When it comes to doing things yourself or home decor, it typically comes down to what you have on hand. You can pretty much create any number of unique home decor ideas by recycling or re-purposing things you have laying around the house or the garage. So I decided today to focus on 15 unique and innovative wall hooks that you can make yourself with materials that you may have laying around. What's great about these wall hooks is that they are both home decoration ideas and are also fully functional so you can use them to hang just about anything such as towels, coats, or even some decorative items.
We have found quite a few different wall hooks that you can make on your own and are completely unique and very easy to recreate for your home. These wide variation of hooks can be used in bathrooms, kitchens, the kids' rooms or anywhere in your home that you need them or just want more places to hang things.
Old-Fashioned Rake Wall Hook
Head into your garage and grab one of those old rakes because it can be easily turned into a really great hanger for either wine glasses or coats! Make sure you sand the rake down a little bit if there is some rust on it or even leave it if you prefer the rustic look, the choose is yours. Other option for reusing an old fashioned rake hanger is to put one in a bedroom. They make a perfect jewellery holder, and perfect for hanging necklaces. And to top it all off this idea will cost you very little if anything at all and it will only take you a few minutes to create this masterpiece.

Faucet Handle Wall Hangers
Whats a better hanger than those faucets handles you have for your water hose? A perfect hanger for your garden shed, garage or even inside your home! And even if you do not have any laying around, you can always head on over to a yard sale or thrift store to find one. The whole process of building these is quite simple. Basically, you just need to attach the faucet handles to a wooden board via a screw or just stick them directly to the wall. It's all about being decorative and functional all at the same time!

Recycled Wooden Hangers
Have old wood hangers laying around the house? So why not put them to good use by creating this really unique hanger. Hang whatever you like on these hangers including clothes, towels, scarves, belts or whatever your heart desires. What's also great about this project is that you can use broken hangers as well since you only need half of the hangers, so this is a really great way to re-purpose them.

Unique Paint Brush Hangers
Have any paint brushes laying around the house? Well we have found a great re purposing project for you. This project turns a regular old paint brush into a whimsical wall hanger. And this project is really easy, you just have to leave just enough paint on your brush to harden it. therefor, the hardened paint is what makes the actual hook itself. If you have an office or art studio, this idea would suit your office just perfectly! You can even use this idea to hang things in your office like painting supplies.

Bent Wrench Wall Hangers
Need some really great decor ideas and hangers in your garage? Check out this wrench wall hanger idea which takes your old wrenches and turns them into both unique decor and a hanger for anything laying around. The idea is very simple. Just bend the wrench upward then attach it to the wall. Wrenches are typically heavier than the average wall hanger so you can hang really heavy items on them. Some popular items you can hang are tool boxes or garden tools. Pretty much anything you would typically store in a garden shed or a garage. These also make great hangers for a boy's room as well.

Flattening Trowel Re-purposed Wall Hook
Check out this unique trowel wall hook idea! The project is more or less just painting it whatever color you like and hanging it. If your looking for a more rustic look, you can sand it or paint it a bit of a white color similar to this image, but really, any color will do depending on your wall color. These wall hooks work really well for towels or inside closet doors for your bathrobes.

Bed Headboard Wall Hangers
Who would have thought that an old headboard you have in storage could be used as a wall hanger! If you don't happen to have a spare one, you can usually find one for a decent price at a flea market or yard/garage sale. This project requires you to stain it, paint it, and clean it up then add the hooks as required. This bed headboard wall hanger can be used for many different things including a coat rack, towel rack or you could even hang quite a few kitchen items from it as well. Whats great about this idea is that its very unique, decorative and you can get as creative as you like with this project by decorating them.

Modern Spindle Wall Hooks
Once you are done with the thread on those wooden spindles, make sure you keep them for this great project. These beautiful and modern spindle wall hooks are pretty simple to design. All you need to do is attach a dowel to the wall with screws and just add the spool over the dowel afterwards. Change up the size of the spool for some different looks and designs. You will find that these are perfects for sewing rooms, reading rooms, or simply to hang things in your entryways or hallways.

Perfume Lid Wall Hangers
Make sure the next time you finish up with that perfume bottle that you keep the lid. You can actually create some really nice looking wall hangers from the lids. But heads up, to complete this project you will also need a wine cork so make sure you keep some around the next time you finish a bottle of wine. The low cost of this project is what shines the most because it only requires perfume caps and corks which most women have. So stick that cork in that cap and screw it to the wall and be impressed with the unique design and innovation in this project.

Copper Pipe Wall Hooks
Here is another really great project which will give you that elegant and modern look for wall hooks. I find that copper is an extremely strong metal so you can hang some heavier things on these copper pipes. So once you do, add these to your kitchen and feel free to hang your heavy pans or pots. This project is relatively easy to complete and does not take a lot of time either.

Light Bulb Wall Hangers
When your light bulbs start to dim or burn out remember not to throw them away. Why you ask? Because this project is a great way to re-purpose them as wall hangers. You will need a little bit of concrete and time to accomplish this project but overall, it is not a very difficult or expensive project. The look and uniqueness of these Light Bulb Wall Hangers is amazing!

Tree Branch Wall Hooks

Door Knob Hangers
Door knobs are one of the best hangers. They have the perfect shape for hanging little things and they come in a variety of sizes, shapes and designs. If you have old rustic looking ones, they would look great being placed in different rooms or even mix match them with more modern looking door knobs. You can hang anything from coats, to purses or simply to hang towels.

Nursery Toy Colorful Wall Hooks
Every kid typically has nursery toys they may not play with anymore, so why not paint them a bright color and re-purpose them into a wall hook which will work in any child's room! This also works especially well for toys that are broken and you have no use for them anymore. You could use various types of toys such as animals or just a standard hard rubber toys. This is a very easy project to take on and honestly it will only take you an hour or 2 to complete.

text: The Air Force's Office of Scientific Research has funded a study that's found a novel waterproofing technique that could prevent ice formation and corrosion from damaging parts of an aircraft, like optical sensors. The transparent coating has a nanoporous surface that is superhydrophobic, which makes water droplets form and roll or bounce-off the aircraft's skin rather than collecting, which is how ice formations happen. Better still it can be crafted to send the droplets in particular pathways across the coating, meaning it may also work as a cheap and simple water-collection system for desert environments: this was inspired by the way the Namib Desert beetle gathers moisture. We wonder though... is it as good as Golden Shellback? [AirForceLink]

It's hard to know how to conduct your sex life after a divorce, especially if you have children in the home. How you lead your private life is a model for what your children may do when they become mature enough to have sex.
Many moms and dads become single again after years or decades of marriage and wonder how they can start to have a personal life. Sometimes they start dating again, but forget about the effect of adult intimacy on their children.
You will have to be careful about introducing a new love into your life. You must think about the message you're sending young children.
The message here is don't rush it. Take your time and adjust to your new circumstances. Remember, if you are having a hard time, your children are too.
Moreover, the older the children, the greater their disdain if new lovers start sleeping over too soon after the divorce. Some single parents even resort to secretive behavior, making sure a lover is out of the house by the time the children are up and about. Needless to say, family experts suggest a few more truthful and careful approaches.
Use this time to improve or mend your relationship with your children if you need to. You can focus on your children's care in a new way without the strain of your marital problems. Spend more time with your children and forge some new, lasting bonds. You and your children can navigate your new lives together.
When children feel secure in all the various post-divorce arrangements, it becomes easier to accept a new person into the circle. However, if the children are unsure about mom or dad's affection, they will feel threatened, or feel they are competing for dad or mom's time and attention. The ugly effects of jealousy will then proceed to make domestic life difficult.
When a new love interest does start to bloom, move slowly. Even under the best of circumstances, acceptance of an outsider is tough for children. And that is doubly true when children can only see a parent on weekends. If you try to share your children's time with a new love right away, feelings of resentment may develop. If you are dating, your children don't have to meet all of your dates. Wait until you meet someone with whom you may develop a serious relationship.
Try to avoid situations that may cause conflict, such as open, inappropriate affection, or getting caught in a lie. It will be uncomfortable at first, but it's best to be open with your children and address any concerns or objections.
In addition, your children's safety comes foremost, and you need to make sure there is no chance your new partner is inclined toward any type of abuse. Another danger involves jumping in too quickly with a new love and allowing the children to become attached to the newcomer. If the adults do not take the time to really get to know each other, this can lead to an end of the new relationship.
When you do meet someone special, find a balance between spending too much time away from your children and too much time as a new family unit. Often, there is far too much friction between the children and a new lover. That's usually because the new person tries to act like a substitute parent right away. The best way for a new person to get acquainted with your children is to just be a friend first. Leave parenting to the parent, and try to get to know the children long before sleeping over.
Try dating a person who is playful, lighthearted, and fun with your children. One who is willing to be introduced into the lives of the children slowly and who enjoys a healthy mix of adult-only and children-included activities. This person is probably a good catch if he or she shows respect and adoration for you with your children and respects the boundaries that you set.
Yet another complicating factor is the degree of hostility between the divorcing couple. If bitterness is high and the parents are fighting with little effort put into co-parenting, new lovers are likely to receive a constant cold shoulder from the children.
When a new love does start spending the night, experts recommend answering children's questions completely but offering no additional information about what goes on in the bedroom. For teens, some experts say it might be a good idea to add that you are practicing safe sex.
According to experts, it usually takes about 2 years for the new love to get to know the children. It can take 5 years before a blended family operates smoothly, with affection and respect all around. When the time comes, tell the children you are in a special relationship with somebody who is important in your life. And that he or she may stay overnight once in a while.

Planting Spring
Truly, I can't say enough about the importance of growing plants and caring for living creatures in one's classroom.
Your children will assume the role of "care giver" quite naturally and whichever you choose, plant or animal, is sure to recieve quality attention from your students.
Just remember: It is the teacher's responsibility to provide the same amount of love and care over the weekend and school vacation.
In PEACE,
Montessori Mama

Jennifer, I was super happy to see your kind words...you are such an inspiration, and I have enjoyed all of the great ideas you present on your blog. You are inspiring to this mama of two pre-school boys--I have incorporated as much montessori methods as I can in my home, and hope to put the boys in a montessori school when they are old enough. Oh, and I hope you do get to hug a redwood tree one day....they inspire me daily (I live 5 minutes away from some of the biggest ones).
Have an inspired weekend!

Yeah I guess long-time players do take for granted a lot of crazy feature creep the series has. They should really go back and fix how some of it works instead of piling on more pointless features each gen. Overall I feel like Z-Moves were kind of a pointless addition because they're mostly just big damage nukes and there's only like 3 or 4 status moves that change into something interesting.
I'm also trying to figure out why my Decidueye can't learn fly despite being an owl. I know flightless birds exist, but as far as I know, all owls can fly.
And, as mentioned in my review, Contests need to return. And I'm talking the lavish pomp of ORAS Contests.
Agreed. Also, compared to using a good held item, I find them generally not all that helpful.
I get the need for Fairy typing to balance out Dragon, but it was a poorly thought-out concept in X/Y and remains poorly thought out. I also feel that Dark typing has gotten overly nerfed. Pokemon doesn't need any more new typings, but the current ones need to be rebalanced.
I know this is wishful thinking, but I'd like to see Normal typing be true neutral. Strong agains nothing but weak against nothing. Right now, they're strong against nothing but weak to fighting.

The news this week that Jean-Claude Brizard is on a short list of candidates to lead Chicago Public Schools should not have come as a big surprise. But for those who support the effort to bring reform and accountability to the Rochester City School District, it ought to be a wakeup call.
If Rochester loses Mr. Brizard as superintendent of schools, it will be a severe blow-one likely to imperil the change so desperately needed.
The superintendent's arrival in Rochester a little more than three years ago was greeted with high hopes. It did not take long for him to become a lightning rod, however, because he was blunt about what must happen to end decades of abysmal student performance.
No longer could the district tolerate poorly performing schools. Nor could it continue to endorse the practice of basing teacher retention on seniority rather than performance. And principals needed to be empowered to make crucial decisions.
In short, failure-a graduation rate persistently below 50 percent cannot be described another way-must become unacceptable.
Some people view change as a threat. There's little doubt that leaders of the Rochester Teachers Association-and many members-feel this way. RTA president Adam Urbanski believes Mr. Brizard is the problem. As he told this newspaper recently, "the only choice … would be for him to leave or for all the teachers to leave." He even described the superintendent as delusional.
The real delusion, of course, is the idea that Rochester schools can transform student performance by continuing down the road they have traveled for decades.
Mr. Brizard's performance has not been flawless. And though student achievement has begun to improve, a study showing only 5 percent of high school students leaving the district prepared for college or a career makes clear that the task remaining is enormous. Yet those who think Mr. Brizard is the leader this city's schools need should recognize the stakes.
With school districts in Chicago and elsewhere holding Mr. Brizard in high regard, Mr. Urbanski might get his wish. In that event, Rochester would be left with the RTA chief, his supporters-and the dashed hope of reform.

Commenter Fuzzymail wonders why the villains we face in video games can't be just as scared and uncertain as the heroes in today's episode of Speak-Up on kotaku.
Why does the main "bad guy" always have to be so calculated and self assured? Why can't they present their struggle to achieve their goal the same way you have to? Why can't the villain of the game ever be afraid of you and not willing to turn into a giant bug creature after explaining to you how and why you are not going to defeat him?
About Speak-Up on Kotaku: Our readers have a lot to say, and sometimes what they have to say has nothing to do with the stories we run. That's why we have a forum on Kotaku called Speak-Up. That's the place to post anecdotes, photos, game tips and hints, and anything you want to share with Kotaku at large. Every weekday we'll pull one of the best Speak-Up posts we can find and highlight it here.

Technology is addictive. Take a look at the electronic options on any new car, and you will see that significant technological advances within the last several years have become commonplace. With this in mind, it is only natural that we all desire many of these features in our classic cars, as well. While many of these options may seem a bit extreme (traction control, ABS, and so on), there are some options that are more than gadgets. This is certainly true in the case of enhancements in vehicle lighting where we gain the benefits of improvements in performance, safety, and aesthetics.
We had heard at SEMA that American Autowire was working on LED sequential taillight assemblies for '67-'69 Camaros. With the popularity of these First-Gen cars as both a desirable original restoration and a modified streetcar, we contacted them to set up an installation in our '69 Camaro. However, we felt it necessary to provide some real technical background on the LED technology in conjunction with the installation. So let's discuss the technology first.
Based off of standard light bulbs, sequential turn signals were nothing new. Many of you remember the old Thunderbirds and Cougars that used them. At that time, they were really cool, but not easily adaptable to other cars. Light Emitting Diode (LED) technology has changed all that with improved (lower) current draw, longer life and safety.
LED lighting draws far less current than conventional bulbs. A typical turn signal and lighting circuit for the taillights runs 10-15 amps with the bulbs generating substantial heat. An equivalent LED circuit requires 1 to 3 amps and is virtually heat free. This reduced current flow allows you to use smaller gauge wiring, which contributes to weight reduction, and a lower fuse rating for the lighting circuit. LED lamps also have a rated life many times more than an incandescent bulb. LED lamps don't have a filament (the strand inside the bulb that gives light and generates heat) and have a life of 25,000-100,000 hours. This is many times the life of an incandescent bulb. Simply put, LED's provide a significant maintenance cost reduction.
The safety benefits alone are worth it with LED bulbs. When you step on the brakes, an incandescent bulb may take up to 0.25 seconds to light up. The LED bulb is an electronic device that emits light instantaneously (0.05 seconds). There are studies demonstrate that this time differential can result in a difference of as much as 25 feet at speeds of 75 mph. This can make the difference in avoiding that rear end crash.
One of the most important specifications of an LED bulb is its dispersion angle. Basically, it is how many degrees off center the light is visible. The dispersion angle, combined with a diffuser, determines how well the light fills the lens. Wide-dispersion angle bulbs (on the order of 120 degrees) really fill the lens. Low-dispersion angle LED bulbs (30 degrees or less) tend to look as distinct misplaced circles of color. Dispersion angle and lens diffusers aid in the design of the final product.
Now that we've given you some insight into the technology, follow along as we show you the installation. The entire assembly is plug-and-play, so the upgrade is pretty straightforward. Plus, the kit comes with a complete set of easy-to-understand instructions, so you should be able to complete the install in no time. Additionally, you can go to American Autowire's Web site (www.americanautowire.com) and view a video clip of the operation of the '69 taillights.
By the time you read this, kits will be available for '67-'68 Camaros (standard and RS body styles) as well as the popular '68-'72 Novas, too. Any way you look at it, installing this trick set of lights can only help, whether it be in preventing an accident or adding to the cool factor of your ride.
Separate the lens from its housing. Slots in the housing and corresponding extensions tabs on the lens retain the lens. Now the housing is ready for modification to accept the LED circuit boards. Here the right hand assembly is (the left side is similar). The lens in this photo is a Rally Sport lens. The standard body lens contains a backup light in the center and the housing contains the extra light socket hole. However, extension tabs on the lens and corresponding retention slots in the housing are identical. This makes the lens removal procedure the same for either the standard or Rally Sport lens.
There are four templates, which must be cut out of the supplied template sheet. These templates are for the LED circuit board mounting holes that must be drilled into the top and bottom sides of both the left-hand (driver side) and right hand (passenger side) taillight housings. Tape these templates to the housings as shown in this photograph. Each template is specifically marked as to its position (top or bottom) of the housing. The physical molding configuration of the housing will match the template to insure correct indexing to the housing. This procedure is the same for either the Standard or Rally Sport housing.
The taillight bucket assemblies are reproduced today. These production housings have slight differences in the location of the mounting legs. The kit is supplied with a second set of templates that define the circuit board mounting holes based on these differences. Be sure to select the correct set of templates based upon whether you are using original or reproduction housings. It is important to select the correct template before drilling the circuit board mounting pilot holes as defined in the next step. Because of this difference in housings, we recommend that you drill small pilot holes and test the fit of the circuit boards before drilling the final 0.32 (5/16)-inch mounting hole.
Center punch the eight holes to be drilled in the housings and drill a small pilot hole to test the alignment of the boards. Once the alignment of the boards is correct, drill the pilot hole out to 0.32-inch (5/16-inch) in the corresponding places in each housing. Be sure to remove any remaining burrs from all holes after drilling to ensure a proper fit of the retaining rivets.
Each circuit board has a DIP switch located on the rear of the board. This switch determines the operation of the LED lights on the board as either sequential or standard. The board is shipped with the DIP switch in the up position indicating sequential operation. It is recommended that all DIP switches on all the circuit boards be set to the same setting.
Route the wires from each circuit board through the existing light socket holes in the taillight housing. The metal mounting brackets on each circuit board should line up with the mounting holes drilled in the housings in Step 5.
The circuit board retention brackets are secured to the housing, using the two-piece plastic rivets supplied in the kit. The rivet has a male and female end. The male end must be installed from the outside of the housing and the orientation of the female end must be as shown in the photo. Before installing the rivets, the brackets can be slightly bent to rest flush with the housing.
This is how the housing should look after the circuit boards are installed.
Notice that the DIP switch is accessible through the original light socket hole if the LED circuit operation needs to be changed.
Each of the four grommets must be split before final assembly around the wires and plugging into the taillight housing. If your grommets are not already slit, use a new sharp razor blade and cut them at this time.
This is how the completed circuit board installation into the taillight housing should look before the lens is installed. The grommet on the left was not plugged into the housing to show how the wire will sit inside the grommet before plugging into the taillight housing. The housing shown in this picture is a standard body taillight housing that has the additional center hole for a backup light. If you are installing the kit in a standard body housing, you can use one of the supplied backup light sockets to retain your backup lights. This will be explained during the harness hookup instructions.
Identify the diffusers and position them on the back of the lens before removing the adhesive protection backing. This photo identifies the outer diffuser on the driver side. As shown in the photo, be careful to align the material before removing the protective backing. The adhesive will be difficult to remove so take your time in the process of positioning the diffuser before attempting to glue it in place.
Trim the diffuser material to match the contour of the outer lens. This contour will be different for Rally Sport and standard body lenses. Notice that the outer diffuser wraps up the edge of the inner reflector. Do not trim off the material that runs up the inner edge of the reflector. Only trim the material that wraps onto the flat surface of the inner reflector, as shown by the trim line in the photo. It is strongly suggested that you use a new sharp razor blade for this process.
Repeat the procedure for the inner diffuser.
Trim the diffuser material to match the contour of the inner lens. The inner diffuser follows the edge contour of the inner reflector. Again, this contour will be different for Rally Sport and standard body lenses. Again, It is strongly suggested that you use a new sharp razor blade for this process.
This is how the taillight housing should look after the diffuser is installed.
The completed lens can now be reinstalled in the taillight housing. Be sure to lock the locating tabs on the lens into the corresponding slots in the taillight housing. This is how the taillight housing should look after the circuit boards, diffusers, and lenses are installed.
Position the new Rear Body Panel light harness across the trunk. Notice that each taillight assembly will have two taillight housing connections. The inner panel housing trunk lock mechanism will be the focal point for the fuel tank extension plug-in, license plate plug-in, and main harness grounds. Side marker lights will retain the same original connector and lamp and will be a direct plug-in.
As previously stated, the trunk latch mounting plate locates the main connector for the license plate and fuel tank sender connections. The ground terminal shown in the photo of the rear body panel harness is the system ground for all the rear lighting. It is extremely important that this ground connection be made securely. The star pattern on the ring terminal is made to establish a good bite into the steel trunk latch mounting plate when tightened correctly. Good grounding is essential to the operation of the LED circuitry.
The taillight housings can now be installed and the LED circuit board lead wire connections made to the new rear body panel harness. Notice the plug in connection to the existing rear body intermediate harness next to the side marker light. The new harness also contains the original harness retention pin clips that are used to locate the harness across the rear body panel.
For standard body (non Rally Sport) applications a new backup light socket is included and can be plugged into the new rear body panel harness as shown in the photo. The light socket can then be installed in the center light socket hole of a standard body light housing. Light sockets are installed by positioning the light socket in the appropriate opening and twisting the socket in a clockwise direction until the socket locks in the housing.
For Rally Sport applications a jumper is supplied to mate the new harness with the backup light assembly mounted in the lower rear body panel. The backup light assembly is shown here in the trunk for clarity in the connection. In actuality, the backup light assembly mounts to the rear body panel and the connection wire is routed thru the rear panel and sealed with the grommet attached to the assembly lead wire. The connection is the only thing made in the trunk area.
For all coupes, a jumper is supplied to plug into the existing dome light lead wires in the intermediate rear body harness located above the driver- side wheel arch. This jumper extends a long orange wire to the existing Intermediate Rear Body connector that the new rear body panel harness is plugged into. A constant 12-volt battery supply is required for the LED circuitry to operate properly. The dome light circuit will be the source of this power.
At the other end of this wire is a male terminal that must be plugged into the existing Intermediate rear body harness connector in the cavity opposite the mating cavity in the new rear body panel harness. The final connection in the left rear trunk area is shown below.
For all convertibles, there is no dome light jumper in the Intermediate rear body harness. The power circuit needed to power the LED circuitry must come from the fuse box. Therefore, for convertibles, a long orange wire is included that must be routed over the wheel arch and through the threshold plate alongside the existing intermediate rear body harness and plugged into a battery connection at the fuse box. Follow the instructions in step 25 for connection of the other end of this wire into the existing Intermediate Rear Body harness.
(Original '68-'69 Camaro only) As previously mentioned, convertibles require a direct power connection at the fuse box. This photo shows the fuse box connection to the original '69 Camaro fuse box. This connection is the same for the '68 Camaro.
('67-'69 Camaro Classic Update) If you are using an American Autowire Classic Update Series kit for the '69 Camaro (PN#500686) or '67-'68 Camaro (PN#500661), the power connection for the convertible is shown in this photo. The Classic Update Series kit uses an ATO fuse panel that requires a different connector interface to the fuse panel. This connector is supplied on the orange wire in the kit.
OK, you are now finished. Just be aware of the following: The LED taillight kit is designed for best performance when using an electronic no-load flasher. Shown here is an optional electronic no-load flasher (PN#500832) available from American Autowire.When using a stock bi-metal flasher, it is recommended that a standard duty flasher be used instead of a heavy duty flasher. Slight variations can exist in the LED sequential timing when using a stock style bi-metal flasher. If your turn signal circuit includes LED turn signals in the front as well as in the rear, the turn signal circuit will not have enough resistance load to operate an original style bi-metal flasher and this no-load flasher will be required.

LONDON (Reuters) - British industrial output fell more sharply than expected in September, data showed on Tuesday, reinforcing fears an incipient recovery will struggle to gather pace.
Excluding a decline in June, due partly to an extra public holiday, the 1.7 percent monthly fall was the biggest since August 2009 and much bigger than the 0.6 percent decline analysts had forecast.
The data further complicates the economic picture for policymakers. Economists have been paring back expectations of more monetary stimulus in November since a surprise 1 percent rise in British output between July and September.
Many economists pointed out that the main driver of the industrial data weakness was a slump in oil and gas production, which was due to maintenance work on North Sea platforms.
However, manufacturing output rose by a smaller than expected 0.1 percent in September on the month after a downwardly revised drop of 1.2 percent in August, the Office for National Statistics said.
The figures supported British government bonds, helping them outperform their German counterparts.
The downbeat data come two days before the Bank of England (BoE) must decide whether to inject further cash into the economy to prop up the recovery.
The central bank has already bought government bonds worth 375 billion pounds in its quantitative easing programme and several central bankers have made cautious comments.
"I think we can expect a downward revision of the (third quarter) GDP figure... More worrying is the effect this might have on fourth-quarter gross domestic product," said Brian Hilliard, economist at Societe Generale.
"As for the coming BoE decision, I think this will have very little effect. We've had a very strong suggestion from (Bank of England governor) Mervyn King that it might be time to sit back and just analyse what's going on rather than continue with QE."
Britain's return to growth is at threat from public spending cuts, tax rises and low wage growth that have sapped consumer confidence, while the euro zone debt crisis has cast a dark cloud over the business outlook.
Business surveys have indicated a weak start to the final quarter of the year and economists have pointed out that one-off factors contributed to Britain's third quarter growth.
A survey showed on Monday that business in the dominant services sector expanded at the slowest pace in almost two years in October and optimism about the outlook dimmed.
Other news on the economy on Tuesday painted a mixed picture. British retail sales slowed sharply in October and house prices fell at a faster rate.
However, new car sales rose strongly and the car business lobby SMMT raised its forecast for sales this year.
Industrial production was 0.9 percent higher in the three months that ended in September compared to the previous three-month period. It was unchanged in the three months to August.
Mining and quarrying recorded the biggest monthly drop since February 1974, while oil and gas extraction posted the largest fall since records began in 1997.

So what is this app?:
I found this app and thought it was really helpful compared to the other exercising apps out there because it creates an exercise program that fits your body. Also it allows you to create customized exercise plans with detailed instructions on how to lose weight, strengthen your muscles or leave healthfully.
In the beginning, you will put in your weight, height, gender and it will create your BMI or Body Mass Index. After you put in this information, Designyourbody will create a exercise program which includes tons of different routines like pilates, cardiovascular, weights and more. Then you will be able to choose what activities you want and can make it in your daily routine (if you are dedicated to exercising!)
3 Different Categories:
The workouts all have different videos and photos for these 3 major categories. People who are trying to lose weight (like me), muscle building or pilates for women. Each of these can all be custom-made which is really helpful for people like me who hate doing sit-ups but would rather do some extra running!
How it works
There are a lot of videos and instructions on how to do exercise which is really important. The description says over 300 and there are a lot. Basically it will help you learn how to exercise correctly without hurting yourself and what not. In addition, there are other instructions like stretching, weight training and daily and weekly tips to mix up your routine a little more. Oh another cool thing is it has smart reminders and scheduling to fit your busy schedules.
All in all, I thought this app was pretty cool. Instead of paying $50 per hour for a personal trainer I had one on my iPhone.
Any workout buffs here?

Note: user account creation on this site has been disabled.
Tooltips are a useful thing. Just last year, as a volunteer web developer, I built an event website for a nonprofit. The website had a page with the event program grid. The event had several parallel tracks, each of them jam-packed of back-to-back panels, and each panel had several panelists. Understandably, the web page real estate was at a premium, and the page for the panel grid listed the participants by only their last name. No other info.
If you are attending the convention and wondering what panel to go to next, you might want to know who the panelists on it are, because that makes a big difference in whether a panel is worth attending. Unfortunately, for that you would have to go to the page of panelists' bios, which means "losing your place" in the grid page. If only you could look up at least the very basics about the panelists without leaving the grid page!
Luckily, modern internet is capable of such miracles. We'll put panelist information in a tooltip, to be brought up with a mouse hover (in a desktop-based web browser) or with a click (in a mobile browser) on a panelist's name.
Since laziness is the greatest virtue of a developer, we don't want to write our own tooltip code. We'll use what other people have written. And since we are using Angular.js for the convention website, we'll use tooltips that were implemented in Angular. There happens to be such a handy project, Angular Tooltips by 720kb. It provides a directive,
tooltips that's used as an attribute of an element for which you want to provide a tooltip. One of the arguments you can pass to it is
tooltip-template="". To customize the tooltip for each panelist, you can pass as the template the name of a function that would retrieve a panelist's short bio. For example:
Foo1 Foo
participants is an object in this page's controller that is basically a dictionary of participants.
participantInfo is a function in the same controller that returns a small snippet of the bio, just enough to fit in a tooltip -- say, the first 15 words.
angular .module('app') .controller('mainController' , mainController); function mainController($scope, $location, $routeParams, $http) { // shortname and linkid will usually be the same, except when there are 2 panelists with the same last name. // Then their linkids will be, e.g. a_foo, and b_foo, while their shortnames will be A. Foo and B. Foo $scope.panelists = { "foo": {fullname:'Foo1 Foo', linkid: "Foo", shortname: "Foo", website: "foo.com", bio: "Foo is the author of several books, including ****, ****, and ****, though she is better known as the author of more than 1,100 short stories published in ****, **** and ****."}, "bar": {fullname:'Bar1 Bar', linkid: "Bar", shortname: "Bar", website: "bar.com", bio: "Bar was a writer on a variety of video game titles, including ****, ****, and ****. He is also the creator and author of the fantasy role-playing game ****."} } $scope.bioBeginning = function(person) { if (person.bio) { var bioWords = person.bio.split(" "); var minBioLength = 0; if (bioWords.length >= 15) minBioLength = 15; else minBioLength = bioWords.length; var minBio = bioWords.slice(0, minBioLength); return minBio.join(" ") + '... Read More'; } return ""; } $scope.participantInfo = function(person) { return "
" + person.fullname + "

" + $scope.bioBeginning(person) + "
"; }
The tooltips now show up and are populated with the panelist's info.
Now we need to think what mouse event(s) should cause the tooltip to show up, and what event(s) should cause it to hide. The Angular Tooltips directive lets you specify a set of events for showing and for hiding the tooltip with
tooltip-show-trigger="" and
tooltip-hide-trigger="" arguments. For desktop-based browsers it is easy: we want to show the tooltip on
mouseover (hover) and hide it on
mouseout. But what about the mobile browsers? Since there is no such thing as hovering on a mobile browser, we want to show the tooltip on click. But... we also want to hide it on click. If the user clicks anywhere else on the page, the tooltip should go away. The problem is, if we specify it like this:
tooltip-show-trigger="click" tooltip-hide-trigger="click"
the tooltip will never show up, because the same click event that showed it will also hide it.
Turns out, the touch-based event
touchstart will work fine to show the tooltip. Granted, if the user wants the tooltip to stay up, instead of going away immediately, they'll have to press the screen for a myriadth of a second longer. But they'll get the hang of it. Meanwhile, the click event can still be used to hide the tooltip.
Combining those events with
mouseover and
mouseout, we get this:
Foo1 Foo
We probably also want an "x" in the tooltip to close it. That's also an option provided by Angular Tooltips.
Foo1 Foo
Looks like our
span tag is pretty bloated now. That's a lot of verbiage to copy and paste around every element. Maybe we could automate a lot of this?
Sure enough, Angular Tooltips provide some configuration options for some of this stuff that we want every tooltip to have, such as events for showing and hiding it, and the Close button. When we are defining our main module, the
app module (which of course can be called anything we want), we can configure the tooltips with a call to
angular.module('app', [ '720kb.tooltips' // , anything else we want to inject ]) .config(['tooltipsConfProvider', function configConf(tooltipsConfProvider) { tooltipsConfProvider.configure({ 'showTrigger': "mouseover touchstart", 'hideTrigger': "mouseout click", 'closeButton': true }); }])
And the
span element can now be much smaller:
Foo1 Foo
We can still automate it further, because "Foo1 Foo" is the
fullname field of
participants.foo object. In fact, we can write a whole new directive to consolidate this redundancy. To make the name short, we can call this directive
p-det. The functions for getting the tooltip content that previously belonged to the page controller can belong to this directive instead, which is the proper place for them.
angular.module('app').directive('pDet', function() { return { restrict: 'E', scope: { person: '=person' }, templateUrl: 'templates/pDet.html', link: function($scope, element, attrs, controller, transcludeFn) { $scope.bioBeginning = function(person) { if (person.bio) { var bioWords = person.bio.split(" "); var minBioLength = 0; if (bioWords.length >= 15) minBioLength = 15; else minBioLength = bioWords.length; var minBio = bioWords.slice(0, minBioLength); return minBio.join(" ") + '... Read More'; } return ""; } $scope.participantInfo = function(person) { return "
" + person.fullname + "

" + $scope.bioBeginning(person) + "
"; } } // end of link function } // end of return });
As we see, it will have an argument
person. This will be the same type of object as
We are putting the template for this directive in a separate file
templates/pDet.html, in a
templates directory relative to the application's root directory (of course, it doesn't have to be located there, but wherever makes sense in our application's directory structure). The template will look like this:
{{person.shortname}}
And now an element for each guest in the web page will look like this:

You can automate it further, for example, by having the whole grid be generated by Angular.js from the
participants object. Or so you think. But then you load the page, and a bunch of curly braces flashes before your eyes, because now Angular is rendering not just the tooltips but the panelists' names too. Suddenly you remember how flaky WiFi is at the hotel where the event takes place, and how hard it is to get a decent cell phone connection; what if over a slow network Angular will take forever to download to the attendees phones, and they'll be stuck with a pageful of curly braces? Not only they won't get any helpful tooltips, they won't even see the panelists' names. There must be a way around this, you think. If you can't enhance the user's experience, you should at least not ruin it.
(This is not really relevant in the context of the website I'm using as an example, because it already relies on Angular for navigation. Without Angular it wouldn't work at all. But if your website can work without Angular, then maybe you don't want to make some pages entirely dependent on it.)
You decide that instead of that you will leave the participant names hardcoded on the page. After all, the page is created not by you but by one of the event organizers, who puts together the program in an Excel spreadsheet and exports it as HTML. It has all the names in it already. What you'll do is to create a directive that will transclude those hardcoded strings, participant names. That way even with a slow, unreliable connection people will be able to look up the program grid and see panelist names, even if they won't be able to look up more information about them.
Now we'll create a directive with transclusion. Let's call it
angular .module('app') .directive('pInfo', function() { return { scope: { person: '=person' }, restrict: 'E', transclude: true, templateUrl: 'templates/pInfo.html', link: function($scope, element, attrs, controller, transcludeFn) { $scope.bioBeginning = function(person) { if (person.bio) { var bioWords = person.bio.split(" "); var minBioLength = 0; if (bioWords.length >= 15) minBioLength = 15; else minBioLength = bioWords.length; var minBio = bioWords.slice(0, minBioLength); return minBio.join(" ") + '... Read More'; } return ""; } $scope.participantInfo = function(person) { return "
" + person.fullname + "

" + $scope.bioBeginning(person) + "
"; } } // end of link function } // end of return });
In other words, the Javascript code for it is the same as for the
p-det directive, except of course the template name, and the addition of
transclude: true. But the template will be somewhat different.
<ng-transclude></ng-transclude>
Why two  elements? Because otherwise Angular will throw an error that there are multiple templates asking for transclusion.
The <transclude> element shows where to put the person's name, which is a hard-coded string on the page. The element for each guest will now look like this:

Foo

As a side note,
class="dotted-underline" is this:
.dotted-underline { border-bottom: 1px dotted #000; text-decoration: none; cursor: default; }
and all it does is put a faint underline under the words that are tooltip'able, to indicate to the user that the is something there is you hover or click on the word. Also it causes the cursor to remain the default arrow, instead of changing into a text cursor.
Another side note. The way the tooltip is displayed by default, it is high enough above the word that if you try to put the mouse over it (let's say you want to click "Read more"), the mouse will move off of the word, and the tooltip will go away. To cause it to be displayed lower above the word, I had to make a slight modification to
angular-tooltips.css. In the CSS style
tooltip._top tip I made changed:
top: -9px;

I dunno, you wait hundreds of years for a herb-flavoured beer, and then two come along at once. Just coincidence, I'm sure, but two new beers (ales, strictly), from the Pilot brewery in Leith, Scotland, and the Ilkley brewery in Yorkshire, have been announced this week that go back to the pre-hop tradition of flavouring your drink with whatever herbs and plants you could find in the local fields, hedgerows and woods, or up on the local moors. I'm delighted to see them, because I love herb-flavoured ales. I have just one worry, as a historian.
Both the breweries producing these new herb ales call them "gruit beers". As far as Britain is concerned, this is ahistoric: "gruit" is the Dutch word for the various herb/botanical mixtures used in flavouring pre-hop ales on the Continent, and it's not a word ever used in the past in this country. There IS a similar word found in medieval English, "grout", but the main meaning of "grout" in the context of brewing was either "ground malt or grain" or "the liquid run off from ground malt before boiling". Does it matter if someone today refers to a herb beer as "gruit" without explaining that this isn't actually an English word? Well, probably not, and it certainly makes for an easy label to market herb-flavoured ales under. But it would certainly be wrong to say, or imply, that "gruit" was the name applied to herb ales in Britain in the pre-hop period. So don't, please
Indeed, the "gruit" tradition (Grute in German) on the Continent was very different from anything we had in Britain, in that it involved the sale of the herbal flavourings by the state or its representatives to the brewers, as a revenue-gathering exercise. In those areas where this happened, it seems to have been compulsory for brewers to use gruit.
In Britain, on the other hand, there is a great deal to suggest that much, if not most medieval ale (using the word in its original sense of "unhopped malt liquor") was brewed without herbs, as well as without hops: to give just one piece of evidence, in 1483 (the year Richard III seized the throne), London's ale brewers, who were trying to maintain the difference between (unhopped) ale and (hopped) beer, persuaded the authorities to state that for ale to be brewed in "the good and holesome manner of bruying of ale of old tyme used", no one should "put in any ale or licour [water] whereof ale shal be made or in the wirkyng and bruying of any maner of ale any hoppes, herbes or other like thing but only licour, malt and yeste." So: London ale in the Middle Ages – no hops, no herbs.

We are debating which is is the best way in XAML (for windows phone 8.1) to generate a simple grid with x times y cells, where each cell should be clickable and have it's own datatemplate. What should the container Control for this table be?
One popular idea is to use a listbox with a datatemplate consisting of a stackpanel for each row and each stackpanel holds multiple user Controls represesenting each cell. If the table was a calendar, reprensenting a month view, each dataitem should represent one week, and each stackpanel should hold 7 user Controls representing each day...
Are there any better ideas? It should support MVVM.

There are those who want to put an end to these races and this network's response is let people live and take the risks they want to take. It's hard to say this rider is not living to the fullest.

People Story - Stefan Weitland
"We are always working with the biggest customers and the latest technology."
Stefan Weitland is a chief product owner working with the SAP Cloud Platform. His unique role gives him the ability to be involved from end-to-end on a product, which allows him to see the entire product evolution.
The product owner role can be one of the most challenging roles.
On all projects, the product owner is balancing competing inward-facing and outward-facing needs. Among the inward-facing tasks are participating in planning meetings, sprint reviews, sprint retrospectives and daily scrums; managing the product backlog; answering questions from the team; and simply being available to the team during the sprint.
A product owner's outward-facing tasks include talking to users about their needs; creating and interpreting user feedback; traveling to customer sites; attending industry events; managing stakeholder expectations; prioritizing the product backlog; determining product pricing; developing a medium- and long-term product strategy; watching for industry and market trends; performing competitive analysis; and more.
That is why we are fortunate to have Stefan who has a wealth of knowledge and leadership skills. Stefan joined SAP 12 years ago as a senior developer. Since 2004, he has worked on a new challenge every two or three years to gain valuable experience in the many different areas of the company.
It is the variety of skills across many disciplines that has contributed to his success as a chief product owner. "My experience is a combination of a technical background, technical experience, and really understanding the customer's needs. Plus, having project management skills, and knowing how to drive a project to completion," Stefan says.
During the evolution and development of a product, he often participates in several meetings each day covering technical discussions and problem-solving topics – "there's a problem here, and we work as a team to figure out how we solve it'"
A key part of Stefan's experience is knowing how to focus the team's efforts and successes. "You have to ask your team, 'Where do we want to be in six months? 12 months? 18 months? And what will the customers want?" he says. "It's important to have this view, to understand the requirements, how to handle the needs, and be able to put yourself in their shoes" Stefan says.
"SAP is one of the best employers you can think about," Stefan shares with a smile on his face when talking about the company's benefits and the way it encourages people to take vacation, as well as the personal attitude toward team members.
"One part is the degree of cooperation between different areas. At SAP, you find people of every nationality you can think of," explaining that even though SAP is a global company, it often seems as if "everybody knows each other, works together."
"We are always working with the biggest customers, and the latest technology," Stefan says. "Some technical people, like me – and engineers – are interested in working on such topics [as arise] with the latest technology."
"I can see how the experience of working at SAP to perspective candidates is so desirable. I am proud to work here."

Greely Girls Disciplined for Photo Showing Nazi Salute
CUMBERLAND, Maine (NEWS CENTER) -- Three members of Greely High School's girls basketball team are being disciplined, after an offensive photo and tweets they made surfaced.
School officials say they found out members of the girls' basketball team were making anti-Semetic jokes from an anonymous letter sent to them last week. It shows two members of the team, wearing their uniforms, giving another team member the Nazi salute. We are not disclosing their identities because they are minors. The letter also lists 3 pages of tweets allegedly written by the girls that use offensive and sometimes anti-Semetic language. In multiple tweets, the girls affectionately refer to a teammate as "Hitler."
One tweet, dated December 24th, says "So Jewish to have prac on Christmas Eve day."
Another says "If ---- picked me up, she would've made me do sprints, then put me in a gas chamber."
The letter also states that at least one team member was following and re-tweeted @DictatorHitler, an account that regularly posts anti-Semetic and anti-female tweets.
The girls' language and picture are very troubling to Emily Chaleff, the executive director of the Jewish Community Alliance of Southern Maine. "When situations like this come up when students are using prejudiced and intolerant speech and actions, it shows that the school really needs to seriously institute anti-bias, anti-bullying education and curriculum," Chaleff said.
Greely High School Principal Dan McKeone said that the school has spoken with the girls about their actions, and he doesn't believe they intended any hate or bias. He also says the girls have been disciplined, but he declined to say how because they are minors.
In a letter sent home to parents of members of the basketball team, McKeone and Athletic Director David Shapiro wrote, in part: "...These events, while disturbing, also provide us with an opportunity to teach our children about tolerance and respect... We will be working with the team in order to help them gain a better understanding of the ramifications of incidents such as this. We will also been looking for additional opportunities to educate the greater school community..."
McKeone also said the school has an assembly scheduled in which a member of the Attorney General's office will come to speak about prejudice, hate speech and bullying.
"These were kids that made a mistake, and they learned from it, and they're moving forward," McKeone said.

You know, the problem is that history isn't REAL to kids. Many adults do not pay attention to the history of our world, so why should they? It is all a big joke to them. They live in luxury compared to past generations who had to work for what they wanted. Too, too sad.
