I need to check the dimensions of images in a directory. Currently it has ~700 images.
I just need to check the sizes, and if the size does not match a given dimension, it will be moved to a different folder. How do I get started?
You can use the Python Imaging Library (aka PIL) to read the image headers and query the dimensions.
One way to approach it would be to write yourself a function that takes a filename and returns the dimensions (using PIL). Then use the
os.path.walk function to traverse all the files in the directory, applying this function. Collecting the results, you can build a dictionary of mappings
filename -> dimensions, then use a list comprehension (see
itertools) to filter out those that do not match the required size.

text: I'm not going to type out my son's life story here, but I'll give a brief rundown. He's never been diagnosed with Autism, but I do believe he has some characteristics of the condition. I'm a single mom who works full time. My son has been able to stay in school and not get in too much trouble until this year. He's an 8th grader, 15 years old, and he was recently expelled from regular school for an outburst in which he made "terroristic" threats to a teacher. He was placed in alternative education two weeks ago. On Saturday night he got angry with me because I would not buy him a pack of cigarettes, which he's managed to become addicted to by picking up butts off the ground and smoking them, and I think over spring break his friend gave him some as well when he was staying with my mother. His tendency is to take things to the extreme when he doesn't get his way, almost like a chemical imbalance. He threatens to hurt himself, get himself thrown in jail, or kill himself if I don't give in. Alot of times I do give in, because I don't know what else to do and I sure don't want him dead or in jail. But one thing I will not do is buy him cigarettes. So he ran out the door, down the street, and according to the police officer who saw him, threw himself in front of a bus. Luckily the bus did not hit him. The police officer, after receiving my consent, took him to the ER. They recommended he be placed in an inpatient program so he could get help from a doctor immediately. He's been there since Saturday night. When I left him, he was perfectly fine, coherent, not suicidal, and in pretty good shape. As of last night when I talked to him on the phone, I can tell he is not doing well at all. He begged me to come and get him, said he wanted to kill himself, called me a bad mother (which is not something he normally does), and just seemed to be doing really poorly. While he's been in the hopsital, they've started him on prozac and depakote. I was told the depakote was to treat his mood disorder. Seems to me like its making him worse. I'm not even sure he has a mood disorder. I believe most of his behavior stems from a neurological condition. How should I proceed? How much control do I have over influencing the doctor? Can I pull him out and put him in an outpatient program? Please help.

From the time you got hired, how long did it take for you not to be "the new guy"?
· Share ▾
Caf, Jennifer D., and maitani liked this
4 years? Realistically maybe until just this year (11 years)?
Current job -- about fifteen weeks. Previous job -- just over 25 months. However, with a recent schedule change, I effectively became the new guy again.
At my last job, until there was another new person hired in my area which was 4 years.
One week.
Almost exactly a year for me it would seem.
Current job, about a year or so, when we hired another person for a similar position. If that hadn't happened, it might've been a few more years.
Same as @lris
Three years. Two more senior people left and I had to onboard two new people. Our interim dept head at the time wasn't in my building, so I was their daily touchpoint for the first month.
Until one of the librarians retired and we hired his replacement, so...4 years, I think?

With 2 kids under 2 i don't get to many games these days, but it's only a matter of time before i'm back at the games & with kids in tow.

Yields on the 10-year U.S. Treasury note hit 4% yesterday for the first time since June. And I think yields will keep rising in the months ahead.
But the United States is getting lucky.
Thanks to the damage the Greek debt crisis has done to the euro, I think the rise will be gradual indeed. Traders speculating on a spike in Treasury yields and a collapse in the U.S. dollar under the weight of the estimated $2.43 trillion in notes and bonds that the U.S. government will try to sell this year to finance a soaring deficit will have to wait until next year.
The Greek crisis, you know the one where it's still quite possible that a member of the European Monetary Union will default on its debt, has had a profound effect on where the world puts its cash reserves. In the last quarter of 2009, the share of global currency reserves in U.S. dollars climbed to 62.1%, according to a March 31 quarterly report by the IMF (International Monetary Fund.) The euro's share dropped to 27.4%. The shift toward the dollar and away from the euro reversed a trend that had seen overseas central banks looking to diversify away from the dollar.
And the dollar is getting a bigger piece of a bigger pie too.
Global reserves increased 10% in 2009, again according to the IMF, to $8.1 trillion. That money has to go somewhere.
And right now U.S. Treasuries look like a pretty attractive somewhere—if you're an overseas investor or central bank that profits when the dollar rises against other currencies. For overseas investors, a gradual increase in U.S. interest rates is offset by the safety of the Treasury market and the gradual appreciation in the dollar because of higher interest rates. (U.S. investors in Treasuries don't get that bang from any dollar appreciation. For them, gradually rising interest rates that push up the dollar don't provide any offset to the gradual decline in bond prices from rising yields.)
It doesn't hurt the Treasury market either that riskier dollar-denominated alternatives aren't paying much more than long Treasuries do now. The spread between the yield on investment-grade corporate bonds and Treasuries has narrowed dramatically as the U.S. economy has recovered. There's now not a big enough difference in yield to make investment-grade corporate bonds an effective competitor to 10-year Treasuries at 4%.
All this isn't enough to keep the yields on 10-year Treasuries from climbing—selling $2.43 trillion in bonds in 2010 is a heavy load to lift. But it is enough to keep the increase in yields very gentle.

Medicine For Toothache – What Works?
When it comes to toothache, we all experience a bout of toothache or tooth pain at some point in our lives. Toothache can be excruciating, so finding something that can quell that pain as quickly as possible is the key here.
There are many options when it comes to relieving tooth pain from natural remedies including natural oils, home ingredients and herbs, to over the counter medicinal substances that can get to the pain quickly.
Depending on what you prefer will depend on the route you choose, as both options offer options to quell and relieve the pain you are suffering.
Medicine For Toothache
Ok, so natural options aside here, what types of medicines can help relieve tooth ache?
Depending on the ferocity and severity of the pain, over the counter medicines could well be a good option for painkillers. The usual options such as Paracetamol, Aspirin and Ibuprofen will generally be powerful enough to relieve mild tooth ache. Again, the results of these types of medicines, will depend on the severity of your toothache, and also the cause too.
Prescription medicines for toothache can also be sort. These obviously need to be prescribed by your doctor or GP. These are generally stronger and can help relive sharper and more severe tooth ache and pains.
These types of medicines include "Oxycodone", "Vicodin ES", "Percocet" and many others. Visiting your doctor and discussing the discomfort you are in will help to prescribe the best painkiller for you.
Medicines for toothache as mentioned throughout, can come in many different forms and depending on your situation will depend on which route to relief is best for you.
But, for actual medicines for toothache, work out what is causing the pain in the first place if possible. Try over the counter methods, and if this fails to hit the spot, book an appointment to see your doctor for further checks and treatment.

|Enteric-Coated TRPM8 Agonist D-3263 Hydrochloride (Code C82660)
|Terms & Properties
Preferred Name: Enteric-Coated TRPM8 Agonist D-3263 Hydrochloride
Definition: An enteric-coated orally bioavailable formulation of the hydrochloride salt of a small-molecule agonist for transient receptor potential melastatin member 8 (TRPM8 or Trp-p8) with potential antineoplastic activity. The active ingredient in enteric-coated TRPM8 agonist D-3263 hydrochloride binds to and activates TRPM8, which may result in an increase in calcium and sodium entry; the disruption of calcium and sodium homeostasis; and the induction of cell death in TRPM8-expressing tumor cells. This agent may decrease dihydrotestosterone (DHT) levels, which may contribute to its inhibitory effects on prostate cancer and BPH. TRPM8 is a transmembrane calcium channel protein that is normally expressed in prostate cells and appears to be overexpressed in benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) and in prostate cancer.

So, you like a bit of winter walking, eh?
And making Snow Angels is getting a tad boring?
Maybe you should have a go at this:
Yeah, I can sense your surprise. A post that's not all about me. Make the most of it.
So, you like a bit of winter walking, eh?

Yup, according to MWIS and other sources, the cold white stuff is forecast to fall far and wide during the next week and over Easter.
It's just pure luck that two months ago we booked a couple of family-rooms at Windermere YHA for next weekend. Jammy, eh?
Should be fun. At least the choccy eggs won't melt 😎
Geoff called in on Wednesday, he had no work on but couldn't stay at his place because his wife was working from home due to the snow. By strange chance, I was in the same boat, but I aced him by virtue of the fact that my girls were both off school due to snivelly colds, AND Chris was working from home due to the snow.
After a cuppa we both managed to "remember" that we had parcels that needed taking to the post office. Rather too conveniently I was then asked to buy and deliver a paper for the Outlaws and to return with some milk. Naturally, I grabbed the chance to get some fresh air and to try out the new Quechua Bionnassay Trousers that Chris gave to me for Christmas.
We only did a short loop around the village, but after delivering the paper and sending the mail we got sidetracked and somehow ended up in The Anchor. We managed to take four hours to walk the loop, which is less than a couple of miles. Now how did that happen?
Of course, there are some mandatory clickable snow-based pics...
As you can see, we've not had much snow here although there are places within ten miles where they've had over ten times as much.
As for the new trews, they were great. I'll concoct some sort of initial review after a few more days of use.
Fed up of rain, snow and wind?
TBH, I'm not. I like such conditions.
That said, I'm aware that there are folk out there that don't like the wintry weather. They sit around moaning about it, wishing that it could be changed.
Well, I've found the answer to all of their prayers. Now they can do something about their local weather conditions!
According to LFTO/Trail, all they need is a pair of these new Mountain Hardwear OutDry gloves:
Click the pic to open the original article.
Just back from a great weekend in the Lake District snow. It'll take me a while to write up the report and sort all the pics, but here's a taster of what the weather had to offer:
Sheffield Pike
A section of The Gospel according to St. MWIS of the Lakes:
The usual rules will be applied with rigour (the first one to fall over buys the beers).
We have Snow! Not quite in abundance, but hey, any snow's good. Maybe we'll have a proper winter after all. Excellent!
Not a partridge in a pear tree
OK, so it's no great shakes to some folk, but here it's quite unusual at this time of the year.

For this paper you should do the following things:
- Pick an issue or topic related in some way to anything we've talked about so far in class, especially something you don't feel is covered sufficiently by mainstream media. Think especially about what has connected most strongly to you personally. I strongly encourage you to go through the blog so far, Heffernan's Magic and Loss, and On the Media and look at the class's posts for ideas.
- Explore through extensive research how this topic is covered through both mainstream and non-mainstream convergent media, making sure to thoroughly cover as many of the media forms as possible, i.e., print, audio, video, digital, and as many combinations thereof you can find. For many – if not most – of your research papers, you will draw mostly on primary sources, because you will be researching ideas and topics that perhaps haven't yet been thoroughly excavated intellectually.
- Draw some conclusions about media coverage of your topic, especially in the realm of class discussions and readings. Can it only be represented by divergent voices? Do you see it as part of the mainstream?
- Document all of your sources, including all links, in MLA format.
- Turn in your final draft in Print (paper) form, but have a digital copy prepared for possible archiving (I'll explain this further in class).
This assignment should be approximately 3,000-3,500 words.
We've talked for the past few weeks about different messages and kinds of divergent voices, and how they are seen and heard through convergent media. As you get into your work for your research paper it will be time to start finding and expressing your own divergent voice, or at least one of them.
We've spent some time in the weeks so far reading and discussing Magic and Loss: The Internet as Art and podcasts like On the Media, 99% Invisible, Radiolab, and Reply All that have hopefully given you some ideas for some projects you may wish to develop. In addition, here is a loose collection of guidelines for your semester project:
- You should choose which media you'll work within for your project (podcast, blog, video, mixed media) based on your own strengths and predilections. Remember, this is a seminar, not a technical writing or production course, so don't choose a medium that you will need technical instruction on. (You may choose a medium you are not totally familiar with, but only if you foresee achieving proficiency through this project.) If you choose anything which needs equipment, you are responsible for stating your equipment needs in your project proposal. You might be able to check out equipment from the CAM department, but equipment is limited.
- This is may be an individual project, but I encourage you to do it with a partner. If you choose to do the project with a partner, both of you must show me the scope of the work and each of your tasks within that scope. I am much more likely to approve a team project in which each person works in a different technical medium (e.g., one person does the writing, one does the video production), as this would be right in line with the convergent element of the media.
- BE UNIQUE! Try to do something you're interested in, something you feel needs to be said or done in the media that has not already been done in the way you want to do it. Think if an issue you'd like to address, a point of view you'd like to represent, a cause you'd like to take up, a thing you'd like to create. Look for examples of like-minded voices and projects online and ask yourself how your project might dovetail with these.
- I find that many students choose research topics and semester projects that are related in some way, but this is not a requirement. Like the Research Paper, if you're having trouble generating ideas for your Semester Project you might want to go back in the blog and research some past students' work on theirs.
- Submit a written proposal for your project to me anytime before Thursday, 10/27 either in class or via email, including a summary of the project and the steps you'll take in doing it from 10/27-12/1.
- Every week after October 27 I expect a weekly update on your progress on your project, including what you've done that week, what the next steps are, and any questions you may have as you go along. You should do this via the blog, and we'll also use Thursdays as workshops.
Keep in mind that while the guidelines are loose, the attention and direction you put to the project should be rigorous. Also keep in mind that your project might end up something different than it started, which is completely in line with the purpose of the project. You are expanding your knowledge and boundaries as you go.
Thursday, 10/13 – Have your research topic approved by me
Monday, 10/17 & Thursday, 10/20 – This week is a good time to work out ideas for Semester Projects before submitting them to me as proposals. Have 2 or 3 ideas ready to talk about.
Thursday, 10/27 – Have your semester project proposal approved by me. This means you should send your proposal to me well before this date, so you can begin work on the project upon approval.

Bloomberg Launches Malaysian Foreign Currency Sukuk Index
Bloomberg executives announced June 8 the launch of the Bloomberg Malaysian Foreign Currency Sukuk Index (BMSSUTR), a non-ringgit denominated index developed in conjunction with Bank Negara Malaysia.
The new Bloomberg index provides a global benchmark for the performance of sukuk bonds and the ability to track movements of foreign currency issues.
"The Islamic financial marketplace is growing rapidly and there is high demand for more transparency, pricing, risk and return information," said Gerard Francis, a Bloomberg Professional service executive. "We believe that this latest index will become the instrument of choice to help investors and fund managers maximize their investments in Shariah finance. It is also another sign of our 20 years of experience and commitment to the region."
"The launch of the benchmark index for the Malaysian foreign currency sukuk market is timely given the growth of foreign currency sukuk issuances in the country, and this marks another key milestone that will contribute towards internationalization of Islamic finance," commented Muhammad bin Ibrahim, Deputy Governor of Bank Negara Malaysia.
The BMSSUTR index consists of foreign currency sukuk issues listed on Bursa Malaysia or on the Labuan International Financial Exchange. The index gives fund managers the ability to conduct performance attribution, helping to manage their foreign currency exposure. It includes investment-grade Malaysian foreign currency sukuk priced in U.S. dollars.
Bloomberg recently created another index with the Association of Islamic Banks in Malaysia (AIBIM), the Bloomberg-AIBIM-Bursa Malaysia Sovereign Shariah Index (BMSSI), which provides a benchmark of performance for investors seeking exposure to Shariah-compliant Malaysian Ringgit-denominated Government securities.

Breast pain is a common occurrence. Most women have breast pain at one time or another, often more in one breast than the other. Sometimes the pain is only in one breast, and frequently in only one area of one breast. Breast pain is a common complaint and most likely not related to a serious concern. Sometimes pain seems to be radiating from the breast, when actually it's really from a nearby anatomic location, such as the shoulder, neck or chest wall (usually caused by arthritis). Women may suffer from costochondritis and this may appear to be breast related pain. For this reason the mammogram is often normal when breast pain is present.

Johannesburg - Flank Deon Stegmann and hooker Willie Wepener have been ruled out of the Bulls' Super Rugby clash against the Stormers at Newlands on Saturday.
Team doctor Org Strauss on Tuesday confirmed that Stegmann's troublesome hamstring did not recover sufficiently to play in the Super Rugby clash.
Wepener picked up an infection of some facial muscle and was ruled unfit to play.
He will probably be replaced as back-up hooker by Bongi Mbonambi, former SA U-20 representative.
Coach Frans Ludeke will announce his team to play the Stormers on Wednesday.
No big deal the Bulls trio looks better without Stegman and Wepener is 2nd choice.. whats the big deal!
We've got it covered.
No rats welcome here, go entertain yourself somewhere else.
@Blou Daan - it sounds like you are the Bulls player 23. Are you travelling with them this weekend seeing that you know them so well? You sound like a teenager going on about knowing someone famous that once gave her a autograph. Do you hang out with them at braai's etc. Pathetic statement.
Pathetic Siphiwe.
The team is even stronger without them
32-13 Bulls
Another walk in the park
Last time I had a double blow was long time ago, I was just out of school, first year working, driving a Ford Escourt 1600 Sport going to Durbs for a long weekend, anyway as I got to Pinetown there where these 2 gorgeous girls hitch-hiking............You can't even imagine what the rest of the story was like!!
I know this has nothing to do with the topic, but I just wanted to share it with you guys, it's a much better story than what you get from the usual suspects on this forum! SOS week after week!
Hell, you must be extremely bored, village idiot of note
You see, there you go again, SOS you, Isak, Bulldozer, Blue and the rest of the gang are all coupled on the tote......You just can't have a normal conversation!
It will be totally pointless to try and have one with you
And as for the village idiot......Who's ringing the bell for you tonight?
So much for intelligent conversation.
@Fake Saffa you have never had one intelligent conversation on any of these rugby threads.
How do you even speak with all those chins.
This is a huge blow for the Stormers lol
Sal AL die stormers asb sondag weer comment? en WeerProbeer comment na die seisoen- soos die laaste 12 jaar?
Sal al die stormpies asb Sondag weer comment? en dan ook weer na die' seisoen- soos die laaste 12 jaar? ;-)
Moenie worry nie, die goed doen dit oor en oor en oor, wat is dit 11 jaar nou?
Ek het nog nooit van so iets pateties in wereldrugby gehoor nie, in fact, wereld sport.
Ken jy enige professionele sportspan wat in 11 jaar, 33 kompetisies NOOIT 'n beker kon wen nie. Nie een nie
@ saffa, die oostelike provinsie sukkel ook al vir lank, maar hulle was lanklaas in top kompetisies. selfs die griekwas, leeus en cheetahs het darem iets gewen!
woot go #STORMERS !!!!
I think the bulls should rest a few more players... Just to make it a fair contest.
Dit is nou eers Woensdag en hulle soek al klaar verskoning vir hulle verloor die naweek !!!!!!!!!!!
Wat is jou verskoning vir die way wat jy lyk?
Point taken and....................I agree !!!
@ Sipiwe. You have an awesome profile pic. I am sure you use this profile pic because you don't like what u see when you look into the mirror? be brave and reveal yourself. we want to see how you dress yourself and amaze us with your stunning looks.
With all the WP players in the cheque book Bulls team it is going to be like WP A vs WP B on Saturday. Most of those okes will be able to say hi to their folks, family and school friends at Newlands. Shame on the bulls, you can't produce your own players so you buy WP players with Lottery money.

OBU gets highest university marks
For the 23rd consecutive year, U.S. News & World Report named Oklahoma Baptist University as Oklahoma's highest ranked college on the "Best Regional Colleges of the West" list.
OBU also ranked in the top five "Least Debt" regional colleges list and placed sixth on the "Great Schools, Great Prices" list for western universities. OBU is the only Oklahoma college listed on the "A-Plus Schools for B Students" list for regional colleges.
The exclusive rankings, which include more than 1,400 schools nationwide, will be published in the 2016 edition of the Best Colleges 2017, available online now and on newsstands Oct. 4.
"We are pleased to once again receive this recognition from U.S. News & World Report," said OBU President Dr. David W. Whitlock. "For nearly a quarter of a century, these rankings have formally recognized the achievements of our faculty, staff, and students, along with our university's commitment to the highest levels of excellence in academic achievement. These rankings reflect the tireless efforts and dedication of all of the OBU community to the mission of our University, as we aspire to offer the finest quality Christian liberals arts education available anywhere in the world."
OBU is ranked fifth on the list of "Best Regional Colleges of the West." This is the 25th consecutive year OBU has been ranked in the top 10. According to the Carnegie Classification of Institutions of Higher Education, the "Best Regional Colleges" focus mostly on the undergraduate experience, including institutions that offer a broad range of programs in the liberal arts, as well as fields such as business, education and nursing.
"These rankings once again serve to recognize OBU's commitment to the highest levels of excellence in Christian higher education," said Dr. Stan Norman, provost and executive vice president for campus life. "Our faculty invest their lives in our students and desire to see them succeed academically. Our prayer is that God will use our efforts to impact each and every student, transforming them into the world changers God created them to be. The dedicated efforts of our world-class faculty make these annual rankings possible."
OBU ranked fourth on the "Regional Colleges of the West" list for the "Least Debt" rankings, underscoring the affordability and value of an education at OBU. This list was calculated according to the average debt loads for the graduating class of 2015.
OBU placed sixth on the "Great Schools, Great Prices" list for Western universities, the only university in Oklahoma to make the top ten. The calculations for the "Great Schools, Great Prices" rankings take into account a school's academic quality, based on its U.S. News "Best Colleges" ranking, and the 2015-16 net cost of attendance for a student who receives the average level of need-based financial aid.
The higher the quality of the program and the lower the cost, the better the deal.
Only schools in or near the top half of their U.S. News ranking categories are included because U.S. News considers the most significant values to be among colleges that perform well academically.
OBU was one of only two institutions to qualify on the Regional Colleges of the West list for "A-Plus Schools for B Students." These rankings are based on two variables, the school's performance in the U.S. News & World Report's "Best Colleges" rankings and the average freshman retention rate. The list includes exceptional colleges and universities which provide resources for academically average students to achieve success.
According to information provided by U.S. News, schools are categorized by mission, which is derived from the Carnegie Foundation for the Advancement of Teaching. The Carnegie classification has been the basis of the Best Colleges ranking since U.S. News's first publication three decades ago.
The Best Colleges package then examines how schools compare by weighing many factors, including graduation and retention rates (22.5 percent), assessment of excellence (22.5 percent), faculty resources (20 percent), student selectivity (12.5 percent), financial resources (10 percent), graduation rate performance (7.5 percent), and alumni giving (5 percent).

A blog post template provides FOCUS that will save time developing content for new business.
I'm often asked if I use a template for creating my blog post articles and the answer is yes. I also use it with my clients to help them develop a system for content creation that makes writing easier and more consistent. You will waste less time by having a routine in place to help jump start your writing. It will also help to keep your content focused, highly searchable and relevant to your target audience.
Here is my simple template for writing online articles:
Post Titles
A simple tip to help boost your rankings in Google search is to add a few select key words that you can consistently use in most post titles. 90% of my posts will contain 'ad agency new business' in the title. Clever post titles without an SEO strategy won't cut it. Your target audience needs to know that your posts are specifically written to them. This will provide your blog with a steady stream of "targeted traffic" from search as well as from social media sites such as Twitter, Facebook, LinkedIn and Google +.
Try keeping your post titles around 55 characters or fewer so they can be easily shared via Twitter, which has a maximum limit of 140 characters per tweet.
I always create a subtitle that answers the question for the reader, "what is my takeaway, if I commit to read this post?" This will help you to always lead with the conclusion. In a single sentence you are telling the readers how they will benefit from reading your post which makes it more likely they will read your content.
The First Paragraph
Readers need to know that your content is relevant to them. You need to make this point in the opening paragraph. Remember that a reader's attention span online is far less than it is for print. According to Nielsen Norman Group's research found that only 16 percent read word-by-word.
The Main Body
Identify the specific points that you want to make and create a simple outline that will help guide your writing. Your body copy can be written in paragraphs with multiple headings and/or with bullet points or numbered lists.
Here are some tips for creating the main body copy for your posts:
- If you are just beginning I would suggest the total word count per post to be within 400 to 500 words. If it is less than 400 words there's not enough rich information to warrant a click-through. If it is over 500 words, the content can seem daunting and a reader wont commit to read the post. You will actually get a better return on your time investment with a series of posts within this word count than you will one long post article.
- Break up long paragraphs. Keep paragraphs concise and short.
- Make your content scannable to the eye. Use bold, italics, quotation marks, indention, etc. to make copy pop. A person should be able to quickly scan through your article and get the gist of your article.
- Be sure and provide hyper links to your sources. Don't be afraid that you will lose your audience if they go to another source. Your blog should become a repository of helpful resources for your readers.
- Use common language. This is an opportunity to do away with industry jargon and agency speak and write content that resonates with your intended audience.
Add "About the Author Box"
Most blog themes provide a Author Box that can be automatically added at the bottom of each post and provides a reader with a brief synopsis about you. If you would like to see an example, mine is located at the bottom of this post.
Include an Image or Graphic for Each Post
Make your post visually pleasing. I always include a nice photo or graphic to further drive home the main purpose of a post. Using them will create interest and help draw in a reader. A free image source for bloggers is www.photopin.com. PhotoPin uses the Flickr API and searches creative commons photos to use for your blog. It makes adding photos easy and also provides the photo credit info that can easily be copied and pasted into your post.
Add "Additional Articles of Interest"
At the bottom of my post I will manually add a bullet pointed list of other post articles that I have written around the same topic or category. Readers will usually stay on your site longer when you provide links to related content that they will find helpful to them. There are plugins that can do this automatically but I prefer to manually choose the posts I want to include.
Here are some other blog post templates that you may find helpful:
If you have a template or other tips, please share them in the comment section below.

Wearing: Nordstrom Sweater, Brandy Melville Top, Zara Pants, Sam Edelman Booties, Ray-Ban Sunglasses, Astylebreeze Necklace, Rebecca Minkoff Purse
I found this fringe sweater on sale at Nordstrom last year! This is one of my most fun, and most complimented items of my wardrobe. This sweater has so much going on that I always pair it with an all-black outfit to keep it as classic as I can.
This past weekend I was able to visit my best friend at the University of Alabama and was able to go to the Bama vs. LSU football game! I noticed that the fraternity boys dressed extremely different in the south than they did in the midwest, but the girls seemed to dress similarly to me. The trendy girls from the south were all wearing beaded necklaces similar to the one I am wearing. I was so inspired by this trend that I actually made this necklace myself. I am hoping to make a few more in a variety of colors and potentially sell them in the future if people are interested!! Feel free to comment below if you would be interested.

Support » Plugins » Embedded video thumbnail?
6 years, 5 months ago
I have a website and have managed to get a video embedded where I would like it the only problem is resizing it. Right now I can edit the size of the actual video to a thumbnail(ish) size but this is not what I want to do. What I would like to be able to do is make a thumbnail of the video and if someone clicks it it resizes within the same page to a larger size where they can choose their quality or to go full screen or w/e.
I am still pretty new to WordPress so I will need a step by step solution to this problem if there is one. Here is the website and the page http://ballernerd.com/streams/league-of-legends-streams/

He enjoyed his time in Valencia so much that he decided to make a return visit and combine his visit with 3 days of bespoke guided mountain biking. His specific requirements were essentially 3 full days of guided mountain biking that included a strong element of off-road riding skills training. Our philosophy of never mixing groups allows us to [read more]
Mountain Biking in Xativa
Last week, I had the pleasure of welcoming back some returning clients from UK. They did a guided mountain bike route with me last winter and had vowed to return for a longer route this year. Having spoken to the group about the kind of day they were looking for, and the kind of terrain they´d like to ride, we opted for a day of mountain biking in Xativa. We began our route in the Valle de Barxeta, and warmed up with a relaxed ride along some easy trails through orange groves, then a short stretch of road took us [read more]
Mountain Biking in Valencia
Last week I had the absolute pleasure of meeting a couple of mountain bikers from Finland. They were spending some time in the city and wanted to arrange a couple of days of mountain biking in Valencia. We´d talked before their arrival and had agreed upon a package that included a combination of bike rental and a couple of days of guided mountain biking in the hills that surround this magnificent city. During their time in Valencia, they explored the surroundings with the bikes. They enjoyed rides to the Natural Park of Albufera de Valencia, the coast line north [read more]
Mountain Biking in Xativa, Valencia
Last week, I had the pleasure of welcoming new clients Tina and Dennis, experienced and fit mountain bikers from Denmark. They were staying in the beautiful and historical town of Xativa, an increasingly popular destination for those looking to combine active and cultural tourism. Xativa, the birthplace of both Spanish Popes, and the first place in Europe to produce paper, is located just 50 minutes by train from Spain´s third city, Valencia. We began our mountain bike trip from the heart of the historic centre of Xativa, riding out of town and immediately joining a great trail that took us [read more]
Winter Mountain Biking in Valencia
This autumn has been unusually warm even by Valencian standards, with November midday temperatures reaching 30 degrees C on many days. Therefore the sudden drop to around 12 degrees was somewhat of a shock this weekend. However, the day dawned bright with only light cloud and a good deal of sunshine. My clients for the day were a couple of cyclists from the south coast of England. One of them owned a holiday property in the area and was keen to enjoy a day of guided mountain biking with his friend who was visiting with family. We soon solved the [read more]
Training Ride for Marathon Charity Bike Trip in Cuba.
I recently had the pleasure of meeting Karen and Chris from Manchester, UK. They were on vacation in La Drova and had previously booked a day of guided mountain biking with me. The day was especially interesting as Karen was training for a 400km bike trip across Cuba to raise funds for a women's cancer charity. You can see more information on Karen's Blog. As well as an ideal training ride, we also included some fundamental off-road skills training. The day began with a ride through the Barxeta valley, then through orange groves to the beautiful and historical town of [read more]

COMMENTARY: We had seen signs all over Chihuahua state advertising the new and improved border crossing that was in Santa Teresa. During the time, it was a straight shot for those driving from Chihuahua City to the outlet malls at the outskirts of El Paso, perfect for the late summer season that would start drawing thousands across the border for shopping.
We had taken our daughter to one of her first visits to Chihuahua City. I say "one of her first" because this is one of those events you want to block and don't remember exactly the date, but Goober wasn't walking yet, and still plump with baby fat.
I think she was around six or eight months old, so it was several years ago.
It was a mistake. It was dusk and we assumed it was likely a shift change, but as half hours ticked by without movement, the usual – the angry horn honking – began. Short bursts of meeping angry and long blasts that called up other frustrated drivers to join in a chorus.
It was still a delicate balance between GS, my husband, and I. We hadn't been married overly long, and with my background, coming from a military family, I knew very well the types who are given power without warrant. We had huge blowouts about me trying to smooth over situations in front of Border Patrol agents — actions that he saw as patronizing to his rights as a resident and a human. We were both right and wrong, and that's the worst situation to be in with your spouse.
This time, I was silent. He was fuming when we finally made it to the agent. He'd been at a press conference a week back where they spoke about proper entry at lanes, first to stop at the lights, then pull through, but it turns out the Santa Teresa agents weren't at that press conference so it started with some guff on that.
Curt yes's and no's from GS. She was handing back our cards. GS snatched them away, which elicited a question — "Do you have a problem?"
"No," from GS. Pressed, he may have mentioned that it certainly took a while to get through. "Oh? Secondary." And she pointed.
"What?" asked GS. "SECONDARY," she demanded.
I probably let out a forceful sigh. Secondary is when you get your car really, really inspected. You get out, get put on metal tables much like they put bodies on at a morgue, and wait for them to ransack your belongings. Goober was happy to be in my lap and out of the car for a change.
It wasn't until I realized they were unhooking the base to the car seat that I lost my mind. If you're a parent, you know, but let me fill in those others. The base to a car seat is an infernal contraption that you have to knee into the seat cushion to get it down and tight, all the while making sure that the seatbelt doesn't lose its lock position with one hand. It's annoying.
And, to an extent, annoying is part of the game now for measures of "safety." This — and who buys drugs — isn't a debate I'll have here. I was just a bit done in the moment. The agent guarding us got a call from me. "Hey, let me speak to your supervisor."
He did a bit of a tick. "Why?"
"Who is your supervisor?"
"I'll be right back."
A short Hispanic lady came out from the booth. GS explained that he was gruff and curt, but believed that the agent acted out her power as retribution. The supervisor explained that it was the agent's call and within their rights. They were still rifling through our clothes, with the car seat on the ground next to the car.
I broke into the conversation: "So, what I see right now is an abuse of power." She looked over to me and Goober on my lap. Goober gurgled happily. "This is an abuse of power because there was no need to pull us into secondary; she was about to let us go until she changed her mind."
"Ma'am -"
And I continued on, about what exactly spurred on the agent's decision. I spoke calmly, but quickly. It was right when the ma'am came from her that I knew I made her nervous. She held a brochure in her hand, which described the complaint filing process, and she placed in front of the face of my baby. "I can't be serious with her laughing at me," she said. It broke the spell of authority, and she waved to the agents, who got out of our car, leaving us to fight with the car seat before leaving.
It's absurd. I didn't file a complaint because I've had this happen so many times, and have so many stories, but what I implied in the moment was that it was an abuse of power and we all knew it. If I'm driving back from Juárez, we get told to have a nice day. My husband, now a U.S. citizen, still gets the third degree. The checkpoints, never a problem to white me. My husband, let's discuss itinerary.
But is it worth it to fight it in the moment? No. Their power in the moment is just words with threats of intimidation under the veil of justice. Strangely our words mean more than we think, but we keep quiet. I didn't speak up, because they haven't come for me yet.

CAMPERS are being urged to take more care this summer after emergency services were called to more than 130 fires in caravans and mobile homes last year.
Throughout 2013, NSW Fire and Rescue (NSWFR) said there were 131 caravan and mobile property fires, 42 of which happened over the 2012-2013 Christmas holiday.
NSWFR Commissioner Greg Mullins said in a statement on Monday:
"Whether you're holidaying in a caravan or a tent, you need to take the same fire safety precautions you would in your home."
Smoke alarms are mandatory in all moveable dwellings where people sleep.
NSWFR have also told campers to be cautious with open flames and cigarettes around tents and cars.
Last October a discarded cigarette started a blaze in the Homebush Aquatic Centre carpark, destroying 47 cars.
"So care needs to be taken in caravans parks and camping areas, where vehicles and tents are close together and fire can spread between them," Mr Mullins said.
In the past decade, firefighters attended nearly 1000 incidents in caravans, campervans and mobile homes in which eight people died and 60 were injured.

April Fools' Day Special:
Oh, you know.
⁓The Voice before the Void
"Ole and Lena"
Ole and Lena (along with Sven and Helga and Lars) are central characters in jokes by Scandinavian Americans, particularly in the Upper Midwest region of the United States, particularly in Minnesota, Wisconsin, Iowa, South Dakota, and North Dakota where Scandinavian immigrant traditions are common. The popularity of the jokes was enhanced by the numerous Ole and Lena joke books authored by Red Stangland.
Ole and Lena jokes can be long and drawn-out stories, or as short as two or three sentences. Ole and Lena are typically Norwegian, and Sven and his wife are Swedish.
One would not find Ole and Lena jokes in Sweden or Norway. Rather, they are an outgrowth of an immigrant experience. Language mistakes are a frequent source of Ole and Lena joke material. The characters of the jokes speak with the marring accent and fractured English of the recently arrived immigrant. Turning misunderstandings and mistakes into jokes enabled people to jest about their American immigrant experience.
The core of this folk humor may lie in the strongly egalitarian code that permeates the culture of the Nordic countries. Maybe.
Ole is on his deathbed. The doctor has told him he has only a few hours to live. He catches the scent of his favorite bars wafting through the air. With all the strength he can muster, he drags himself into the kitchen and sees a fresh pan cooling on the rack. He cuts one out and bites into the scrumptious cookie. Lena comes in, smacks his hand, and says, "Shame on you, Ole! These are for after the funeral!"
Ole and Sven are out deer hunting. Ole bags a buck. After they tag the deer and dress it, they grab it by its hind legs and start dragging it through the woods back to the car. A game warden happens upon the pair and, after checking their tags and admiring the buck, tells them that they're dragging out the deer all wrong. By dragging it by the rear legs, snow, dirt, and leaves are getting caught in the animal's fur, and the horns are getting tangled in the brush. The warden suggests that they drag it by the front legs. They agree to try this and much to their surprise, it is much easier dragging the deer this way. About an hour later, Sven turns to Ole and says, "Boy that game warden sure was right, it sure is easier dragging the deer this way!" And Ole replies, "That's true, but you know, Sven, we are getting further away from the car."
Ole went to the Sons of Norway Hall one night and finally won the door prize, which was a toilet brush. He was so excited that he brought it home and used it often. At the next meeting, Lars asked Ole how he liked the toilet brush. Ole replied, "Oh, yah, you know, I like the toilet brush sure, but, you know, just the same, I think I am going to go back to using paper."
Ole goes out one day to use the outhouse, and he finds Sven there. Sven has his wallet out, and he's throwing money down into the hole of the outhouse. Ole asks, "Uff da! Sven, what you doing there? You're throwing the five-dollar bill and the ten-dollar bill down into the hole of the outhouse! What you doing that for?" Sven answers, "Well, when I pulled up my trousers I dropped a quarter down there—and I'm not going to go down there for just a quarter!"
Sven and Ole are roofing a house. Ole picks a nail out of the pan, examines it, and with a "nope" tosses it over his shoulder, then picks up another nail and does the same thing, then picks up a third nail and after examining it, uses it to nail in the shingle. Sven, seeing all of this, exclaims, "Ole! What you doing there, throwing away nails like that?" Ole replies, "Well, you see, these nails, they're pointing towards the house, I can use these. But those nails… they're pointing away from the house, they're useless!" "Ole, you idiot!" Sven replies, "those nails aren't something you just throw away willy nilly… those nails are for the other side of the house!"
Ole and Sven are at a funeral. Suddenly it occurs to Ole that he doesn't remember the name of the dearly departed. Ole turns to Sven and asks: "Sven, could you remind me again who died?" Sven thinks for a moment and says, "Well, I'm not sure," and Sven points at the casket, "…but I think it was the guy in the box."
Many of the jokes are bawdy:
Sven and Ole go to Fargo and visit a brothel. A woman says she will have sex with both of them for $20, but insists, "You have to use rubbers 'cause I don't want to get pregnant." They agree. A week later, back on the farm, Sven says, "Hey, Ole, you remember that girl we met in Fargo?" "Oh, yah, Sven. So?" "Well, you know, Ole, I been thinking, I don't really care anymore if she gets pregnant." "Oh, you know, Sven, me neither." "Well, Ole, why not we don't take these damn things off, then?"
Lars is late for work. The boss finds him in the bunkhouse, and Lars explains that the problem is that he has an erection. The boss tells him, "OK, Lars, you need to go in the barn and get a shovelful of horse manure and pack it around there. That'll take down the swelling and then you can come on and get to work." So Lars goes to the barn and opens his fly and gets the shovelful of manure ready. At that moment, the boss's wife walks in. "Lars, what are you doing?" she asks. Lars explains what he is doing. "Oh, Lars, don't do that," she lifts up her dress, "stick it in here." "What?" says Lars. "The whole shovelful?"
Ole wakes up one morning, remembering that it's his and Lena's 25th wedding anniversary. Ole punches Lena in the arm. Lena awakes and asks, "What was that for?" Ole says, "That's for 25 years of bad sex!" Lena then punches Ole in the arm. Ole asks, "Why did you hit me?" And Lena says, "That's for knowing the difference!"

The Marshall County Commissioners will be moving forward with a tax certificate sale.
Joe Edwards from SRI, Inc. said there were about 30 properties that were not sold in the property tax sale. Those particular properties have not been sold in several years. The redemption period is a little quicker so the properties can be included in the tax rolls in 120 days.
The certificate sale would be held in March in the commissioners meeting room in the Marshall County Building. Proper advertising will be done prior to the sale.
The City of Plymouth has expressed interest on six parcels that would be included in the sale. Edwards said that would be as simple as signing a certificate and taking those properties off the sale.
The commissioners approved a resolution to establish an intent to conduct a commissioners sale to sell tax sale certificates for properties that are severely delinquent in payment of property taxes. The commissioners will establish a minimum bid as the sale date gets closer.

Stock Markets settled higher on GST relief on Friday, but post weekly loss to some extent. Nifty registered marginal profit taking and lost over 1% in the passing week. The Bank Nifty index has been consolidating in a narrow range close to its record high, while Nifty IT index surpassed the benchmark index and spurted strongly in the passing week.
The key benchmark Sensex & Nifty overcame a spell of the extreme end volatility to close with modest gains today as investor sentiment got a lift after the GST Council trimmed tax rates on a wide range of items.
The BSE Sensex, after a start at 33,235 levels, rebounded to the day's high of 33,380.42 in the late afternoon trade of the week ended Friday, but lost some ground to end at 33,314.56, up 63.63 points, or 0.19%, from its earlier close. The NSE Nifty 50 index, after moving between 10,254.10 and 10,344.95, finally ended 12.80 points, or 0.12%, higher at 10,321.75. For the week, Sensex index fell by 371 pts, whereas the Nifty lost 130.75 pts.
The GST Council on Friday provided release to several sectors by reducing tax rates an array of consumer items to 18% from current 28% and cut rates on 177 goods.

I grabbed my iPhone and my ear buds as I walked downstairs to put the leash on Domingo. I was busy this morning catching up on emails and getting ready to see clients and neglected to walk him.
As I started out I got a sense that it was time to leave my iPhone behind. My first thought was of the bald eagle I saw fly by my window this morning and wanted to make a case for bringing my camera, but another voice said no.
The voice – my intuitive Self – said no. I quickly understood that one of the greatest detriments to accessing intuition is being over-stimulated. I don't know about you, but my phone is my email, text messages, Skype, Facetime, Facebook, Google +, Tinder, Candy Crush, Meetup and on and on.
It felt so good to hear the river flowing, even as low as it is this time of year. I heard a neighbor laugh, a worker drop a piece of slate and more than anything; my own thoughts. For some of us walking is a form of meditation. It is where we re-new and reduce stress.
Today I am inviting you to take time to put your phone away. Build up to hours a day. Whether you want to connect with your intuition or with your child or loved one, it doesn't matter. It's a wise and peaceful choice.

Best of Both Worlds: How Princess Eugenie and Princess Beatrice Emerged Unscathed From Their Parents' Wild Scandals
Tony Barson/Getty Images
Tyra Banks has just made sure her Halloween be without any unwanted tricks-or-treats.
A Los Angeles judge today slapped a permanent restraining order on the "mentally unstable" 39-year-old man accused of stalking the America's Next Top Model queen under the delusion that they were destined to be married.
The order issued in Los Angeles Superior Court means Marten Williams Jr. must stay at least 100 yards from Banks and her family for the next three years.
The ruling comes after he was busted attempting to trespass at her Beverly Hills home earlier this month.
Per Banks' court filing, Williams was described as a "mentally unstable celebrity stalker" who has been bombarding the star with "ominous frightening letters and items" since 2006.
Banks says that her unwanted devotee believed "he killed George Bush Jr. and that Michael Jackson is alive and living in Long Beach."
No wonder she was freaked out.

Last week I won Sharon's blog giveaway. I got the sweetest frame from her just before we left for New York. I can't decide if I should leave the daring angels in the frame or trade them out for a photo of Hailey. Either way, I just love Sharon's work. She makes wonderful mosaic art, and has a tea pot that is to die for here. Sharon was also recently an artist featured in an article here. Thanks for frame Sharon, I love it!!!

The Galaxy S6 is slated to go official on March 2 and Samsung is leaving no stones unturned to create buzz on the internet. The company's big-thing, the Galaxy S6, may look different from the Galaxy S4 and Galaxy S6. Rumours also suggest that the device will be made out of metal and glass.
Tech blog site, Sam Mobile, which accurately leaked a few photos of the Galaxy Note 4 it was announced, claims to have obtained a few alleged pictures that shows the Galaxy S6. And interestingly, the Galaxy S6 looks similar to that of the Apple iPhone 6.
Recommended: Samsung Galaxy S6 Cases Leak Design: What You Can Expect [PHOTOS]
The latest in a recent flurry of Samsung Galaxy S6, the design has been show off via a leaked render. Apparently, the render shows the curved edges on the Galaxy S6, similar to that of the iPhone 6.
Notably, the home button on the Galaxy S6 seems to be taller and circular in nature.
