Received them about a week ago. I will be shipping them tomorrow to Poetik. I've spent a bit of time with them.
I've been using a mixture of sansa clip+, clip+ with PA2v2, and computers. As far as amped vs. unamped, I believe they do sound better with it, but I honestly can't say if that "last 5%" is just in my head or not with these phones.
I gotta say I feel like this product almost lacks an identity. It seems the only way you can easily tell them apart from the re-262's is by the "272" labeled on them. The box it comes in, the accessories, and the design of the IEMs are all identical to the re-262. And honestly the sound, to me anyways, doesn't sound very different from the 262 either. The difference is there, but it seems for their new "flagship" they might have changed a few things up and given it it's own identity. It seems most people feel these are a slightly better re-262, but a whole lot more expensive (in comparison anyway,) and I agree.
It seems like a lot of the reviews have been mostly middle of the road with a mix of negative. The only real higher-end IEMs I have to compare them to are the re-zero, re0, and re-262. Keep that in mind when I say these are fantastic headphones. They are all about the details, and I'm a nut for details. I am as interested in everything happening in the background as I am the foreground. Vocals are beautiful on them, as well as most instruments. They're a lot more focused on the highs than the mids like the re-262. The only real downfall for them is the same downfall for all hifiman IEMs, the bass. It's not bad, it's never been BAD, It's just not as good as the mids and highs, and you really only notice it on songs that are defined by the bass. Let me put it this way, you can HEAR the bass and it's accurate and whatnot, but I don't FEEL it.
I can definitely understand people who think they are TOO "clean" or analytical. I think these were made for laying down in the dark and listening to them, if you're not giving them 100% of your attention you kind of forget they're on your head, and it turns from music to just noise. However if you are focused on the music they are pretty much awesome.
If these were $150 right next to the re-262's, I'd probably pick these, but they aren't. They're $100 more and I'm not sure exactly why. Same case, same design, same accessories, slightly better sound (to me anyways.) I think $175 would be a great price for them. If I simply bought these I think I'd feel a little bit cheated at $250. Bottom line, fantastic IEMs, but not worth the $$ over re-262.
Well, 272 has a low impedance. If it can perform unamped the same as 262 amped, then it is a winner.

A double colon key!
OK this time it is in fact a very strange keyboard.
We think everyone assumed that the IPv6 Buddy was either a joke or a scam. The web site looks like a joke (and is not even on an IPv6 address).
On top of which it appears to be a UK company selling to the US (and UK) in dollars only using paypal, which also seemed iffy.
Whilst the guy that runs it clearly has no idea about raising invoices properly, and no idea on correct product labeling requirements, it seems the keyboards do in fact exist. I have one. It does what it says on the tin!
It is a USB keypad specifically designed to make entry of IPv6 addresses, with CIDR, easy. It has a full hex keyboard, dot, colon, double colon, slash, backspace, tab and enter keys.
Testing the operation it seems the colon and double colon are handled specially in that they send a left shift and colon/semi-colon key press and release sequence on key press (twice for double colon). The other keys work as on a normal keyboard (separate press and release as you work the key) and so auto-repeat as expected.
We may even put them on the A&A site :-)

Tree and Shrub Fertilization
Your trees and shrubs are important investments. Given the proper care, they can share a lifetime with you. Make sure your trees and shrubs have a long and vibrant life by following the recommended fertilizer application rates.
How do I know if my trees and shrubs need to be fertilized?
Typically, if trees or shrubs are growing in a lawn that is regularly fertilized, there is little need to fertilize them separately. The roots of trees and shrubs will absorb some of the fertilizer applied to the lawn. However, trees and shrubs growing in planting beds may need to be fertilized, especially on sandy soils with little or no organic matter.
How to determine if fertilizer is needed?
The best way to determine the need for fertilizer is to have your soil tested. Most local county horticulture extension offices will offer this service. If getting a soil test is not an option, watch for the following indicators of poor growth: pale colored leaves, leaf sizes smaller than normal, leaves dropping during odd times of the season, twig or branch die back, or reduced twig growth.
Why choose Milorganite?
Milorganite's non-burning formula slowly releases nutrients to feed your shrubs and trees for up to 10 weeks. Which is especially important when transplanting young trees and shrubs. Milorganite's organic-nitrogen stimulates leaf, root, and shoot growth. The phosphorus in Milorganite stimulates root growth, and helps the plant set buds and flowers. And Milorganite's potassium improves overall plant vigor and provides disease resistance.

Erementar Gerad (Elemental Gelade)
Well, first I watched the anime and it was really good so I decided to buy the manga when I saw it in Chapters (thats Canada's large bookstore chain). But after buying it, I have a few questions.
I read the Wikipedia article on it (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Erementar_Gerad) and it says that the manga is still being published? so....is the manga still new and the anime was done first? And if you scroll down, it shows cover pictures that look way different then mine even though its of volume one and I bought volume one.. Why is this? (the red cover is WAY cooler looking than the cover I got) And lastly, which IS the proper name? Erementar Gerad or Elemental Gelade? Mine says "Elemental Gelade" but the pictures on wikipedia say "Erementar Gerad" Btw, this is the first manga I've ever bought so sorry if my first 2 questions have obvious (to you guys) answers. Thanks in advance |

Never read this manga but I think the cover difference is due to different versions published in Japan and overseas. It's very common that oversea version may have a different cover than Japanese ones, and that very cool red cover is in Japanese. I noticed for myself the manga Angel Sanctuary has a completely different cover in English too. If you read the wikipedia page carefully, there is a section below: "Different Translations", which explains the title name and I quote: "The title, which, at first, was officially transcribed as Erementar Gerad which was later changed to Elemental Gelade" There are a couple more translation differences below which I believe will clear your further doubt when you read through the volume. Again if you read the wikipedia, it says only two volumes are released in North America and the third is about to be on Mar 13, 2007. Please tell us how you like the manga next time, by the way, I live in Canada too. -- Freeter, you are quicker than me... |

Thanks for the fast replies
I love the manga. The fight scenes aren't as cool of course because fight scenes when animated are much more intense. Most of the characters look the same except for Kuea, which looks way cooler in the manga (shes got more chains on her) also the meeting between Ren and Coud is a bit different. The manga in general is A LOT funnier than the anime, and I personally prefer it over the anime. (and btw, Yay for Canada! hehe) |

From what I read, the anime started around the time Viro was introduced in the manga so her role completely different. |

The Elemental Gelade manga (red) is still on-going, as is Elemental Gelade: Flag of the Blue Sky (blue). It's been speculated that EG Blue proceeds parallel to the events of EG Red, and with the release of EG Blue volume 4, that theory has been confirmed. Whereas Red focuses on Cou, Ren, Cisqua and co., the Blue story stars Melfondo (cisqua's sister), Wolx, and Acheaburca Fuajarl, the princess of the kingdom of Fuajarl. |

Lost in Yonkers returns
The Langley Players Drama Club is set to stage two encore performances of its multiple award-winning production Lost in Yonkers.
The play recently won top honours in the Fraser Valley Zone Festival and will now be competing against seven other plays from around the province at the Theatre BC Mainstage Festival in Kamloops June 29 to July 6.
"Our fantastic team is working very hard to prepare for Mainstage in Kamloops on July 4," said director Mary Renvall.
"And as part of this preparation we are planning two additional performances."
Club President Angela Bell is equally elated. "We feel truly honoured to be representing Langley and the Fraser Valley in competition with the best of each Theatre BC Zone," she said.
"We are grateful for the support we have received from the community, and in particular we would like to thank the Township of Langley for the Community Grant which will help to defray the costs of participating in this event.
"The original show was largely sold out and these additional performances will give patrons who missed the original show another chance."
Lost in Yonkers will be performed on June 23 and 24 at the Langley Playhouse, 4307 200 St. in Brookswood.
Show time is 8 p.m. All tickets will be $20 – slightly higher than normal Langley Players' ticket prices to help cover the costs of taking the play to Mainstage.
Reserve at 604-534-7469 or online at firstname.lastname@example.com. Visit www.langleyplayers.com for more information.

My Life
My dream career would be to be stuck in a lab all day doing research on nanomedicine. I love the new possibilities nanomedicine presents and the implications that it could have on drug delivery, especially for cancer treatments. In my lab, I would dedicate all my time and efforts into researching the best kind of drug delivery system that would target only the cancerous cells. Before I could ever live my dream, I would have to finish my college degree in biochemistry and continue on to graduate school for my doctoral degree. After that, I would be able to apply for a job at either a research company or a university where I could teach and research at the same time. One day I dream of having my own lab and being able to say that I did something to help cure cancer, but first I have to finish my undergraduate experience. The first step to accomplish my dreams means finding a way to pay for my school, and with a part time job I still don't have a hope of paying for school without ending up in heaps of debt, but with the help of my parents and many more scholarships, my dream might become a reality.

I've been meaning to share a garden update with you – a lot has happened since my last update! It's one of those things where I've been doing more gardening than writing about it.
My hardy kiwi vines have been growing like gangbusters!
But the most exciting thing about the kiwis isn't how fast they are growing, but what they are growing…
I couldn't believe it – but BOTH my male and female vines seem to be budding! I've been told it can be a few years before they produce fruit and we're only in our second year, but I'm sooo hoping for even a few kiwis to enjoy this fall. I'll keep you posted.
My parsley patch is getting ready to bolt, so I clipped quite a bit of it to freeze into ice cubes. This little patch has been going since LAST SUMMER. Talk about a cost savings! I personally prefer to freeze herbs in a little water than dry them. I think the flavor is better retained. (Not to mention it's ridiculously easy!) For more on this and other ways to preserve herbs, make sure to see my post on herb preservation.
Speaking of bolting, I actually don't mind when a few veggies "go to seed" such as these kale plants and rutabagas. It is actually a natural process and look who benefits – the bees! I have spotted a few different kinds of bees on these flowers and I want them to get nice and ready to pollinate those kiwis and other berries in the garden. I plan on leaving them flowering until I need the space for other planting.
Check out that pollen!
We have a bunch of berries coming along rather nicely, too! Raspberries, strawberries and gooseberries. We're growing two different gooseberry varieties this year that are supposedly sweet enough to eat out of hand. I figure if they aren't, there is always gooseberry pie! We also have three blueberry bushes, a service berry (Saskatoon) and three huckleberry bushes. Unfortunately, two of the huckleberries are looking less than happy right now, but I've got my fingers crossed that they'll make a comeback.
Does this bug look like he's got some serious attitude or what? This is a leafhopper and I first noticed them on my raspberries last year. At first I began the panicky – oh no! what's going to happen! But guess what? Nothing seemed to happen… really. Still had plenty of raspberries. I've decided for right now at least, he and his buddies can stay.
Always a favorite plant of mine – mint! It always just pops up in the spring just begging to go into a mojito! Last year, I bought candy mint, apple mint, and chocolate mint and those are all starting to rally for spring now, too.
So this is going to get its own post in the next week or so (just sit tight!), but I basically created about 100 square feet of new growing space. It required building NO raised beds and involved recycling lots of materials I already had laying around. I promise… a post is coming, but I wanted to share what I've got going!
This is a fairly steep slope, so I'm growing perennial herbs and some flowers on it as well. At the top, I'm growing a pumpkin plant that I hope will fill in the slope. This area is in full sun! Yes, I know it's a tad early perhaps to put in a pumpkin, but I also know we're going to be having very warm weather this entire week, so I'm taking a risk. If temperatures dip, I'll find a way to deal with it and protect it.
Many of the herbs and flowers we're growing on that slope we picked up at the Seattle Tilth Edible Plant sale we attended a couple weekends ago (did you go?)! Have I ever mentioned I have a serious weakness for plants? Yeah…. I do. At last count, I now have over 20 different herb varieties growing around our property.
PS no, that is not my backyard – it's the Seattle Tilth garden. (I wish!)Here's one such herb – German Chamomile that reseeded itself and is getting ready to pop! I will then use these beauties for a homemade herbal tea.
I wanted to share with you one final tip I stumbled on – wine crates! I noticed these just chilling at the end of the aisle at my local wine shop, so I asked them, "hey, what do you do with those?" Turns out they sell them for $5 each! I have seen folks use these on Pinterest as inexpensive grow beds, but I'm going to use mine for harvesting veggies, maybe drying herbs, and a few other assorted things as I come up with them.
Let me know if you have seen these at your wine store before, or have other ideas for how to use them!
By the way – make sure to check out my Gardening Page for all kinds of gardening deals, updates, and tips! And if you're on Pinterest, I've been "cultivating" a pretty awesome Project – Gardening board for awhile now! What's growing in your garden these days?

Posted by burnsy483 on 1/29/2013 10:57:00 AM (view original):Re: this quote from you - "The offensive line rates as one of the best in the league in most years Brady has been QB. I can also count many times each game where Brady has over 5 seconds to read the defense, which is an eternity for an NFL QB. He gets more of those chances than most QBs ever see." To which I responded, we watch different games. I've been trying to find something that quantifies what I see, which is Brady making quick decisions and throwing the football, compared to just having a great offensive line. See below link. www.profootballfocus.com/blog/2012/11/07/signature-stat-snapshot-time-to-throw/
Regarding that 2nd play, I've said earlier that we shouldn't punish Brady for trying to push the ball into tight coverage when he doesn't have great receivers, and you've told me that the great QBs have to make those throws. He does that here, and you criticize him for doing so. Which is it?
Brady led a team to record-setting offensive numbers. Cassel took the same great squad and put up good numbers. Are you having trouble seeing the difference?
Also if you put Brady on KC, I would guess he puts up similar numbers to what he did pre-Moss.
I'm starting to understand how you can discredit Brady...you're just seeing different stuff. Maybe you're wearing funny glasses or something?
What team do you root for?
To which I responded, we watch different games.
What actually happened was that the Pats split their running back wide and a linebacker covered him.
Just above average as compared to record-setting. You want a wider gap?
He wasn't an afterthought when he had similar offensive weapons (I'd argue KC's are better. Dwayne Bowe and Jamaal Charles are better than anyone pre-2007) and an average o-line, at best. So I don't see evidence on why he'd be an afterthought now.
You're not comparing the right things here - Brady had record setting, elite numbers when Moss was there. Cassel put up good numbers with Moss and Welker there. If Cassel were on the pre-Moss teams, playing, I doubt he'd play very well.
Dude, the hate is unnecessary and exhausting. He seems like he's a decent person. Just let him be.
I didn't realize you were basing this info on one game.
Is it fair to rip me for giving Brady too much credit, when you don't always give credit to receivers on other teams when they make plays to help the QB?
As described earlier, Cassel had elite weapons that you claim carried Brady to record-setting passing numbers. Brady had weapons that a very good quarterback who appeared in the Super Bowl half a decade earlier could not play well with.
Rolling your eyes again! You might actually be a 16 year old girl. Doesn't root for any team, just jealous that Tom Brady gets pretty women.
Have you met him? You have no idea what kind of person he is. It's unfair to you to pretend you know.
And if you're going to judge an athlete for being a womanizer, then just go ahead and hate the vast majority of athletes. I promise, it's not just Brady.
I haven't touched on this because I don't know how much of an impact it had on their defensive effectiveness.
Posted by loudawg10 on 1/29/2013 4:59:00 PM (view original):cmon guys...its the system. just like it is with the Packers. Aaron Rodgers...not elite. look at the facts. Brett Favre was a drunk that even the Atlanta Falcons didnt want. He comes to the Packers and is a hall of famer (pre dick pics). Then he leaves and Aaron Rodgers steps in and doesnt miss a beat. Then Rodgers sits a game and look what Matt Flynn does. All he did was throw for 480 yards and 6 TDs with the same OL and same receivers that Rodgers had. And Rodgers had never done that. Then Flynn goes to Seattle and cant even beat out a rookie who needs help to pass the "must be this tall to ride" bar. Therefore...Russell Wilson is a better QB than Aaron Rodgers... If Flynn can be successful in the Packer offense but not in the Seattle one, then the same is logically true for Rodgers. And we know that Wilson was successful in the Seahawks scheme. Imagine how amazing he would be in the GB system.
Couple of points: First, Brady isn't a decent person. He's a pompous arrogant a** who thinks he's better than he is because of hype and over rating from people like you. He's a womanizing fool who managed to convince foolish women to be with him because he's famous and has money. I don't like people who are this way. Second, I don't like players, teams, and people who cheat to get ahead. As I pointed out, NE unquestionably cheated to win the SB against the Rams. They should be stripped of that SB title as a result, and it's ridiculous that didn't happen. Lance Armstrong may have cheated, but at least he (finally) admitted it and they did the right thing in stripping his titles. The Patriots go on like nothing happened - players keep their rings, banners fly from the rafters, and it's all a lie. I will forever hate the Patriots as a result, and nothing you can say will change that. The only way I'll ever be neutral toward that team is if the NFL vacates their first SB title, which isn't going to happen because the NFL wanted them to win the title that year.

The blue dot of death
I've been slowly getting used to the blue/red dot thing on object ins & outs, and have occasionally found it useful for rewiring. However, I'd like to echo an earlier plea to be able to disable this functioning.
A subpatch that has been working for months and months suddenly broke yesterday, and all I'd done was to replace one object via paste/replace.
After quite some hair tearing, I noticed that there was a missing connection in the extremely neat rat's nest of wiring. I must have brushed it with the cursor as I was moving my wacom pen,and that was enough to reconnect it.
I'm finding this accidental reconnection to be a general problem, but I usually notice as it happens. What this incident shows is that it's possible to accidently break a patch without realising it's happened, which then makes it pretty difficult to track down the problem.
So if it's technically possible, could we have the option of turning the new connection functionality off?
I had the exact same problem a couple of days ago. That's even how I discovered this new feature…
same here!
i think it would be nice if the functionality was changed to only repatch connections while holding a modifier key (i.e. alt).
cannot resist: personally i think you are all the craziest crazy people on the planet. having waited almost 10 years for this basic feature i've been all loved up on max since its sly introduction. i not only love it, i want it times-10. i want to have blue circles in my brain, on my fingers, coming out my ears. i love them i love them i love them i love them i love them.
now, can we please have also: right-click and change object to another object, retaining connections where possible / drag object between patch-chords and have it 'inserted' with connections where possible / any other cool features you get in those poor-siblings applications like audiomulch and ploguebidule. and more blue circles – anywhere, i don't care, i want more and more, even if they make me unpatch things sometimes (has no-one discovered the 'undo' shortcut or what?!). melodramatic. apologies.
p.s. – @the_man: 'alt'+ click-drag from a blue-circle-enabled chord copies it to somewhere else, rather than just moves it.
I was also surprised to see the new "move cord somewhere else" functionality. Wasn't sure if I'd seen it before and just missed it. I don't like it, it's way too easy to make mistakes, and undo should only be used for real screw-ups. Please allow it to be turned off if possible…
I do like the highlighted circles, and how the outlet highlights if you're closer to it versus the inlet. That's been handy to see where things are going, but being able to also click and move it has been more of a nuisance than a help, at least for me.
I'd like a way to auto-highlight all cords that are attached to an object (without the alt-drag), that would be useful sometimes. You can delete object–>undo and the cords are highlighted, which is an OK workaround… though it messes with your undo/redo stack, a pain if you're a ways back and would like to keep your redos available.
No good deed goes unpunished. Or, perhaps no good deed is ever NOT accompanied by an undo request. :-)
I'm hard pressed to think of a single recent improvement that has contributed to a greater degree to the quality of my life.
@ Greg
And we're still waiting for this roundedness pref setting.
Most complainers seem to agree however (and I must admit myself that I have been using it) that it is a useful addition, but that there are situations where it is undesirable to have it activated.
I did not send a request to the manufacturer of my car to remove the spare wheel from it in future versions because I don't plan on ever having a flat tire. Neither do I keep it on the seat next to me because a flat tire can happen any moment now. It's stored in a proper place.
We all love cycling.
Tp expand slightly on what I said originally – I do mostly agree with Gregory and pid that this is a very useful function, and there are times when it has been a time saver for me. Equally, I've lost time having to delete or move back connections which have moved (jumped sometimes!) when all I've wanted to do is to select them, or I've accidentally brushed them as I move the cursor (I suspect this is more of an issue for pen/tablet users – which I will remain because I find it easier than using a mouse, and it keeps the rsi at bay (mostly)).
I like the idea of a modifier key to reverse whatever the selected state is for this function (ie depending on whether it's turned on or off, do the opposite temporarily). In a very large patch, an accidentally moved connection can end up all kinds of places it shouldn't be and if, in the white heat of patching mania, you don't notice it happen, the possible consequences can be several hours of lost work (I lost half a day trying to figure out why my patch had suddenly gone wrong!)
So I don't think I'm either crazy or ungrateful, but I _would like the option to _not have this functionality – in certain contexts it's actually losing time for me.
I too would like to optionally not have this, as well as the pop-up object palette and all the other functionalities seejayjames mentioned. In an ideal world all the changes from max4 to 5 would be implemented as optional choices, but they aren't. Well, some are..

CD player in glovebox
Hello. Can someone please give me instructions on how to install a CD player in my glove compartment? Pictures would be a plus. I have a '69 Impala. Thanks!
Sponsored Links | |||
If you wanted it to look real trick you could put a face plate in the glove box and have it match the dash or glove box color. Either that or a contrasting color face plate.
I've done a couple
It really isn't that hard. I like to use light aluminum sheet to make the mounting plate. Besides being easy to work with, it look wicked when polished. If your opening is rectangular it is that much more easier.
In my 56 merc (the easies to do so far) I made a flat piece and bent the sides, top and bottom 1/2" back to create tabs to screw the plate to the inside of the glove box opening (the box and door are separate here so the entire box could be taken out and I still had the door to hide the deck). Cut a hole in the plate for the deck and that was it. In my brother's civic, we made a flat plate that fit snug into the plastic box (door and box are one unit here, as with most new cars). Drilled and mounted a couple angle brackets to the inside of the box and then used 3M double sided trim tape to hold the plate to the angles. This box was so small that we had to cut a large portion of the back out so the deck would fit. I think this is a great idea to keep those thieves at bay, and it cleans up the dash a lot. Sorry I don't have any pictures but, with some tinkering and trial and error you should be able to make it work.
"Shoot me again... I ain't dead yet!" |
In my '64 caddy I just got one of those plastic under-dash boxes, flipped it over and attached it to the floor of the glove-box. I had to cut out the back of the glove box for clearance.
It looks like it came that way and I just put a modern stereo in. -alfie |

Is your child old enough to attend the symphony? While we recommend our concerts for ages 8 and over, we also recognize that Utah Valley is home to a disproportionate number of young, aspiring artists. Many children do enjoy the symphony, and many are already practicing long hours to become tomorrow's musicians.
Writing for the Salt Lake Tribune, Catherine Reese Newton recommends that parents consider a number of factors before treating children to the symphony. Consider the following:
- Make a realistic assessment of your child's ability to enjoy a long concert. Look up the music and listen to it at home to see how your child responds.
- Make expectations clear. It's not okay to read, play, color, or snack in the concert hall.
- Electronic games, even muted, are not appropriate at the symphony, as they are distracting to neighboring patrons.
- Remember that children can be unpredictable. If you come with a child, please sit near an exit and be prepared to retreat to the lobby if the child becomes a distraction.
For further considerations, please read the entire article by following this link.
Sorry, the comment form is closed at this time.

Dave Smith Instruments Prophet 12
Think it's just another analog synth? Then you might want to check out this video
At twelve voices, the Prophet 12 boasts the greatest polyphony of any instrument designed by Smith. Each voice features four oscillators capable of generating classic and complex waveforms, a sub-oscillator, resonant analog low- and high-pass filters, and analog VCAs. The new Character section adds a variety of wave shaping and sound sculpting options, like Drive, Hack, Decimation, Girth, and Air. Additional features include a tuned feedback path, a four-tap stereo delay per voice, expanded arpeggiator functionality, deep modulation capabilities, and bi-timbral operation. The LFOs, delay, and arpeggiator can all be synced, either to the internal clock or an external MIDI clock. Two programmable position- and pressure-sensitive touch sliders take the performance controls beyond the standard pitch and mod wheels (also included).
Future Music grabbed DSI founder and MIDI-man Dave Smith for a quick chat at NAMM 2013.

I feel privileged to be a member of a group of individuals who are going the distance and a mile further. What a positive use of our energies. We've made a lot of headway by informing ourselves and sharing that with professionals interested enough to listen and do a little reading. I can't help but believe that if you are involved in ANY way with MS that you won't be able to take your eyes of CCSVI research until it plays out, one way or the other. Now I feel we are truly on the way to answers about Dr. Zamboni's work and on our way to even more interesting discoveries.

jQuery Pin It Button For Images is a free plugin that allows your readers to easily pin images in your blog posts by simple hovering over them and clicking a button. It is highly customizable, so you can adjust it to your own needs. You can download it on the WordPress plugin repository.
As you can obviously see, this page is in work in progress state and it will probably be this way for quite some time.
Page Contents
Selection settings
Enabled and disabled classes
Enabled and disabled classes are an easy way to activate or deactive the "Pin it" button on certain images. The only tricky thing here might be adding a certain class to an image in a blog post. Here's how to do this.
After adding an image to the blog post/page, switch to the Text tab in the text editor. Code for a typical image looks similarly to this:
1 |
 |
To add a class to the image, you just need to add it to the class attribute of the img element. Multiple classes need to be separated by spaces. For example, if you wanted to add a nopin class to the image, the result you're looking for looks like this:
1 |
 |
If an image doesn't have a class attribute, you need to add it. Make sure there isn't more than one class attribute in an image.
Visual settings
Linked page
By default, the plugin links the image to the URL user is visiting. So, if he's pinning an image while visiting the the home page, the pin will link to the home page. If he's visiting a certain blog post, the image will link to that blog post, etc. If you will enable this option (Always link to individual post page), the pin will always link to the individual page with that image (if possible). That means if user pins an image from a blog post while visiting the home page, the pin will link to the blog post, not the home page.
If you selected Title as the description source for the pin and enabled this option, the title of that individual blog post will be used.
For lightbox to work with an image, the image has to link to its full-size version or to itself. The html code looks like this:
1 2 3 |
   |
With this setup, if the user clicks the image (not the Pin it button on it), a modal window is opened with the full-size version of the image.
If you enable lightbox, it works only on posts and pages where JPIBFI is active. That means if you check Disable "Pin it" button for this post on a certain post, lightbox won't work there either.
In the languages folder there is a jpibfi.pot file that allows you to translate the plugin. If you would like to translate the plugin to your language and then share it with the community, you can send it directly to me (use the Hire me form) and it will be added to the next version of the plugin.
- Spanish (es_ES) – Andrew Kurtis WebHostingHub
Downloading an older version of the plugin
Every released version of the plugin is available here, in the "Other versions" section.
If you have any issues with the plugin, report them in the plugin's support forum. I do my best to help people who are experiencing issues with the plugin. Make sure you read sections "Before reporting a problem" and "Reporting a problem" before posting on the forum.
Before reporting a problem
Before reporting a bug please follow the steps listed below. They might actually fix the issue.
- If you're using a caching plugin (like W3 Total Cache) on your website, clear its cache.
Reporting a problem
Few things I would like you to do when reporting a problem:
- Follow the directions in Before reporting a problem section and let me know what happened.
- In Advanced options enable debug mode (make sure to save changes after checking the checkbox). Debug mode doesn't change the way the plugin works, but it gives information that helps with figuring out the issue.
- One thread = one person + one problem.
If you have a problem, start a new thread. Don't post in a thread started by someone else saying "I have the same problem". Any "me too" posts will be ignored. Start a new thread and answer only there. If another problem will occur somewhere in the future, start a new thread instead of reviving the old one. - Include a URL address of the website and make sure the plugin is activated.
If you won't give me the URL address of the website where the problem occurs, unless it's a settings page issue, how can I check out what's happening there? Threads like "I have this XXX problem, I deactivated the plugin and am waiting for the next version to fix it" will be ignored. If the plugin works but things aren't rendering as they should, let me know which browser are you using. - If your issue is resolved, be kind enough to let me know about that.
Common issues
Two Pin It Buttons
The plugin adds exactly one "Pin it" button. If you have more than one "Pin it" button showing up on your website, it's most likely either another plugin adding it or a browser extension/phone app adding it.
ProPhoto theme users
ProPhoto theme has a feature that prevents users from downloading images. This feature interferes with the jQuery Pin It Button For Images plugin. To make things work you need to add pp-overlay to disabled classes (selection settings) and make sure the plugin works in static mode (visual settings). That should make the plugin work correctly with the ProPhoto theme. Please note that the static mode is no longer available in the plugin due to the number of issues it caused. To have the ability to use this setting you need to install an older version of the plugin – 1.33.
Users about the plugin
Below you can find blog posts that feature jQuery Pin It Button For Images
- Best Pinterest Plugin for WordPress @ Snap Creativity
- How to add your own custom rollover 'pin it' buttons to images @ Mamma Saurus
- New WP Plugin: JQuery Pin-It Button @ Rebecca Coleman
If you like the plugin but you really need few new features to be perfectly happy with it, you can hire me (the author of the plugin) to customize it for you. Of course it's a paid service (price depends on what are your needs). If you're interested, go to the "Hire me" page.

Key on Labour
Some extracts from the exchange in Parliament on Tuesday:
Last week we were greeted with a new unemployment rate here in New Zealand: a dramatic fall to 5.3 percent. That is a very strong performance. We have the third-highest employment rate in the OECD , we have very strong results of growth for young people, and, of course, wages are rising faster than inflation. That was greeted with absolute joy by New Zealanders, with one exception—one exception. It was a great annoyance to the Labour Party and, in particular, to Grant Robertson, the doom merchant when it comes to employment. Grant Robertson is worried about a robot taking his job. A cynic could say: "Too late, one already did."—the job he wanted
Well, when we think "TPP", we think Trans-Pacific Partnership; they think "two-position party"—that is what "TPP" says to them. This is because when it comes to David Shearer, he rightfully said to the New Zealand Herald—before he got a good spanking from the leader—"I'll be voting for it. There's no change there. Nothing's changed my mind and the international interest analysis—fantastic." Phil Goff, he is definitely voting for it, because it is, to quote Phil, the same as the China free-trade agreement taken under Labour. Helen Clark, she is a tremendous supporter of the Trans-Pacific Partnership agreement. In fact, every Labour leader in the last 20 years supports the agreement except the current one.
Unsure if Cunliffe does or doesn't. The Cunliffe who was a Minister in the Clark Government would, but the Cunliffe who was Opposition Leader may not.
So when you look at Andrew Little's positions—and I will grant you he has had more positions than the Labour Party has had leader in the last 5 years—he says he hates the Trans-Pacific Partnership agreement. He got asked a pretty simple question by Mark Sainsbury: "Will you withdraw New Zealand from the TPP?" Do you know what his answer was? It was: "We won't." He is going to kick up bobsy-die , but no, no, he will not. So then they asked him: "Will you vote against it?" A pretty simple question. He went: "Yeah, well, we already said—aah—if there—yeah—er—aah—if this legislation—aah. We don't get to vote on TPP," he said. What about pulling out? That apparently is incredibly difficult to do, even though the text, of which he has read 500 of 6,000 pages, says you can just do it by simply putting in notification for 6 months. When he was asked "Why won't you pull out of TPP?"_—this was my particular favourite for the summer—he said: "Because we are the free-trade party." Yeah, right. "We are the free-trade party."
They once were a party of free trade. No longer.
So what he thinks is the problem is that other people, other corporations, other Governments can come to New Zealand and they can put a submission in against our law. That is apparently the problem. Here is a little technical issue. The first issue is, quite right, they can do that. In fact, anybody is free to come to New Zealand and put in a submission at our select committees. It is called open and transparent Government. But what did Andrew Little do at the end of last year? I know. He rushed off to Australia to go to put a submission in against its legislation and last night he was telling me to give David Cameron a ring, so I could put in a submission about their legislation.
Wonderful skewering of the hypocrisy from Labour. They are saying it is awful other Governments can put in submissions on our laws, yet he is himself demanding the NZ Government do the same.
The last issue is theoretically we can be sued under the provisions of investor-State. Well, do not accept my word for how difficult that is. Let me quote this for you, from Phil Goff who said, and quite rightly so because he actually understands what he is talking about when it comes to this area: "The barrier to get investor-State dispute is very high, and the chance is very unlikely." We have had investor-State in this country for 30 years. Forget about a case being won. There has not been a case taken in 30 years.
Quoting Goff – I love it.

text: Product DetailsThe action in A Big Hand for the Little Lady centers around a high-stake poker game. The participants include some of the wealthiest men in the West (among them Jason Robards Jr., Kevin McCarthy, Charles Bickford and Paul Ford). Into this rarefied atmosphere trudges impoverished farmer Henry Fonda, who despite the protests of his wife Joanne Woodward plunks down his last dollars to join the game. Halfway through the proceedings, Fonda falls ill. With quiet desperation, Woodward sits down daintily at the table and says in a firm voice, "Gentlemen, how do you play this game?" End of story?

Gaelle Organic Ultra Sensitive Creme with Colostrum and Edelweiss Reviews
Glowing Skin!
This moisturizer is in a league of its own. I have super sensitive skin and am always careful when trying new products. Usually I am allergic to one of the ingredients even if they are super clean and natural. This Ultra Sensitive Creme is my new favorite and I covet the product. You need so little to hydrate your skin especially if you have normal skin and not super dry. I love that the product ...read morehas Aloe Vera, Jojoba, Coconut Oil, and Edelweiss- a few of my favorite ingredients.

Is Your Blog An Easter Egg Hunt?
Is your blog an Easter egg hunt? Specifically, do you make your target audience work hard to find your blog content?
Without your realizing it, the best parts of your content can be hidden and difficult to find. It's like an Easter egg that's buried too far from sight and your guests have to hunt forever to find it.
11 Actionable blogging tips involving difficult-to-find information
Overlooking or minimizing certain blogging features and activities can hinder your prospects and customers ability to find the information that will lead them to take the actions you desire.
- Lacks effective formatting. You can have the best content in the world but readers view it as a yawn. Understand that over 90% of readers will leave your blog without reading one word! Actionable Blogging Tip: Break your blog content into bite size chunks and ensure that it's easy-to-scan through the use of outlining and other techniques. (Here's thirteen ways to format your content for success.)
- Doesn't incorporate any branding. If your blog looks like it could appear on any business website, you've got a problem. Actionable Blogging Tip: You must integrate your branding into your blog including the voice.
- Doesn't offer a mobile version. In today's always-on media landscape, your website must be available on any device whenever your audience is ready to use it. (Not convinced? Check out these sixty-nine mobile facts.) Actionable Blogging Tip: Ensure that your blog content can be read on a mobile device. You can use a mobile website, mobile app or responsive design to overcome this hurdle.
- Isn't optimized for search. Blogs support search optimization but this doesn't happen magically. Actionable Blogging Tip: Create each post around a keyword phrase. Use magnetic titles and images to attract readers. Also, incorporate keywords into your title and post links. (For more information on using a blog for search optimization, here's what fifteen experts recommend.)
- Doesn't socialize. A blog should be at the center of your social media offering. Chris Brogan refers to a blog as your social media homebase. Actionable Blogging Tip: Socializing your blog involves sharing your blog content across relevant social media platforms where your target audience participates. Additionally, it refers to including social sharing icons to facilitate distribution by your visitors.
- Contains only generic information that exists elsewhere. To attract and retain an audience, you need to provide useful content on a regular basis. Further it's critical to avoid duplicate content or it can hurt your blog's ranking on search engines. Actionable Blogging Tip: Use an editorial calendar to help you plan your content for a month at a time. Additionally, ensure that your content is unique and useful for your readers. If you're not sure what to offer them, then ask either at the end of a blog post or within it.
- Buries your best content near the end of the column. Bear in mind that many content consumers are just content grazers. They're looking for an easy way to gather and snack on information. Actionable Blogging Tip: You need to put your best content front and center because you can't hope that a reader will keep slogging through until they get to your point. Make it easy for prospects to get their questions answered.
- Doesn't include an About page. Readers and visitors want to see who's behind the content. Actionable Blogging Tip: Make your About page easy-to-find and include images so that readers know that there are people behind your blog.
- Has no way to contact you. You'd think that this point would be a slam dunk but the reality is that many bloggers put so much work into the other aspects of their blog they omit the contact page. Actionable Blogging Tip: Provide visitors with a way to contact you. It's even better if you offer more than one option such as phone number, chat, email and social media.
- Doesn't link to appropriate product on your website. You can't hope that your audience will leave your blog and head straight to the appropriate page of your product. Actionable Blogging Tip: Make sure that you link to the specific page on your website especially where your content references a specific product. Additionally, make the product page link back to the blog post.
- Lacks links to related content. Your blog posts should link to relevant information both on your blog or website and third party sites where applicable. Actionable Blogging Tip: Include at least one or two links to your own content as well as to third party content.
Regardless of the time of year, make sure that you're not creating an Easter egg hunt on your blog where important information is obfuscated.
Is your blog content obscured without your realizing it?
Happy Marketing,

Read the discussion re: treaties. Lots of unintended consequences are possible. Not worth the risk for a "feel good" moment.
quote:Look. Politicking is just one of those things in D.C. Can't stand it, but both sides do it and it is infuriating.
The problem with your approach is that as soon as the republicans can make hay with this treaty, they'll sign off on it. It has nothing to do with the content of the treaty, if it did, they would've raised objections in the 4 years since it was written by the Bush team, instead of supporting it right up until March of this year.
But many Republicans, who accounted for the 38 opposing votes, have been vocal in their opposition to the treaty, which they say infringes on U.S. sovereignty. "I do not support the cumbersome regulations and potentially overzealous international organizations with anti-American biases that infringe upon American society," Sen. Jim Inhofe (R-Okla.) said on the Senate floor. "I and many of my constituents who home-school or send their children to religious schools have justifiable doubt that a foreign body based in Geneva, Switzerland, should be deciding what is best for a child at home in Utah," Sen. Mike Lee (R-Utah) said, also speaking from the floor.
And former presidential candidate Rick Santorum, a former Pennsylvania senator, has taken up opposition to the treaty as a new post-election cause, calling it an "egregious move to deny parents of children with disabilities the right to do what they think is in their child's best interest."
Today, U.S. Senator Kay Bailey Hutchison issued this statement following the Senate vote on the Convention on Rights for People with Disabilities Treaty: "I have always supported the principles embodied in the Americans with Disabilities Act and I have worked to ensure we provide the very best care and assistance to our disabled veterans. "The A.D.A. provides the highest standard of protections and considerations in the world to special needs populations in this country. Additional support is provided to disabled veterans through a variety of federal laws and resources. "The Convention on Rights for People with Disabilities Treaty wrongly attempts to impose standards on other nations through the United Nations and might well have unintended consequences here at home."
Read the discussion re: treaties. Lots of unintended consequences are possible. Not worth the risk for a "feel good" moment.
Many treaties have become the law of the land. And I'm not sure why you phrase it as trumping the Constitution. The definition of disability in the treaty doesn't have much to do with the Constitution.
Call it partisan politics, but why would Republicans foolishly alienate an entire block of voters - knowing the PR ramifications of not signing off on this, what we are to believe, is a "symbolic" treaty - if they didn't believe that there were indeed unintended consequences?
Because the fundagelical wing is against it, for whatever loony reason they've come up with.
Because the fundagelical wing is against it, for whatever loony reason they've come up with.
The bill did absolutely nothing. Every. Single. Thing. in the bill is already US law.
Thus, the only thing the bill accomplishes if sacrificing American autonomy to the bloated UN.

The BJP is unlikely to announce a formal national campaign committee, of which Gujarat CM Narendra Modi was made chairman at the party's recent Goa conclave.
Rather, Modi and party chief Rajnath Singh are setting up sub-committees to assign campaign work "in consultation with the Parliamentary Board", the top decision-making body of the BJP.
"Once in place and functioning, these sub-committees will de facto comprise the national campaign committee," a senior BJP leader told HT.
In other words, rather than a national committee spawning sub-committees, the campaign will be organised the other way round, with the sub-committees guided by Modi and Singh becoming the de facto national campaign committee.
The party's Parliamentary Board – of which Modi too is a member – will meet again on July 18 at 3 pm.
The idea, sources say, is not to undermine Modi but to give the exercise a participatory look, rather than making it seem that a Team Modi – separate from the party – is shaping up.

American Scientist's first Scientists' Bookshelf section appeared in April 1943, written in its entirety by Harvard University geologist Kirtley F. Mather. The table of contents for the issue noted, somewhat confusingly, "The inauguration of a department by Dr. Mather for the consideration of important publications is a noteworthy addition to any periodical." If Mather was the author of this line, he can be pardoned: After he'd completed the last of the ten reviews included in the section, covering physics, medicine, archaeology and more, a little convolution of syntax would be understandable.
Mather stayed on as editor of the new section, and he continued to write many of the reviews himself, displaying a conversational style and eclectic and wide-ranging interests. In July 1954, he retired from Harvard and from his Bookshelf duties. In a "Valedictory" essay, he wrote:
Book-reviewing is an art, not a science. . . . There are few, if any, objective standards by which all books may be appraised. . . . Rugged individualism occupies one of its few remaining strongholds, and opportunity is still afforded for diversified personal expression. No book reviewer should imagine for a moment that he represents anybody but himself when proceeding with his task.
With these words, he departed, leaving the Bookshelf to be filled with "guest reviews by invitation of the editor." A number of different editors have headed the section since, but all subsequent issues have featured reviews by authorities in their field, along with a few written by American Scientist staff.
The reviews reprinted in this issue originally ran between 1943 and 1963. We have a few more favorites than would fit in print, so in the coming weeks, we'll post some additional classics at http://americanscientist.org/bookshelf. If you find a review you especially like in a back issue, please let us know. (Reviews published from 1998 to the present are freely available on this website; earlier issues are archived in JSTOR, available through many university libraries.)
For language lovers, we mention two more milestones of the era: In 1951, the words "book shelf" in the title of the section were joined up. And in 1955, the apostrophe in Scientist's was moved to follow the final s, reflecting the shift toward publishing reviews by a variety of reviewers, and emphasizing that good criticism is a collaborative effort.

Pretty boards, I will check them out. Oh Dungeness crab one of my favorite foods but I can only afford it like once a year. It kills me I am surrounded (literally) by water full of Dungeness but NO boat to go out and fish for it. If we win the lotto, we are getting a boat just for crab!!! oxoxo Clarice
ReplyDeleteThis post has made me so homesick for San Francisco...I miss Dungeness every year. I just can not get it here this year...the crab melt pictured on Ann's gorgeous boards are beyond beautiful. I have been coveting those sandwich boards for a while! I love the board I own and use it constantly....it gets better with age!
Beautiful Mary!Mari, I have two of Ann's boards and just love them! What a great idea to feature them on your blog. You are so lucky to have access to fresh Dungeness crab. They are not available in our part of the country. I always indulge when I am out west. :-) We do have delicious blue crab though, and I think this recipe would work very well with that substitution. Thanks so much for sharing the sandwich directions.

The Green Bay Packers are serious about elevating the competition on their defensive line. Tuesday, they signed the third veteran free agent for that position group alone.
Former Miami Dolphins defensive end Phillip Merling will join Anthony Hargrove and Daniel Muir in the race for roster spots this spring and summer. In addition to that trio, the Packers also used second- and fourth-round draft choices on defensive linemen Jerel Worthy and Mike Daniels, respectively.
Four years ago, Merling was one of the draft's top pass-rushing prospects. But after a disappointing stint with the Dolphins, he is more likely a hedge against Hargrove's eight-game NFL suspension, which is currently being appealed.
Merling was the No. 32 overall pick of the 2008 draft but managed just 3.5 sacks with the Dolphins, and none in the past two seasons. He was waived last month. Here's what Miami Herald beat writer Armando Salguero wrote upon Merling's departure: "He missed most of 2010 after tearing his Achilles' while jogging on his own. He was always in the cross-hairs of coaches who complained he did not practice hard enough often enough. He has been missing the current offseason workout. And he didn't exactly produce on game days, either. Fact is Merling's rookie year was probably his most promising. collecting 26 tackles, an interception, a sack and a fumble recovery."
Sounds like a player who could use a fresh start.
The Packers now have 12 defensive linemen on their roster. Like Hargrove, veteran Mike Neal also has a pending NFL suspension -- the first four games of the season. Still, that's a lot of bodies for a team that uses three defensive linemen in its base defense and two when it's in nickel. May the best men win.
Note: The Packers also waived quarterback Nick Hill and tight Cameron Ford.

Senior Wal-Mart (NYSE:WMT) managers will make a trip to India during the week to meet with a government-appointed panel that is investigating the company's lobbying activities in the country.

UnNews:Capitalism continues despite protests
From Uncyclopedia, the content-free encyclopedia
Capitalism continues despite protests
Fake News that's honestly fake |
Tuesday, March 28, 2017, 04:30:59 (UTC)

19 October 2011
NEW YORK, USA -- Frustrated protesters have today bemoaned the continuation of capitalism despite their global demonstrations continuing. The protests that started over a month ago on Wall Street, are a reaction to various graphs showing greed and inequality on their x and y axes. The action initially took the form of persistent low-pitch whining noises, but have since escalated to camping and using laptops.
Though over a month into the occupation, and with the movement spreading around the world, many instances of people doing capitalism are still being recorded.
26 year old iPhone user Jenny Yoghurt is one of the 'Occupy Wall Street' protesters, and she spoke of her exasperation: "It's not as if we're asking for an end to growing-old or plagiarism, we just think profit should be stopped, and we will stay camped here until it does, unless I run out of vacation."
Celebrity support for the protest has come in quick and fast. Rosanne Barr told the New York crowd that she would immediately cease purchasing. Michael Moore criticised Wall Street for concentrating on finance to such an extent that it no longer contained any walls of note at all.
People have also criticised the movement. Right-wing talk show host Rush Limbaugh summed up the feeling of many conservative public figures, remarking that his anger has "nothing to do with Obama being black."

KALAMAZOO, Mich. - Toledo will face ECHL American Conference champion Charlotte in the first round of the Kelly Cup playoffs.
The Walleye will tangle with the Checkers in the postseason opener on Tuesday at Lucas County Arena at 7 p.m. Toledo will then host Charlotte in game 2 of the best-of-five series on Wednesday at 7.
Toledo posted a 3-2-0 record against the Checkers (43-21-7) this season.
Charlotte rallied to beat Florida last night to clinch the top seed.
Toledo (35-30-7) finished with the eighth and final seed after losing 3-2 to Kalamazoo last night.
Reading remained ahead of the Walleye and claimed the seventh seed with a 8-4 win over Trenton last night.
The Walleye could not hold a 2-0 lead they built early in the second period against Kalamazoo. Anthony Perdicaro and Kyle Page each scored their first professional goals.
But the Wings rallied with three unanswered goals to win.
Andrew Fournier scored the game-winner for Kalamazoo (42-20-10) with 2:49 left in the game. Fournier threw a pass in front of the Toledo net that went off of defenseman J.C. Sawyer's skates and through the legs of goalie Jordan Pearce.
Seventy-two ECHL games were played this season, and it came down to the third period of the final contest of the regular season to determine the playoff scenario.
Charlotte trailed Florida 3-1 in the third period but came back to tie it to earn a 94th point. Kalamazoo and South Carolina also tied the Checkers with 94 points. But Charlotte won the tiebreaker with the most overall wins (43).
Toledo travels to Charlotte for Game 3 on Friday. If necessary, the final two games would be played next Sunday and Monday in Charlotte.
Last night, it took Toledo just 47 seconds to get on the board as Perdicaro scored his first goal.
Perdicaro, who appeared in his 10th game, scored on the first shot of the game. J.C. Sawyer and Mark Nebus earned the assists.
Perdicaro scored with a wrist shot from the left circle.
Page then scored with a shot from the blue line just 1:52 into the second period. Page, a recent graduate of Bowling Green State University, scored a power play goal in his 12th game.
Jonathan Carlsson and Scooter Smith assisted on the marker that gave the Walleye a 2-0 lead.
But Kalamazoo scored with 13 seconds left in the second period to pull within one. The Wings then tied it 6:27 into the third period.
Pearce (15-16-2) finished with 33 saves on 36 shots. Wings goaltender Ryan Nie had finished with 32 saves on 34 shots.
Kalamazoo took the season series with a 7-6-0 record against the Walleye.
Kalamazoo also clinched the North Division title with the comeback victory. It was the second straight night that the Wings defeated the Walleye.
"I really liked the effort we gave these past two nights," coach Nick Vitucci said. "To lose both of these games was a shame. I can't complain about our effort."
Single-game tickets for the post-season are $17. Tickets for seniors and children (12-and-under) are $15. Tickets can be purchased at the Lucas County Arena box office, by phone at 419-725-WALL, or online at www.toledowalleye.com.

Hi. I just wanted to come on and introduce myself.
My name is Laura and I am starting what is probably the 20th attempt to lose weight and get healthy. I am 35 years old and have been battling my weight since I was 20. I am currently more than 100 lbs overweight and have hit the bottom. A co-worker lost her husband yesterday to a heart attack at age 47 and that really hit me. I did not know this person very well, but I was quickly reminded that life is short and we cannot take our health for granted.
So I am here and ready to make the necessary changes to finally get myself healthy. Right now I am starting by trying to get in a walk in the neighborhood every day - or, since I live in MN and it's winter, getting on the Wii Fit or some other fitness inside daily. My eating plan is called the "No S" plan. It's something I found in a library book awhile back. Basically, you have no seconds, no sweets and no snacks except on days beginning with "s". This would include Saturdays and Sundays, as well as "special" days such as birthdays and holidays. The "no seconds" is self explanatory as is the "no snacks". These two really help me out, because my main problem isn't what I eat, it's how much. The "non sweets" portion does not mean no sugar at all, but it does mean nothing overt such as cake, pie, cookies, candy, ice cream, etc. Anything that would normally be considered a treat rather than a normal part of a healthy diet. It's worked for me in the past and I'm looking forward to trying again.
The other main factor for me is water. I don't drink near enough. I'm going to really try to up my water intake in the next couple of months to help with the loss.
I look forward to meeting those who are sharing in my struggle of losing weight. I know that with the support of my wonderful husband and family and all of you here I can do it this time!!!
"I can do all things through Christ who gives me strengh." Phil 4:13

AMICHOCÓ´s team visited the municipality of Turbo and met with the field team of FUNDAUNIBAN and the Normal Public School which is the project´s local beneficiary organization. In this meeting the project´s timelines, activities and budget was presented and discussed with the 2 institutions. Additionally, the monthly action plan was created and agreed upon; this plan includes the official start of the project with the children, the definition (with the children) of where the Children´s Land will be developed and meetings with local institutions that have the potential of becoming allies of the initiative.
The Normal Public School was visited and its environmental program and projects were presented to AMCIHOCÓ. One of the main challenges of the project will be to integrate the Children´s Land initiative into the schools environmental curriculum; the professors in charge of this area within the school were very pleased with the prospect and very enthusiastic about getting the project going.
It´s important to point out that Colombia and the Urabá region have been suffering from the worst rainy season in decades and most private, public and social organizations are currently trying to tackle the natural emergency in which the entire country is immersed. Turbo was greatly affected by the rainy season and over the last months most of its main roads have been closed; this has affected the project´s timeline, but we have made adjustments to the overall timeframe in order to make up for lost time and meet all of the projects goals.
Project Reports on GlobalGiving are posted directly to globalgiving.org by Project Leaders as they are completed, generally every 3-4 months. To protect the integrity of these documents, GlobalGiving does not alter them; therefore you may find some language or formatting issues.

Our Rating:
To most creatives, print quality is everything. But every so often a product comes along that reminds you that usability is just as important – and unfortunately that's where the Phaser 7800 falls down.
On output quality alone, the Phaser 7800 would be an Editor's Choice. With its 1,200 x 2,400dpi print engine, it produces A3 prints that are superbly detailed; both type and vectors are beautifully rendered.
Output was perfectly colour accurate when the printer was calibrated with the PhaserMeter – a rebadged X-Rite ColorMunki with Phaser-specific software. The PhaserMeter is bundled with the 7800/GX model we reviewed. You can buy the printer without it as the DX, and without the extra trays – that make it fridge-sized – as the DN.
All the features you'd expect are here: Pantone emulation, duplex, plus 2GB RAM and a 160GB hard drive to make printing take mere seconds. However, it felt like the wheels came off far too easily. Even with the latest driver and firmware, we encountered seemingly random bugs. For example, some print jobs would mysteriously fail due to paper mismatches, but then jobs with the identical paper size would work just fine.
Xerox has attempted to make the 7800 easy to use. Set-up is a doddle. The colour LCD screen offers detailed, though not always accurate, info about the state of your print jobs.
We'd still recommend the Phaser 7800 for its output, but Xerox needs to exorcise the mischievous ghost inside it before we give it a full thumbs-up.
