Jimmie broke and no chance at another title!
Congrats to Roger Penske and Dodge. Great story there.
And Dodge is leaving NASCAR. :bang2:
That's why it's a great story. Not one mechanical breakdown for a Dodge engine this year. Unreal for a lame duck operation. Very happy for Roger. Brad - eh - he's a goof.
The 48 didn't win it all so that was good.
The ignorant brass not suspending the 24 for this race and then him winning is bad.
Yea, he is a goofy kid.
Congrats on Brad. Good kid.
suspending Gordon would have just been more of the sissyfication of Nascar, him wrecking some idiot and then winning the next week is awesome for Nascar.
Heck Ya! Rainbow Warrior only hasn't won at one track in the Sprint Cup Circuit which is Kentucky! GO 24!!!
I think Brad's arrogant. Can't really stand him.
Jr didn't win so I'm good with Brad winning.
Agreed and he can be dirty.
Still better than Jimmie winning it.
It was simply a lesser of 2 evils, IMO.
Brad needs to grow up. He's a really good driver but he has issues like Stewart did as well as Busch Brothers. It seems to be something in many of the drivers to be like that. I mean in all honesty, Earnhardt Sr. was like that. Even his close friends will tell you he would wreck his mother to win a race. And look at the Gordon/Bowyer incident. They all have this "gene".
Anyway, congrats on a great season to Brad.
I hope next year is the year for MWR.
I started disliking Brad when I heard him talking about how he didn't feel like the past champions of the series have represented Nascar well. How he could do a much better job of it. He actually said that.
Ive never felt that Brad was very likable.
He will have his fans tho, after all people like to go with the winner.
Even Kyle Busch has fans. :bang2:
I like Kyle Busch because he had the balls to wreck Jr. :laugh1:
Kyle Busch is an idiot. Anybody that would take a trophy from winning a race and then break it all up in victory lane deserves ZERO respect!
I never said he wasn't an idiot just that he had the balls to wreck Jr. :laugh1:

Taken from html5boilerplate:
063. * Font normalization inspired by YUI Library's fonts.css: developer.yahoo.com/yui/
064. */
066.body { font:13px/1.231 sans-serif; *font-size:small; } /* Hack retained to preserve specificity */
067.select, input, textarea, button { font:99% sans-serif; }
069./* Normalize monospace sizing:
070. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MediaWiki_talk:Common.css/Archive_11#Teletype_style_fix_for_Chrome */
071.pre, code, kbd, samp { font-family: monospace, sans-serif; }
What does it do? What is font normalizatinon? What are the issues if you don't have that in your .css?
body { font:13px/1.231 sans-serif; *font-size:small; }
That sets all browsers to have a base font size of 13px and a line height of 1.231 rather than the various defaults that they all have.
The "*font-size:small" is a hack for IE6 - 8 to set the font-size to "small" which is equivalent to 13px but still allows for the text to be resized via the browser controls (unfortunately IE5 is one size out and will get the wrong size with that)
The following code does the same for form elements which in some versions of IE do not inherit the font size or family.
select, input, textarea, button { font:99% sans-serif; }
The following code makes sure that a monspace font is used for elements that require that look.
pre, code, kbd, samp { font-family: monospace, sans-serif; }
Without the above you are left to the browser defaults which may vary.
However how many times have you used "pre, code, kbd, samp" in your pages? If the answer is none then you should question why you are adding it to every page you use.
Thanks Paul, again.
Now, the other bits of code seem fairly useful to me.
Just a question, I thought default size for fonts was 16px. Why set it to 13px here? It also biases all claculations for relative units (as in fluid layout), doesn't it?
Default font size vary by browser and by user setting. In what many forum experts might consider a bd method, they are forcing the user to have a base font of 13px, no matter what browser or what the user has set it to be.
it does bias relative calculation. the "advantage" ( not the quotes) is that t essentially makes relative calcs not relative and alowus you to trace the size of the font in pxs,
this is I admit , is hand IF you are lining up fonts to background images.
So you wouldn't normalize fonts?
It's a typo - I think Ray meant bad
It's a bad method because it changes the default that the user may have set as their preferred reading size.
If you had left the base size alone (save for body {font-size:100%} to avoid IE scaling bugs) and then just size all your text in ems/percentages then the visitor will see a layout that is scaled to size based on their preferred settings. If they like large text then they get a proportionate large scaled layout.
Once you change the base to 13px then a visitor will see a layout based on a 13px starting point rather than whatever they have set as their default or whatever the browser has set as default.
It's not as bad as some other methods that set the body to a really small percentage and indeed the 13px still leaves some scope for the page to be scaled up reasonable well and text will also resize in IE because the keyword was used. The bad is that it disregards what users have wanted for their default.
What is it? A steaming pile of /FAIL/ at accessibility and just more proof that all this HTML 5 bull is a steaming pile of manure tossed together by people who apparently have no business even writing websites in the first place.
"Boilerplate" -- you mean half assed framework defeating the point of using CSS, being the antithesis of separation of presentation from content, and combined with HTML 5 setting coding practices BACK a decade or MORE.
Do yourself a favor, forget that malarkey even exists.
Setting px on body -- mein gott... WHISKEY TANGO FOXTROT ROMEO CHARLIE!!!
If you need enough proof not to use that garbage -- there it is!
I expected you would make a strong point.
And you convinced me.
Does it also apply to the bit related to inputs?
Paul, I have seen a few of your replies on this [font sizing topic before. You seem to have a good grasp on this, and I am currently a bit lost. I am currently working with the html5 boilerplate, and once I came to this section, even I was confused. I am used to setting font size: 62.5%. Although from [URL="http://www.sitepoint.com/forums/showthread.php?565469-Relative-font-sizes&p=3923587#post3923587"]your post](http://www.sitepoint.com/forums/showthread.php?620506-Is-the-body-font-size-62.5-technique-still-current-Advisable) you seem to express a desire to use either 75% or 85% instead. Straight up if you were going to replace this exact piece of the boilerplate code for yourself, how would you write it? I'm a bit lost. Any help or clarification would be nice. Thanks in advance.
Would it look like this?body { margin: 0; font-size: 80%; line-height: 1.231; }
The 1.231 is a bit overkill and I would usually go up in units or half units at the least. 1.2 or 1.3 etc (or at a push 1.25, 1.3).
Jason (DS60) is the expert on font-sizing and has some nice examples of how things render on different machines. To be honest it doesn't matter whether you use 80% or 100% or 62.5% because they still won't equate to an exact pixel size as that is determined by the browser and user settings. You just define a relationship between the elements on your page and whatever the user has set for their base size will affect how your layout appears - which is what they want. If you set 62.5% because you think it will match a certain pixel size then that is unlikely to be true in many situations.
These days I usually leave the body at 100% and then apply rules to content as required but avoid making the text too small. For line-height I like about 1.4 as I like spaced out lines but you should set what ever you think best for your design but 1.2 is probably a minimum.
Pixel perfection is not a possibility with percentages so you should let go of total control a bit.:)
Whereas I'd be aiming for 1.4 to 1.6, but that's because I find taller line heights make it easier to read wider lines.
Which is why the "62.5% == 10px" Bull is exactly that, 100% grade A manure shovelled out by people who don't understand the ENTIRE REASON FOR USING %/EM IN THE FIRST PLACE... that being it is NOT a fixed relationship to PX and instead is based off whatever the end user has set for preferences either in their browser or in the host OS. (in the browsers that actually take the SHOCK time to pay attention to it like Opera and IE)
I like to set whatever font size is being used for most of the content (my paragraphs) and then base everything else off of that... so that could mean anywhere from 75% to 120% depending on what actual font is in use.
Something I repeatedly point out is that the same font-size does NOT actually render the same if you change the face:
Just like as I point out on an old test page of mine, %/EM/PT have different default sizes based on the system and browser they are used on:http://battletech.hopto.org/html_tutorials/fontCompare/template.html
Also notice down towards the bottom of that page the bit about line-heights.
1.2 is typically (not always) the default -- the specification actually suggests a browser default of anywhere from 1.1 to 1.3... (likely explaining why Gecko based browsers like the sweetly retarded cousin of Nyetscape 4 they are seem to roll a d6 to determine line-height)... Again, I prefer a wee bit more so I set it to 1.4 to 1.6, again depending on the face, and where on the page it is... and as I always say, you change the font-size, you change the line-height.
Oh, and some people will tell you skipping adding a metric (px,em,%,pt,etc) will work properly on line-height-- those people have never used large font machines and usually have pages that are broken for me. It's more BS much akin to the 62.5% malarkey.
It's NEVER possible in the first place since you can NEVER rely on font engines kerning text to the same widths, having the perfect font you want actually available, etc, etc... It's why the mere notion of fixed sized (particularly heights, or really narrow widths... or multiple narrow widths as sections across the page) is a miserable /FAIL/ at web design, and a hefty part of what I've come to call the "But I can do it in Photoshop" idiocy.
To go hand in hand with the idiocy of drawing a pretty picture in Photoshop before you even have semantic markup and layout done in CSS, and then having the cojones to call one's-self a "designer" -- basically shooting one's-self in the foot before you even begin the code.
♥ deathshadow60 ♥
Wow. I can honestly say that I now feel enlightened. So many things make sense to me all of a sudden. Let's see if I'm getting this right.
To start, my current body copy is 16px, with a 24px line-height. So obviously to make things simpler i should be basing my body around the font size that I am most often using, my paragraph.
Thus I should now set:
body { margin: 0; font-size: 100%; line-height: 150%; }
And yes deathshadow60, I have learned that regardless of the situation, I am not establishing a pixel size of 16px and a line-height of 24px, but rather a relationship stating that no matter how fonts are resized, they will generally appear to use the same ratio. However, for users that don't define their font am I establishing 16px on average, seeing as 100% = 1em = 16px? Possibly give or take a few exceptions like IE?
This made me think about something in my own code. Would you suggest staying away from settings such as the following? Is it bad practice, or is it still acceptable?
And finally my last realization came when I started thinking about the following sentiment:
I have recently reviewed quite a few articles with regards to responsive design and the like, but given the scale/allotted time span of our current project at work. I determined it would be something to best address at the next phase when we were able to see a more significant use of our website by mobile and tablet users. So I thought I'd put that aside, until now.
I had always worked with fixed widths and even heights, and I was going to continue those ways until this outspoken opinion of yours. By this downplaying of fixed size, are you suggesting that the best route would be to used a fluid grid layout, or are you suggesting another alternative?
What I gathered/guessed from this was that you recommend a fluid layout, and after this conversation on ems, reading [this post as well, and rereading [URL="http://www.alistapart.com/articles/fluidgrids/"]fluid grids](http://www.sitepoint.com/forums/showthread.php?795694-Where-to-set-Font-Size), I can finally say that I am beginning to get it. I've been able to get from opinionated boilerplate, to px, to ems, to understanding fluid grids all through this conversation. . . And I thank you all very much.
You are correct that for you it will be 16px and others users will get whatever is their default is which may or may not be 16px but doesn't really matter. The approach however is correct and will save you fiddling around with multiple rules.
I have to disagree with Jason on the unitless height and I have never seen a real problem with them but more often see more problems with percentages/em (e.g. line-heights far too tall for small text). There may be minor differences under stress testing or extreme situations but unitless line-heights make for a more readable and sensible structure they proved a better mechanism that using percentage line-heights. To be honest most people don't understand the difference.
Unitless line-heights pass a scaling factor down to their children so if you have text at a smaller size within a context then its line-height will be smaller and more appropriate. When using percentags/em for line height a fixed computed pixel size is handed down to the children so you end up with small text having a large line-height.
Obviously you can avoid this issue by always declaring a suitable line-height when you declare a font-size (as Jason suggests) but in my mind that's extra code that is for the most part unnecessary. However I know Jason disagrees on this so make your own mind up.
Height is rarely needed for elements that hold text and if you must have elements at a certain height then be sure to ems so that they can scale properly. 99% of the time elements that hold text content should not have height defined
Fixed width sites are easier to design but are not best for all your visitors. A fluid width (min/max) approach is usually the way to go but you need to plan carefully and expect that everything will move to another line. Don't try to squash menus into one line and always allow room to breathe. There are plenty discussions on the forum about them (as you have found):).
Thanks, I should have specified. The only height I have used so far on this particular project is for a "banner" with an image background. I am currently working to create it using as much css as possible and thus having to avoid using an image at all except for as a backup for browsers that do not support CSS3.
I have however used it in the past, but i have learned the error of my ways. I have been working primarily on email design for the past year and half, so it's nice to finally return to a sane(r) world.
Uggh - I hate html emails Perhaps you can spread a few email tips around as I'm sure others would be interested.;)
Not a bad idea. Thanks.

Grandparents Day Drives Home Importance of Paid Leave
Sep 06, 2013
By Lauren French
This Sunday, September 8, marks the annual celebration of National Grandparents Day. This holiday reminds us of the critical support that paid leave provides in caring for our older Americans. Paid leave greatly improves the quality of life and economic security of seniors by allowing them to address their own health needs while remaining in the workforce, and by allowing working family members to provide quality care to elder loved ones.
The face of our workforce is changing, with more adults working later in life. Changes in our economy mean that about 30 percent of adults over the standard retirement age of 65 are still employed. Workers in this age range are more likely to face illness or injury, which may require them to take leave. Two out of three older adults have multiple chronic health conditions which account for 66 percent of this country's health care budget; paid leave is necessary to allow these workers to keep their jobs while also taking care of their health and that of their spouse. Providing paid leave is so important because older workers are such an invaluable asset to our economy. The wealth of knowledge and experience brought to the workplace by older workers benefits not only that particular job, but also serves as an education for younger workers and the workforce overall. Furthermore, these workers are often critical to providing economic security to their families, which in turn keeps our economy stable.
Another important function of paid leave in providing support for older Americans relates to the cost of elder care for working family members. As people grow older they are more likely to require care after an injury or illness, which is often provided by family members. About one in five workers now report having responsibilities related to the care of an older adult. For many Americans, while caring for a parent or grandparents is a labor of love, it is also a second or third job, and it is often taken on in addition to responsibilities for their own children.
Although there are nearly 43.5 million adults over 50 caring for older family members in the United States, many of them do not have access to paid leave to provide proper care while balancing their work obligations. In 2012, one in three workers who reported taking family or medical leave received no pay during their leave. This is especially significant considering that low-income workers, who can least afford to take unpaid leave, are twice as likely to face elder care demands compared to their higher-income counterparts. Without paid leave, caregivers are faced with the tremendous stress of being forced to sacrifice their job security and economic well-being to assure that their loved ones are being cared for.
On Grandparents Day, it is important that we recognize the increasing need for paid leave in providing proper care for our older loved ones. Without paid leave, seniors and their family members are often forced to choose between their economic security and the health of themselves or their loved ones. Let's honor our grandparents this holiday by fighting for paid family and medical leave to assure our loved ones will be cared for in the best possible manner.

Clemens leads Tornados on mound and at plate in split with PfeifferFebruary 18, 2012
Tornados fall in game one, rebound to top Falcons in night cap
Misenheimer, N.C. - The Brevard College softball team split with Pfeiffer University on Saturday afternoon at Jack Ingram Field as the Falcons took game one behind Celia Dew's RBI single in the sixth inning, breaking a 1-1 tie, while the Tornados rallied in the nightcap behind the pitching and hitting of Kayla Clemens to take game two 8-1.
Brevard moves to 5-1 on the season, while Pfeiffer is now 2-2 in 2012.
Game One: Pfeiffer 2, Brevard 1
Box Score
The Falcons handed the Tornados their first loss of the season as Dew was a perfect 3-for-3 from the plate in support of Shelby Brown as Pfeiffer took the first game of the doubleheader.
Ashlee Ellen broke a scoreless tie in the bottom of the fourth inning, driving a one-out solo home run down the left field line off BC starter Alyssa Miller (2-1) to put the Falcons on the board.
Brevard struck back in the top of the fifth as Emily Boykin led off the inning with a double down the left field line. A sacrifice bunt moved Boykin to third base and Brittany Jones brought her home on a groundout, knotting the game up at 1 apiece.
The Tornados threatened to take the lead in the sixth, placing runners in scoring position with one out as Brittany Fowler reached on a fielder's choice and Chelsi Mallory knocked a single to centerfield to put Brevard in position to take the lead. However, Brown was able to force the Tornados into a double play to escape the jam, ending the BC threat.
Hannah Jackson led off the bottom of the sixth with a base hit and advanced to second on a sacrifice bunt. After Miller retired Kirsten Patterson on strikes, Dew put the Falcons ahead driving a base hit into left field scoring Jackson.
Brown retired the side in the top of the seventh to end the contest in favor of Pfeiffer.
Game Two: Brevard 8, Pfeiffer 1
Box Score
Clemens threw a complete game four-hitter and drove a two-run home run in the Tornados six run sixth inning as Brevard topped Pfeiffer in earning the split on Saturday afternoon with their 8-1 victory in the night cap.
Maddie Fletcher drove in a run in the top of the second with a base hit, scoring Clemens and Brittany Tucker scored on a wild pitch to put Brevard up early against Falcons starter Melanie Conklin.
Pfeiffer cut into the lead in the bottom of the third as Lindsey Russell led off the inning with a base hit. Sadie Saine reached on a two-out error, scoring Russell from second base to put Pfeiffer back within striking distance, but Saine was caught stealing to end the inning.
The Tornados pulled away in the top of the sixth as the first four BC hitters reached base en route to a six run inning, putting Brevard up 8-1. Meredith Davenport and Fowler hit back-to-back singles to lead off the inning, and Mallory followed by clearing the bases with a double down the left field line. Clemens followed on two pitches later, driving the ball over the left field fence to put BC up 6-1.
Brevard continued to connect in the inning as Jones and Ally Davenport reached on a pair of singles with two out in the inning and Meredith Davenport brought both in, reaching on a fielding error to give the Tornados the commanding lead.
The Falcons placed runners on base in both the sixth and the seventh inning, but Clemens was able to keep Pfeiffer off the scoreboard as the Tornados earned the split with the 8-1 victory.
Brevard remains on the road as they continue non-conference action on Tuesday, February 21st in Milligan, Tenn. against Milligan College. First pitch in the doubleheader between the Tornados and the Buffaloes is set for 2 p.m.

Miley Cyrus to appear nude in upcoming video with Future
Listen to Miley Cyrus on iHeartRadio | Listen to Future on iHeartRadio
Miley Cyrus seems to have lost her clothes on the set of a music video, yet again.
This time, the singer is appearing in a video for her friend and collaborator rapper Future. She is featured on a song off his upcoming album called "Real and True."
"E! News" has released several stills from the futuristic-themed video, which will be premiering on Friday. In the photos, Miley appears to be covered head-to-toe in metallic silver body paint, and very little else. She's seen laying face up on what seems like some sort of operating table, with Future standing over her.
The rapper recently sang Miley's praises in an interview with "MTV." He spoke about the time they spent in the studio, saying the 20-year-old opened up to him about her personal troubles and that the two made songs that are "very touching."

'12 Angry Jurors'
By Frenche` Brewer, firstname.lastname@example.com, 803-777-3691
A production manager switches roles to direct the provocative courtroom drama "12 Angry Jurors" set to be performed by the University of South Carolina Department of Theatre and Dance Feb. 28-March 3.
The play will be held at 8 p.m. each evening at the Benson Theatre, 226 Bull St.
"This is a play that will definitely challenge each audience member's beliefs," says K. Dale White, director of "12 Angry Jurors." "I hope it leaves them talking about the play, about the Fifth Amendment and about the death penalty. I hope it inspires people to start a conversation about their beliefs."
The production is adapted from the Emmy Award-winning 1954 play "12 Angry Men" by Reginald Rose. Later renamed "12 Angry Jurors," the storyline revolves around the jury deliberations for a 19-year-old accused of fatally stabbing his father. What appears to be an open-and-shut case explodes into a tense fight among the 12 men and women, as they struggle to decide the fate of the young man.
"This is definitely not a tired, old piece, especially when I look at today's headlines," White says. "Just recently, I read about a few guys who, thanks to modern DNA testing, were found to have been wrongly convicted and were released from death row. Like those headlines, this play really gets you thinking about our justice system and the immense weight of how the decision of 12 people can cause a potentially innocent person to be sentenced to the ultimate punishment."
White says the play also reveals societal prejudices, which impact how the jurors interact with each other as they struggle to reach a unanimous verdict.
"Each character on this jury is an easily identifiable stereotype, and that's on purpose. You've got the conservative, the liberal, the bigot. Ultimately, the conflict of the play centers on the jurors' individual judgmental attitudes and their struggles to simply get along," White says.
Student actors cast in the role of jurors and alternates are: Megh Ahire, Mason Branham, John Floyd, Kamille Hayes, Sarah Hearn, Elizabeth Houck, Katie Middleton, Kristina Montgomery, Emily Olyarchuk, Rachel Player, Grace Stewart, Maryam Tehranie, Kelsea Woods and JordanYoumans. The stage manager is Lacey Taylorand Bakari Lebby is in charge of soundscape.
Tickets are $5 and available on a first-come, first-served basis.

A new study shows proposed changes to the tax code restricting the use of cash accounting by agricultural operations would reduce agriculture's access to capital by as much as $12.1 billion over the next four years.
The study, released today by the national accounting firm Kennedy and Coe, LLC and Farmers for Tax Fairness revealed that U.S. agricultural producers forced to switch from cash-basis to accrual-basis accounting under new laws would have to pay out as much as $4.84 billion in taxes during the next four years. Borrowing capacity of these operations would decrease by another $7.26 billion over the same time period.

Three cavers trapped underground in the Bungonia National Park for nearly a day have been rescued and taken to the surface.
Police and paramedics had been searching for the three men - aged 52, 47 and 21 - who were reported missing on Sunday night after heavy rain and a possible rockfall trapped them in the caves.
Rescuers initially dug a small hole through to the cavern in which they were trapped.
A NSW Ambulance spokeswoman said rescuers managed to bring the first man to the surface just before 1pm on Monday, 24 hours after the trio entered the caves.
The two remaining cavers were rescued just before 2pm.
The men were "cold and wet, but otherwise well", the spokeswoman said.
Inspector John Sheehan said they became trapped between two separate flooded areas in the Hogan's Extension cave.
Rescuers dug their way through mud and slush to reach the trio.
Receding water levels helped the rescue operation.
"It's always a delicate operation because you're underground and in a very confined space," Inspector Sheehan said.
The cavers, who declined to be interviewed, gave a thumbs-up when they arrived back on dry land and planned to have a good sleep on Monday afternoon.
Heavy rain fell in the area on Sunday afternoon, flooding a section of the cave system and preventing the cavers' escape. One person involved in the rescue effort suggested there had been a rockfall in the caves.
Police said the men entered the cave system in Bungonia Gorge about 1pm on Sunday and were due to return at 6pm.
The sister of one of the men raised the alarm about 10pm on Sunday when they had still not turned up.
Police said rain and water in the cave system had hampered the search, involving specialist officers from the Goulburn Police Rescue squad and the Goulburn Local Area Command, and NSW Ambulance Special Operations Team members.
Mark Cooper travelled to the rescue site from Canberra early on Monday morning after he learnt that his friend's brother, David Bedford, 21, was missing in the caves.
"As soon as we heard that I said, 'Look we'll head out there, let's do it,' " Mr Cooper said.
"Halfway here we heard that they had vocal contact with them and that's all we've heard, and they're having troubles to try and get him out. A lot of water, and that's all I know."
He said Mr Bedford was from Colo Vale, but he did not know the other two men Mr Bedford was caving with at the time.
However, he said they were experienced and "they've done this [caving in the Bungonia National Park] a ridiculous amount of times before".
Asked how he was feeling, Mr Cooper said: "Pretty scared, you know, that something really, really bad might happen.
"I'm just hoping they'll get out."
Brett Dutschke, a meteorologist at Weatherzone, said the Goulburn area had received about 50 millimetres of rain since Friday.
"The heaviest rainfall was on Sunday afternoon. There would have been some brief flash flooding around about 4.30pm in that area," Mr Dutschke said.
Inspector Anthony McLean, from Goulburn police, said the men were believed to be friends, and had previously been caving in the Bungonia area.
Earlier, he said the men were carrying technical caving equipment, and rescue teams had started searching for the men late on Sunday and throughout the night.
"I know there is some water in the caves, but I'm not sure how much at the moment," he said.
He declined to name the cave in which the men were stuck.
According to the Bungonia National Park website, there are about 200 "wild caves" in the park, many of which are open for experienced cavers to explore.
Many of the caves are vertical, requiring the use of either ladders or ropes.

In 2003, a cadet officer from the Royal Military College Duntroon was trapped in the Bungonia State Recreation Area.
The 31-year-old Victorian was part of a group of cadets undergoing adventure training.
The man, an experienced caver, slipped and fell four metres into the cave, dislocating his shoulder.
Goulburn Police Rescue and the NSW Ambulance Special Casualty Access team were hampered in their rescue attempt by the difficult conditions, but brought him to the surface after about 10 hours.

If find the wind predictions from Swell Info to be fairly accurate, but like any weather prediction, its about knowing your spot, putting your own eyes on it. Far to often the surf sucks or gets ridiculously good when quite the opposite is being predicted. I also find the local news to be a good place to check for wind predictions.
As to your query about where the predictions come from, everyone is right, different surf prediction services use different weather services and even buoys or local weather stations. I say again, why not just go look at the surf. If you are not in such a position, local surf shops have call-in reports, you can view cams, or you can use marine forecasts when making a decision to drive to the surf. Still, there is no better surf forecast for a given day in question then your own two eyes. Everything else is just a tool to give a general idea of what might happen, and they are all wrong often enough to never completely trust.
Equally, when the wind is blowing and the swell is right, its about knowing your local surf zone and multiple spots. No swell forecast service can beat this most useful of predictors.

text: Hey all, I'm new to this thread. I've just burned a Backtrack Live DVD, the r3 version, to install on my recently added 200Gb hard disk. I boot it up with no problems, All goes well, I enter startx and about less than a minute after the GUI loads up the computer restarts automatically before I can try to install it, several times this happened and one out of those times what looked like a BSOD except it was black with a pageload of random data. I made sure I took all the right steps, burned dvd at 4x on quality disk and whatnot. I'm thinking it is a hardware related issue So if anybody run into this and got an expert solution that would be great cuz I installed previous versions on different computers without delay or issue. Thx to anyone who has answer.

This Machine Will Self-Destruct, and Other NewsBy Dan Piepenbring
- New additions to the list of things the pen is mightier than: the mouth, the camera. "As soon as kids acquire a basic understanding of letters and reading … they exhibit a greater trust in printed textual information than in oral or visual information … something about the act of learning to read causes children to 'rapidly come to regard the written word as a particularly authoritative source of information about how to act in the world.'" And it is. Trust me.
- Clancy Martin and Amie Barrodale on the Chateau Marmont: "To the left is a room with a lot of nice old mismatched couches and armchairs. Not blocking the chairs, so you might not notice it, just against the far wall, is a podium. An attractive person is always standing there, and if you try to sit in the lobby, he or she says, 'Are you staying here?' If you are, then you can sit."
- On DIS magazine and accelerationism: "'Do they really just worship consumerism?' … As curator Agatha Wara, a DIS associate, once explained it to me, accelerationists believe that 'the only way to get over capital is through capital'—that is, by accelerating capitalism's own tendency toward self-destruction."
- Speaking of that very tendency, Amazon is making a smartphone.
- Did you know? It's not easy to translate Proust: "There is always a tension in translation between the spirit and the letter, between conveying things we might call tone, mood, feel, or music, and being as literally faithful to the original as possible. Moncrieff excelled at both."
- How an episode of Star Trek: The Next Generation describes the outermost limits of our capacity to communicate: "Tamarian verbalisms depict the world through images and figures, which distort their 'real' referents. Troi and Picard can't help but interpret Tamarian through their (and our) cultural obsession with mimicry: Metaphorical language operates not by signification, but as poetry, by transforming the real in a symbolic mirror. But for the Tamarians, something far weirder is going on …"

Man issued 2 summonses after bringing gun to RIC
Citizen Staff Reports 10/09/12
A Disputanta, Va. man was cited at Richmond International Airport Oct. 8 after it was discovered that he had a .25-caliber handgun in his carry-on bag. TSA officers detected the gun as the man's carry-on baggage passed through the checkpoint metal detector.
TSA officials contacted the Capital Regional Airport Commission Police, who regularly patrol the airport. The police responded, confiscated the weapon and issued two summonses to the man related to state weapons charges. There was no impact to airport operations. The man, who was ticketed to fly to Atlanta, was able to continue on his flight.
Some weapons are permitted to be transported in checked baggage if properly packaged, but passengers should check with the airlines for proper procedures as well as checking into local laws before doing so.
Passengers can review the prohibited items list on the TSA homepage or they can download the free MyTSA application from the TSA homepage. The TSA web site and the MyTSA app have a "Can I Bring?" feature that allows users to type in items they plan to bring on a trip to get an explanation of TSA's security policies for the item, including whether the item can be taken in carry-on luggage through the security checkpoint, packed in checked baggage, both, or neither. The mobile app is available to download for free at http://www.tsa.gov/mobile.

Caratini flashes bat for Danville06/20/2013 7:06 PM ET
By Jonathan Raymond / Special to MLB.com
It's not yet clear where Atlanta's 2013 second-rounder Victor Caratini will wind up defensively on the diamond long-term, but it wasn't his glove that attracted the Braves. His bat was the driving force behind his selection.
And in his professional debut Thursday, he showed just what he can provide with said bat.
The 65th overall pick in the 2013 Draft went a perfect 4-for-4 at the plate, spraying a triple and two doubles, driving in a run and scoring three times as Rookie-level Danville beat Princeton, 9-1, in their Appalachian League opener.
"He's got a good path to the baseball," said Danville hitting coach Rick Albert. "[He's] a switch-hitter, and what he showed tonight was he can hit the ball hard from both sides. He's able to use all fields. Tonight, left-handed, he hit a ball off the right-field wall, left-handed, hit one to left center, then right-handed hit one through the hole at second and doubled over the left fielder.
"He had four at-bats and he put the ball in play hard all four times. It's a good thing to see."
Caratini was officially drafted as a catcher, but spent Thursday evening at third base, where he also played the majority of his games during his college season at Miami Dade College, where another catcher on the roster managed the bulk of the duties behind the dish. He also saw some time at second base.
Regardless of position, Caratini showed he could hit, as he led that lineup in most offensive categories. In 45 games, he batted .377/.467/.549 with six homers, 12 doubles and 66 RBIs, along with 10 steals in 11 attempts.
Albert said the plan for now is to have him play third regularly while working on his catching skills behind the scenes as the Braves try to keep his bat in the lineup every day.
"More on that decision will be made at the instructional league at the end of the year. They'll decide what they're gonna do with him," he said. "But he's got good hands, which is a plus if he's gonna catch or not. His arm is adequate and he handled both plays tonight. As far as range and stuff, we just have to let him play a bit and see what we've got."
Braves director of scouting Tony DeMacio told MLB.com after the Draft that the team was enticed by the potential it saw in the 6-foot, 192-pound Puerto Rico native.
"We just really liked his bat as much as anything. We saw him early and liked him from the very beginning," he said.
Albert said, on first glance, it didn't seem like Caratini would need a ton of tutelage as a batter.
"We sign these players and we throw them out there and let them play. As we go along, if there's adjustments that have to be made, then we'll do that, but with the new guys, we just let them play," he said. "[Caratini] walked right in here and had a heck of a game in the first game of his career."
Andry Ubiera (1-0) held Princeton to a run on two hits and two walks while striking out three over five innings to pick up the win.
Center fielder Kyle Wren, Atlanta's eighth-round pick and son of Braves general manager Frank Wren, went 3-for-5 with two runs scored out of the leadoff spot for Danville.

Excerpt from Mr. Adnan Oktar's Live Interview on Kackar TV dated November 19th, 2010
No, I swear by the evening glow, and the night and all it shrouds, and the moon when it is full, and the moon when it is full,
Full moon gives the date of Solar and Lunar eclipses. The Qur'an gives an exact date. Solar and Lunar eclipses are the portents of the coming of Hazrat Mahdi (pbuh). And it gives the exact date.
And the moon when it is full
At the same time after the 18th verse, it points to 1814. That is a different date.
You will mount up stage by stage!
So you will turn from matter into soul. You will turn into matter when you are soul; the verse also points to this.
What is the matter with them that they have no faithand, when the Qur'an is recited to them, do not prostrate?
So He says that they do not submit to the Qur'an. This is a sign for the End Times as a feature of unbelief.
But Allah knows best what they are storing in their hearts. Give them the news of a painful punishment except those who have faith and do right actions: they will have a wage which never fails.
For instance Almighty Allah talks about the system of the dajjal (anti-messiah) and then the system of the Mahdi.
Except those who have faith and do right actions: they will have a wage which never fails.
The Qur'an constantly emphasizes the followers of unbelief and the supporters of the Mahdi.2011-06-19 16:03:51

Over the last few months, the wonderful facilities staff at the library have been putting more than 100 new outlets throughout the building. Most of the outlets were added to the worktables in the library, so that students can plug in thirsty laptops.
This project is the result of the comments that students placed on the flipcharts we posted last year in the library. We asked how we could improve the library, and one of the most common suggestions was access to more power outlets. So we made it a top priority!
If you ever have suggestions on how to make the library better, please let us know! We truly do listen and are always looking for ways to improve Belk Library.


text: Yeah, I love Torey Pines (I used to live there, UCSD grad). I also like those spots in Del Mar (15th St.). Blacks might be a good choice if it is small, since most people won't want to do the walk. I think it must be a 1/4 to 1/2 mile down the path to Blacks. You also might want to just drive north to Solana or Encinitas. There are plenty of little spots along the road. But my first choice would be North Torrey or South Del Mar, I love those places.

Is there a link between spending behavior and investing?
In the April 2008 issue of the Journal of Consumer Research, researchers Scott Rick, from the University of Pennsylvania, and Cynthia Cryder and George Lowenstein, both from Carnegie Mellon University, developed the "Spendthrift-Tightwad scale" based on their questions to over 13,000 consumers. They found that tightwads experience pain when it comes to paying while spendthrifts don't seem to feel enough pain.
According to the study, 15 percent of consumers are spendthrifts, 60 percent fall in the middle and 25 percent are tightwads.
Spending behavior and investing
The study on tightwads and spendthrifts differentiated between frugality, in which savers derive pleasure from saving, and being a tightwad, in which the afflicted feel pained at the thought of spending money.
With tightwads drowning in angst over purchases, it's not hard to imagine that they could feel similar pangs over investment losses. At the far end of the spectrum, die-hard spendthrifts may not have enough money for investing after frittering everything away on impulse buys.
But risk-taking behavior in one area doesn't always translate to high-risk behavior in other areas, according to a story on PsychCentral.com, "Risk-taking more complex than expected."
According to the story, people with more experience with certain risky situations may perceive them as less risky.
People may be able to mitigate their feelings about money by working to change their habits on their own. Or some psychotherapists work with clients about money and spending habits, which can be as fraught with hidden motives and meanings as our behavior in other areas. Financial planners can also help clients through spending problems.
"Financial behavior is conditioned over time and usually leads to consistent patterns. They are habits, and first we make our habits, and then our habits make us. It's amazing because you can ask people what they did with their very first paycheck, and if they went out and spent it all, they're very likely to still be a big spender today. For those who squirreled it away for a rainy day, they're highly likely to still be savers today," says Robert Laura, president of Synergos Financial Group.
Are you a spender or a saver? If you're either of the extremes, do you feel like it's adversely affected your investment portfolio?

Information for Patients
Arm Injuries and Disorders
Of the 206 bones in your body, 3 of them are in your arm; the humerus, radius and ulna. Your arms are also made up of muscles, joints, tendons and other connective tissue. Injuries to any of these parts of the arm can occur during sports, a fall or an accident.
Types of arm injuries include
- Tendinitis and bursitis
- Sprains
- Dislocations
- Broken bones
Some nerve problems, arthritis, or cancers can affect the entire arm and cause pain, spasms, swelling and trouble moving. You may also have problems or injure specific parts of your arm, such as your hand, wrist, elbow or shoulder.
- Arm CT scan
- Brachial plexopathy
- Radial head fracture - aftercare
- Radial nerve dysfunction

Shoulder Injuries and Disorders
Your shoulder joint is composed of three bones: the clavicle (collarbone), the scapula (shoulder blade), and the humerus (upper arm bone). Your shoulders are the most movable joints in your body. They can also be unstable because the ball of the upper arm is larger than the shoulder socket that holds it. To remain in a stable or normal position, the shoulder must be anchored by muscles, tendons and ligaments. Because the shoulder can be unstable, it is the site of many common problems. They include sprains, strains, dislocations, separations, tendinitis, bursitis, torn rotator cuffs, frozen shoulder, fractures and arthritis.
Usually shoulder problems are treated with RICE. This stands for Rest, Ice, Compression and Elevation. Other treatments include exercise, medicines to reduce pain and swelling, and surgery if other treatments don't work.

'US national security policies increasingly violating civil liberties'Karen Greenberg on PressTV, March 22, 2012
Media Source
The national security policies of the United States are increasingly violating civil liberties in that country.
This is according to Karen Greenberg, director of the Center on National Security at Fordham University in New York. She told Press TV's U.S. Desk on Wednesday, "If you look at the national security policy as it's emerging in 2012, it seems to be following along the lines that are increasingly invasive in terms of violating civil liberties."
In an article published Monday in Commondreams.org, Greenberg writes that Americans can expect the Obama administration and if a different President is in the Oval Office, to continue to barrel down the same path George Bush did and keep America in a war like atmosphere that started on 9/11.

What can I do to stop all the potty talk?
Hi all~
Okay here's my issue. My boys will be 5 years old in May and recently they have been cracking each other up with inappropriate words and phrases. Each one thinks that other is absolutely hysterical which just encourages them to do it more.
They are not saying any "bad" words or anything -- my husband and I don't use that kind of language in our home. However, they like to say things like poop, toot, pee, butt and those types of words when they are talking to each other. Let me give you an example, one might say to the other "You wear poopy nappies." then they erupt into laughter. It's not the words they are saying, it's HOW they are using them that gets me. I know it probably seems harmless and it's just boys being boys but yesterday they just wouldn't stop talking like that and it was just grating on me! I do not want them speaking to their friends at school this way (though I'm sure this is where they learned some of it).
I'm afraid if I just ignore it, they will keep going with it and say things at very inappropriate times. However, I also don't like to constantly be on them about it. What should I do? Any advice would be much appreciated!!!
Overall, they are VERY good boys. They are polite, respectful and kind but this is driving me crazy

I want to say that this is normal early childhood behaviour and you should try not to take it too seriously. I do think if you just ignore it, they will eventually grow out of it. However, it is clearly bothering you. So, I would suggest that you sit down with them and discuss the importance of time and place. Maybe set some boundaries, "we do not talk about poop (or whatever it is) at the table, school, in the store, etc." Maybe that will help to reduce some of the incidents. However, if they are just playing around in their room and making the ocassional inappropriate joke, as long as the content remains relatively harmless, I would try to just let it go.
Good luck Christie!

Hi Christie,
Bathroom talk belongs... in the bathroom.
You need to be firm in letting them know that this is not appropriate and you won't let them talk this way. If you notice that one has made a comment that isn't appropriate, then take that one to the bathroom (alone) and let him know that he can say those words in there, and when he's done, he may come out, but you won't allow him to say them outside of the bathroom (bathroom talk belongs in the bathroom).
Be sure you separate your other boy before taking the "bathroom talk one" to the bathroom to do his talking - just so he doesn't say it behind a closed door, and your other son hears him and starts laughing.
If they're both doing it, then two different bathrooms could be used, or one goes to his room for a time, until it's his turn to use his bathroom words in the bathroom.
My guess is that this will get old very quickly - who wants to stay in the bathroom and use bathroom words by himself (without anyone to react)?!?!
This is the first idea that comes to mind. Be firm, be consistent (every time you hear it for the next week or so, you'll need to do this) and my guess is that it won't take too many times of heading to the bathroom before you'll hear "I'm sorry, I won't do it again.".
Hope this helps.
Warm regards,

Kate ~ That's brilliant. I am definitely going to try that next time and I love how it gently reminds them that those words are for bathroom use only Oh and you are right seperating them is going to be key. Thanks and I'll let you know how it goes!
Mom2Many ~ I do think you are right, their age has alot to do with why this is occuring now. Some of the other mums of boy their age I have talked to say thier boys do the same thing. Thanks for the luck, I may need it

LISTEN: Remy Ma Shares Song After Prison Release
Listen to Remy Ma Radio on iHeartRadio
Remy Ma is out of prison after serving six years behind bars for shooting another woman. The former Terror Squad emcee was released on Friday. She didn't waste any time getting back in the studio and teamed up with DJ Khaled to release a remix of "They Don't Love You No More."
Remy was freed just one day after her scheduled release date of July 31st. That date was briefly postponed because she was being disciplined for a phone violation earlier in the month.
In celebration of her release, Remy's husband, rapper Papoose, took to Instagram to post a photo of a candlelit cake in honor of her homecoming. In a caption accompanying the pic, Papoose writes that he's "happy" to finally see her free. He also calls her release a "new chapter" in their lives.
In May 2008, Remy was sentenced to eight years in prison for shooting another woman in the stomach.

School Crossing Signs
You've seen the signs I mean – silhouette figures of two children about to cross the road: one boy, one girl. (How do we tell? One's wearing a skirt.) (That'd be the girl.) (Really, do most girls still wear skirts to school?)
So, yes, let's emphasize sex. Boy and Girl. Ms. and Mr. Nothing else matters.
And nothing else is possible.
Note that the boy is taller. 'Oh, but they are.' Not at that age! Taller suggests older which suggests more mature, wiser. And just in case you miss this not-so-subtle suggestion of male authority, look, he has his hand on the little girl's shoulder – guiding, protecting, patronizing. It will be there for the rest of her life.
Just to make sure of that, we have this social understanding …
