he's her soulmate. Because Alice's visions depend on what people choose, and that includes her too.
-And since Bella asked Alice for visions of her future, she convinces herself that it was her decision and 'Well, if Alice said so, it means that it's obviously true.' (and I don't have to think by myself)
-Emily gave a chance to Sam AFTER he hurt her. I mean, do you really fall in love with a man who put you in hospital? Does she has any choice? When she made it, she finished with scars. And EVERYONE who know about wolfs said to her that it can't be undone. She tied to him forever and can't say nothing at all.
-Kim was so in love with Jared that, obviously, she won't say no, even if he didn't care at all about her before imprinting. I found that sad. And Kim seems a little weak. She had a crush on Jared and never tried to talk to him? I'm a shy girl but, yes, I could talk to guys that I had a crush on.
-Rachel... Well, she found herself tied with a man who have anger problems. That will make it difficult for them to leave La Push. Because, even if Rachel loves her family, she left for a reason. I'm pretty sure it would be years before they can leave La Push and I'm not sure they'll go too far away.
-Claire... Honestly? A 2 years old girl? She will never be able to experience thing like any other teens and women. It's like a arranged marriage. Eww...
-Renesmee... Imprinted by a wolf who loved her mother first. And having no choice at all because between Jacob, Alice who decide for everyone, and her parents. Poor child. And let's no forget that she has Bella's eyes. And the imprinting is made during eye-contact.
I'm pretty sure imprinting is a curse from Utlapa...

Hi everyone,

Hi there,
I've got an issue with 3 websites built with DMS since I migrated them from http to https that I need help with please.
When any changes are made - e.g. new posts added or existing posts amended - certain sections of the live site seem to break e.g. image headers hang and don't load (b/g on canvas section), sliders hang and don't load (Revslider), flipper section doesn't load.
Logging in and then clicking 'Edit the site using DMS' seems to fix the problem. Often if I try to open up another browser window to edit the site / re publish I'm unable to as the page wont load / hangs while trying to load.
Any ideas how to fix this? On a couple of the sites I've installed a caching plugin as I thought it might be a loading speed issue but it's still happening.
Website URL's can be provided privately.
Many thanks in advance.

I found this topic
which talks about a similar issue I am having, but a little different. Hope someone can help me out.
Best way to see the problem is to view http://cassclayton.com/ on Safari (Mac) compared to Firefox or Chrome. You will see the banner just under the fixed menubar has a gap between the menubar and top of the banner. Looking at Inspector, I found:

and indeed it seems the jquery is not always working consistently. For instance, if you simply refresh the page in Safari, it will loose the gap and all looks fine, so is it a browser cache issue that is interacting with the jquery? I do have W3 Total Cache installed. There must be a way to tell the code to make sure jquery is up and running and available to do it's majic?
And perhaps there is just a better way to do this banner? Originally I tried several DMS sections and used the banner image as background, etc... Kept running into problems with resizing and the left/right parts of the image were getting chopped off. It is important the whole image show, so currently I just use a NextBox section with this code:

and it looks the way it should. Is there a better way to place a banner graphic under a fixed navbar and make sure the whole banner graphic displays regardless of screensize?

I desperately need to deactivate the responsive function on mobile for reasons. It looks so messy with the responsive look on mobile and not navigating or informative at all as it is.
I searched for solutions online and tries some of those that I found but nothing worked out. Also I found a previous post on this forum says that this theme pagelines DMS is not meant to be build to deactivate the responsive function...
Also tried with widget such as WPtouch to edit the mobile look a little more informative but as I am using "single page" theme on pagelines, the frontpage(main page) never appears on those app.
Seems like not compatible?
If there is no way to deactivate responsive function or I'll have to recreate another page just dedicated for a mobile page? or change the theme completely and build a page from scratch?
I have been searching for this for two days already...
Could anyone wise and kind out there, please help me?

How long breast milk lasts?
Hi! I'm just curious about breastfeeding. I know that there are babies who drink less breast milk than others. So I'd like to know if the baby happens to feed less but you have a lot of breast milk left that you have pumped out and stored in a feeding bottle, how many days does a bottle of refrigerated breast milk usually lasts?

One of the most wonderful things about breastfeeding is that the breast produces what the baby demands, and adjusts when the baby wants more or less.
Typically most babies will demand more than less. If a mum has a feverish baby she will put her baby to the breast often in order to keep the baby well hydrated. If bub is going through a growth spurt, he will suckle at the breast more, and within about 24 hours, the breast will start producing more milk to adjust to baby's needs.
But sometimes we do need to pump, and that's usually if mum is going to be away from bub for more than 2 hours, or if mum is having a difficult time getting breastfeeding well established (if bub doesn't latch well, etc.).
In that case, the following are recommendations from La Leche League, International.
Breastmilk can be safely stored...
-At room temperature for 4 hours (ideal) to 6 hours (acceptable), some sources state up to 8 hours is acceptable.
-In the fridge for 3 days (ideal) to 8 days (acceptable).
-In the freezer for 6 months (ideal) up to 12 months (acceptable).
Hope this helps.
Warm regards,

Hi there, Kate!
Thanks for the very helpful information you gave me. This will surely equip me in preparing myself and my partner for pregnancy and parenthood. I really appreciate sharing these things to me and to everyone else here in the forum.
