What to Do When a Bee Truck Overturns
A worker bee. (Photo by Kathy Keatley Garvey)
When a bee truck overturns, all sorts of things can happen. None of them is good--unless both the people and the bees fare well.
Bystanders panic. Bees can and do react to all the commotion by stinging the first responders and the bystanders. It's especially difficult at night.
So when Extension apiculturist (emeritus) Eric Mussen of the UC Davis Department of Entomology and Nematology, who retired in June 2014 after 38 years of service, was asked about this, and what first responders can do, we thought we'd share the informatoin.
"It is hard to know where to start with protecting people from bee spills," he says. "Depending upon in what part of the country it happens, the concern about loose bees varies. In a large metropolitan area, it is likely that someone will try to put down (kill) the bees as quickly as possible. In rural agricultural areas, the people value the bees and probably would try to salvage as many hives and bees as possible."
"Every potentially responsible agency should have a list of beekeepers to contact when such an incident happens. The beekeepers can go to the scene, access the problem, and help clean it up."
Eric Mussen
Mussen cautions that if you respond to the scene, whether you are law enforcement, a firefighter, bulldozer or front-loader driver, towing crew, or news media, you should not exit your vehicle without wearing proper protective gear. " If you have an inkling that you may be allergic to bee stings, you should not even be at the scene. A messy problem can turn into a life-threatening emergency when allergic people get stung."
"Water misted into the flying bees will tend to 'ground' them, temporarily, and many will drown," he warns. "To be sure the bees are down for good, some use fire-fighting foam instead of water. This will cause an enormous financial loss for the beekeeper, but it calms things down rather quickly. If the bees form a gigantic cluster under an overpass, the bees can be salvaged or, in at least one case, burned up using a flame thrower."
"People should understand that it takes quite a while to upright the hives and get the frames back into them," Mussen says. "They should also know that the bees are not likely to go back into the hives, on their own, until nighttime." Bees do not fly at night.
"If the bees are being 'rescued,' someone has to help haul away the up-righted hives and put them in a safe place," Mussen points out. "Not infrequently the assisting, anonymous beekeepers leave with the hives and never return them to the owner. Some empty hives have to be left at the scene to collect the remaining bees that are flying around. They can be picked up early the next morning."
Those are just some considerations, Mussen says. "Every event is different. If the emergency folks have met with a few beekeepers to talk about what to do, it will go a lot easier if it ever happens."
Good advice.

The only thing worse than life in the trenches was having to get out of them. The Imperial War Museum's collection of podcasts now includes a description of trench raids, by men who took part in crawling across No Man's Land in the pitch dark to get something out of the other guys' trench.
When I first started reading about British and Commonwealth forces, I was puzzled by the reference to Mills bombs. I thought they were mortars.
Doughboys standing around watching someone else light a mortar.
But, no, a Mills bomb is a hand grenade, not unlike the one that showed up in a sewing machine last summer.

FIAT used by Pope Francis in Philly visit up for auction
By Andrew Parent
Pope Francis Auctions
J. DiGidjunis/Courtesy of the Archdiocese of Philadelphia
The second of two FIAT 500L cars used by Pope Francis during his historic visit to Philadelphia in September 2015 will be up for auction through Dec. 20.
The second of two FIAT cars used by Pope Francis during his September 2015 visit to Philadelphia is headed for auction.
Bidding for the FIAT 500L opened 9 a.m. Wednesday and will last until Dec. 20, the Archdiocese of Philadelphia said in a statement.
Proceeds from the auction, conducted in partnership with Charitybuzz, will benefit the 2017 Catholic Charities Appeal, which gives support to tens of thousands of people through numerous organizations, programs and ministries within the archdiocese, officials said.
"I'm deeply grateful to FIAT Chrysler for its generosity in giving the Archdiocese of Philadelphia the two FIATS used by Pope Francis during his visit to Philadelphia on September 26-27, 2015," Archbishop Charles J. Chaput said in a statement. "When we learned that these vehicles would be given to us, we wanted to use them in a manner consistent with Pope Francis' call to love and care for the poor. Our partnership with Charitybuzz provides an excellent opportunity to benefit society's most vulnerable and marginalized members."
The first FIAT was auctioned in January 2016, the proceeds from which benefitted Catholic Charities Appeal and various ministries of the Secretariat for Catholic Human Services.
More than two years have passed since Pope Francis paraded down the Benjamin Franklin Parkway – pausing from time to time to bless babies and kiss sick children – before serving Mass in Center City to some 900,000 people who turned out to see the pontiff.
More on the auction can be found here.

While all eyes were on the cryptocurrency segment today, as the major coins continue to fall sharply, traditional financial markets have also been very active before Thanksgiving. The last days have been dominated by the strong rally in US Treasuries (a dip in yields, in other words) which carried the yield curve to a 2-month low today, due to Jerome Powell's dovish words, global growth worries, and European worries regarding the Brexit process and Italy.
The Dollar has also been feeling the effects of the falling Treasury yields, and after hitting a more than one-year high against the Euro this month, the Greenback fell to its lowest level in almost two weeks. The long-term uptrend is not in danger in the pair and in the broader Dollar index, and with no higher swing high in the EUR/USD even the short-term downtrend is intact. That said, should the pair remain above the 1.1440 level, a short-term trend change could be ahead.
US stocks had an ugly day despite a quiet overnight session which was helped by the continued optimism in China, in the face of the diplomatic disaster on the APEC summit. The meeting ended without a formal communiqué for the first time ever, due to the US-Chinese spat that took another turn when US Vice President Mike Pence attacked China on several issues, dampening hopes of a quick resolution to the dispute before the looming Trump-Xi meeting.
The major indices finished sharply lower after a steep morning selloff on Wall Street and the Nasdaq got very close to its October lows due to the weakness in some of the largest tech names such as Apple (AAPL) and Facebook (FB).
While both stocks fell on bearish news, with the report on a significant iPhone production- cut being the most worrying one, the selloff in the key momentum names is a more structural problem, which is likely the sign of the broader bearish shift that we have been following in recent months.
While the year-end cold still holds a stronger bounce, thanks to seasonality and a possible positive turn in the US-Chinese relations, we will still view all rallies as selling opportunities in equities.
Commodities had a bullish session thanks in part to the Greenback's weakness, but gold, copper, and oil were also helped by very different reasons too. While gold benefited from the bearish intraday shift in risk assets, crude oil continued its oversold bounce after a brief spike towards last week's low, while copper was boosted by the stability in Chinese assets.
The precious metal is holding above the key short-term $1215 level, and although bulls are still not out of the woods following this year's selloff, a move above the October highs would be a very positive sign for the commodity, which we still view as one of the top picks for the coming years.
Copper is still trading in a broad consolidation pattern, despite the rally of the past days, which was sparked by trade optimism. The long-term fundamentals remain hostile for the industrial metal, given the global slowdown, and especially the state of the Chinese economy, so even in the case of a move above the formation long positions should only be considered for trading.
That said, the short-term outlook is rather neutral, as the year-end could see feel-good risk rally (with copper possibly bouncing as high as $3), even as we expect the commodity to continue its broader downtrend.

Review Round-Up: Broadway Gets Hard
The cast of "Hands on a Hardbody." (photo: Chad Batka)
What happens when you pit 10 Texans against each other in a contest of stamina and strategy in order to win a brand new truck? Apparently you get a pretty decent new Broadway musical according to the reviews that have surfaced this week of Hands on a Hardbody.
Inspired by true events (and a 1997 documentary of the same name), the creative team of Doug Wright (book), Amanda Green (music and lyrics), Trey Anastasio (music), Neil Pepe (direction) and Sergio Trujillo (musical staging) have created a humorous and poignant look at ambition and the different facets of the American dream.
In spite of good notices, the musical is struggling at the box office — big time. According to The New York Post, there are rumors that the show's closing is eminent in spite of stand-out performances by Keith Carradine and Hunter Foster.
Hands on a Hardbody
Brooks Atinkson Theatre
Here's what the critics have to say…
"Although it's far from fully loaded in a conventional sense, this scrappy, sincere new musical brings a fresh, handmade feeling to Broadway, which mostly traffics in the machine tooled. (Last year's Tony winner "Once" was a notable exception.) Burrowing into the troubled hearts of its characters, it draws a cleareyed portrait of an America that's a far cry from the fantasyland of most commercial musicals. "Hands on a Hardbody" simply sings forth a story of endurance, hardship and the dimming American dream, which increasingly seems to hover on the distant horizon like some last-ditch motel whose neon lights are blinking out one by one." The New York Times
"The production is earnest and solidly performed by a cast including Keith Carradine and Hunter Foster under the direction of Neil Pepe. But all of their skill, and the authors', can't finesse a problem of emotional scale. How much can even a Texan want a truck? When the opening number ("Human Drama Kind of Thing") announces that the winning contestant is "bound for glory," you feel the workings of a giant air pump artificially swelling the characters' motivations to singable size. For all the worthy effort to valorize lives not usually depicted in musicals, this has the opposite effect: It makes them seem petty.
But then something happens near the end of the first act: The Bible-clutcher (Keala Settle, sublime) gets the giggles. This leads to a bravura laughing aria and, eventually, a mostly a cappella gospel number called "Joy of the Lord" that successfully combines the personal and communal and lifts the show into musical-theater heaven. It hasn't much to do with the truck, but it's daring and thrilling and wins some sort of contest, hands down." Vulture
"Well, Broadway finally got itself an all-American musical in "Hands on a Hardbody." The question is, will an all-American audience go for it? It's hard to picture hotel concierges, travel agents and group sales ladies pitching tourists a show about some working-class stiffs from East Texas clinging desperately to a cherry-red pickup truck in a marathon competition to win it. Better to comp New York cabbies and cops to spread the word about this offbeat but totally endearing show. Still, no matter how this dark tuner fares under Gotham's cold glare, regional bookers should be lining up six deep." Variety

Disney Donates to Mexico Earthquake Recovery
Posted By: Craig Smith
Image courtesy Disney
It was announced today that Disney will be supporting a group of non-profits leading the recovery efforts in Mexico through a $500,000 donation and in-kind contributions. This is in response to a series of earthquakes that have wrecked havoc on central Mexico, including a 7.1 magnitude quake that struck close to Mexico City last Tuesday, a 6.1 this past Saturday that was southeast of that one and an earlier one of 8.1 magnitude on the southern coast of Mexico.
Here is the official release announcing the donation (source):
The Walt Disney Company Donates $500,000 in Humanitarian Aid to Support Mexican Communities Impacted by Recent Earthquakes
BURBANK, Calif., Sept. 26, 2017 — The Walt Disney Company (NYSE: DIS) has committed $500,000 to aid in humanitarian relief efforts across Central Mexico in response to the recent earthquakes impacting the region. The donation will support the disaster response and recovery efforts of the Mexican Red Cross, Save the Children, and UNICEF. Disney will make additional donations of in-kind goods as needs are identified.
"As our thoughts and prayers go out to the people of Mexico, we are once again overwhelmed by the resiliency and unity shown in response to a natural disaster," said Claudio Chiaromonte, Executive Vice President and Managing Director, The Walt Disney Company Latin America. "Disney has a long tradition of supporting communities all over the world, and we are proud to join with the people of Mexico as they begin to recover and rebuild from these terrible tragedies."
The Walt Disney Company and its affiliates employ more than 250 people in Mexico, between its Disney offices and the ESPN Deportes network, and Disney has a long-standing history in the region dating back to the 1940s.
Disney works on an ongoing basis with numerous nonprofit organizations on emergency preparedness efforts, including sharing lifesaving information with families before and during emergencies, having supplies prepositioned and at-the-ready to respond to natural disasters, and providing resources to activate large-scale responses in the event of a disaster.

I am founder and editor of DisneyNews.us. My passion for all things Disney goes pretty far back to my first trip to Walt Disney World in the mid-80's. I have since returned to the magical place more than 20 times.I started this site when I came to the realization that I spent a significant portion of my day reading articles about Disney and watching Disney content with my 8-year old, so it made sense that I would start sharing some of what I read and see and building a little community around it.Other interests include 80's nostalgia, vintage toys, video games, LEGO, Star Wars and tech gadgets. Other sites include DMR and VideoGamesStats.com.


I've chosen Joomla because it basically has 80% of what i need with the dynamic content, flexibility. Part of my project is to sell Ebooks online,however searching through the "extensions on the joomla site" none of them seem to fit the bill for what i need it for, most of them are ecommerce shopping carts or basic payment systems. Or perhaps im not looking in the right place? I have a very thin idea of what might work, but have many doubts because im new to joomla system.
I'm not selling any tangible products as such, only selling a few ebooks, would like something that the user can download(ebook) and pay for it through a payment gateway such as paypal. Am unsure as to what to use as i am a 'newbie' and want something off the shelf customise it a bit and run it.
guys and gals any suggestions for a newbie to Joomla that can accomodate for this?
VirtueMart integrates with many payment processor gateways and will allow you to sell non-tangible goods via download.
You may also want to check out mosIPN http://www.phil-taylor.com/Joomla/Components/mosIPN/.
Re: Selling Ebook Extension (Need an off the shelf solution/package) suggestions?
Hi, I was in your shoes a while back.
I knew that I wanted to use Joomla and I knew I wanted to sell digital products like eBooks. I too, would recommend checking out Virtuemart. The toughest part is getting it all set up. Once it is setup, it works great! Virtuemart integrates with Authorize.net and Paypal.
Learn to sell Digital Downloads[/b] using Virtuemart?
your virtuemart solutions website seems to be down, have you moved it anywhere perhaps?
I too wish to sell my novels as ebook on my joomla site.
I tried Virtuemart but no luck.
Surely it can be done?
There must be a download somewhere that allows me to load my book in a zip file, have someone buy it using paypal and then be able to download it, surely?
It sounds simple enough...But I have the feeling it is not going to be so easy.
What problems did you have with VirtueMart? I've set it up alot of times just for this type of download and never had any problems.
VirtueMart is a full blown shopping cart solution. So that may not be what you want. You may want to check out these others.
bonewoman wrote: I too wish to sell my novels as ebook on my joomla site.
I just couldn't get the thing working...virtuemart, that is.
I just found P2DXT which says it can do all that I want an incorporate paypal.
Will this do it for me?
I don't have any experience with P2DXT so I can't really say if it will or not. I do have experience with VirtueMart though. I'll send you a PM.
Came across this site..Hope it helps ?
I recently added an ebook to my site and I placed a PayPal Buy Now button (I wanted a quick and easy setup)on the article page, per PayPal when setting up the button just add the PDF link to to the button in step 3.
I'm still not clear on one point regarding setting it up in Joomla 1.5.
QUESTION: If the article is published, isn't the page available and it's available to download for free and if it's unpublished how do customers download it after paying for it. (do I publish/unpublished) the ebook.
Thanks you in advance for your help/support.

Oh no, the Resident Evil series has competition and its name is Nocturne!
It's true, Terminal Reality has created something that may just be considered the minimum standard for the year 2000 in terms of quality PC titles. The realism in this game just blows the cover off any other game like it. Although visually the most frighteningly beautiful masterpiece around, it's the gameplay, story, and ambience that takes a bite out of Capcom's neck. However, with a completely simple interface and tons of minor problems, the developers of Nocturne could have lessened some of the frustrations involved in the game to make it even more enjoyable, but they still have outdone themselves with this superb groundbreaker.
The game requires a minimum of 96 megabytes of RAM for 3D hardware acceleration, 500 megabytes of hard disk space, and at least a Pentium MMX system to run. It's definitely not your average game, nor is it a game that can be played by those who can't afford the luxury of a high-end system. In fact, let's just throw the Pentium MMX out the window and get a Pentium II-400 at least. And forget playing in software mode, this game has got to be played with a 3D card -- it has to be seen to believe in all its artsy glory.
Now that we've got the monster hogging requirements out of the way, let's talk gameplay. The entire game's environment is at night and thus the title fits it appropriately. When you start the game you are required to manually adjust your monitor to the exact specifications of the contrast and brightness pitch levels that the game insists. This was done obviously for complete visual engrossment for the player; interactivity never seemed more involving!
What we're treated to is a splendid yet wicked slew of pre-rendered backgrounds with very cool, multiple source, real time dynamic lighting effects, volumetric fogging and animation. Everything is made to look realistic, from tumbleweeds floating across the ground to slushy rain pouring and splashing randomly all over the place -- even on the characters and enemies. There are also lightning effects and clouds that darken the area as you move along! As well, Stranger's trench coat flutters in the breeze, and even curtains wrap him with the smoothest of silky movements.
That's not all. The creatures you come upon are motion-captured so realistically that you're not going to want to play this one alone. Probably one of the best visuals of the game is the candles and other fire effects; it's just like the real thing. There are also many more perspectives than the Resident Evil games have, although in certain areas it becomes a bit of a pain to see what you're doing. Sometimes when you perform a move such as shooting a monster at the dumbwaiter, you will become quite frustrated because it transitions between three different angles throughout the entire action in a slightly slow and delayed manner. Also, if there is too much animation onscreen, the game tends to slow down a bit and becomes somewhat choppy.
Another aspect that can get annoying is the fact that at times you don't know where an object lies because of the pre-rendered background. It doesn't take advantage of a more 3D perspective and thus you're liable to end up making mistakes by turning down the wrong path and falling off a bridge and what not. One other annoyance is that the dumbwaiter has a few glitches. Sometimes when you pull on the rope the platform goes down by itself while you're still stranded in mid-air!
As well, you can even fall off the side of the screen at the tower level without realizing it because your character falls forever, and then you have to restart or load a saved game. And then there's also a problem with screen transitioning. It doesn't immediately pop to the next screen when you've already entered through a doorway. Instead it allows Stranger to run through part of it before changing the screen, and that might affect you from getting an aim on monsters in that next screen! However, all of these problems are pretty minor compared to the kind of excellent gameplay you'll be experiencing.
The shadows, textures, and blood and gore are so real you're going to probably turn on the lights every once in a while and take a break. The bloodstains stay on the ground as do the body parts of your enemies; you don't see this kind of thing with Resident Evil, Dino Crisis or even Silent Hill. In those games, as soon as you reenter a room you've been to before, the bloodstains are gone and sometimes the body parts are gone as well. Not in this game!
There is only one level of difficulty and once you're finished you probably don't need to play this again. However, it's broken down into four different chapters that tie in at the end with an epilogue of sorts using an in-game cut scene. From little tasks like stealing a movie reel and replacing it with another, to rescuing townspeople from their village and securing them at a church, the game keeps you engrossed with some of the best stories ever written for a computer game. With this kind of engine, it is not doubtful that there may be many gold editions or extra mission packs available for the game in the future.
The intensity you experience while playing can be really high, especially in scenes like the Chicago sections of the game where you face undead mobsters. You have to be paranoid in this game to survive. It is to the misfortune of the player who pulls his weapons out too late as the monsters attack from all sides. It's a bit difficult to turn around fast enough, as the game should have implemented a 180-degree turn button. But it's not a big deal.
Many of the monsters include werewolves, goons, drones, gargoyles and vampires (and vampire brides), imps, Sentinels, ghouls, skeletons and flesh-eating zombies that pop out of the ground from their graves. You basically get a really simple interface consisting of switching weapons and items. It's not very complex as are the puzzles, but it really gets addicting as the game progresses throughout its long chapters. And although it's not exactly scary per se and lacks the complete adventure element seen in Resident Evil, it does have plenty of secrets and surprises -- even one element that can scare the heck out of anyone. What is that, you ask? Well, if you come upon the floating ghost statues that whisper with an echoing, jittery effect, you'll see what I mean!
There is slight nudity in the game but most of it is during the room with Succubus tied to her bed. Turn off the lights and you'll be able to cross the room and grab the remote control for the elevator without needing to see her or listen to her seduce you. Otherwise you're in for a trap when she becomes a demon, ready to bite your head off. Other areas of the game include larva that can explode into nasty bits and pieces after you've thrown dynamite on them.
On that note, dynamite can be aimed in any direction, but if you're not careful to release it in time then you'll become bits and pieces yourself. As well, the body parts of monsters can be picked up and used as weapons or bait for triggering traps. The realism doesn't end there when you witness the blood dripping off your weapon or blood splattering everywhere after you've chucked the arm of a zombie!
The sounds have to be heard to believe, and it doesn't take a rocket scientist to realize that although stereo is not capable of true surround sound, this game mimics something very close to it. This game also takes full advantage of the best ambience there is, almost movie-quality. For instance, if the angle is close up at a fireplace, you'll hear the crackling very loudly. Or if a cut scene switches close to two agents of the Spookhouse organization practicing their fights, you'll hear it as if you were there! And from the splashing rain to the windy gust (however gentle or harsh), Nocturne will put you right into the action.
Speaking of sounds, the music theme is of cinema quality and is very spooky. Of course, like Resident Evil, there are many areas with no music which lends an even lonelier existence for your character. Also, the voice acting is some of the best ever, this side of The Sixth Sense. With the very low, deep vocals of Stranger to the accented, sharp voice of one of your half-vampire partners, Svetlana Lupescu, the believability is truly convincing and is pulled off quite well. Although Stranger doesn't talk that much, he appears very real and tough when he does -- almost like Duke Nukem or Sarge from the Army Men series.
Nocturne is a wish come true for those horror fans and anyone who wants to be surprised by a great game with great story and characters, true-to-life visual and audio effects, a simple interface and the most blood and gore ever seen in a game of its kind. With only a few minor problems in the game, nothing takes away the fact that it is a groundbreaking title that challenges the Resident Evil series to the core. Just make sure you've got enough money for that high-end system!
Graphics: With perhaps the best graphics ever for a 1999 PC title, Nocturne can't be beat with its lighting, fog, and animation effects.
Sound: The ambience lends a spooky experience as well as plain realism with varying degrees of volume and distance.
Enjoyment: This game was very enjoyable, a masterpiece that's addicting. It's a bit on the easy side but the story is very involving and the action is intense. There are a few minor problems that can get a little annoying but once you get past that everything is dandy.

At the April 13 Board Meeting, the Peoria Unified Governing Board approved boundary changes to address future growth in the district. The changes will take place beginning with the 2017-18 school year.
To view a copy of the current map and the new map, effective August 2017, click here.
The Board also approved the following recommendations:
The continuity of 7th-graders to remain in their current school through the 8th-grade
Siblings may remain with their 8th-grade brother/sister, including Kindergarten enrolment, for one year
Transportation will be provided for one year for students impacted by the change
Special education students will be provided levels of service as determined by their IEP team
No high school student will be reassigned from their current school due to elementary school boundary changes (including incoming freshman)
They also asked that the Governing Board call for a bond election since the approved boundary adjustments only represent a short-term solution for the rapid growth. The Governing Board also voted to call a Citizens' Advisory Committee to explore calling for a bond election. The Committee is expected to bring forward a recommendation in May.
The Boundary Committee proposed the boundary adjustments after receiving community feedback in March and April of 2017. Committee minutes may be found on the district's website here.

Q: easy way to add javascript functions in asp.net web site I have around 10 to 12 functions in JavaScript. I want to call 2 or 3 of them in the event when control, get, focus, and other functions I used by those functions.
I have all those functions for virtual keypad ... I would like to add virtual keypad as on the master page (I have already created virtual keypad in JavaScript using HTML form).
I have already added that code into a master page and my keypad is working, but it only works with simple HTML controls (that is, having no runat="server" attribute). It doesn't work when I add runat="server".
I don't know how to call this functions from content or child pages.
My code is below:--
(this code for JavaScript that i added in master page...this is part of code(not full))
<%@ Master Language="C#" AutoEventWireup="true" CodeFile="MasterPage2.master.cs" Inherits="MasterPage2" %>

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head id="Head1" runat="server">
    <title></title>
    <script language="javascript" type="text/javascript">

        function setId(el) {
            id = el;
            //alert(el);
            document.getElementById(id).focus();
            reset();
            return 0;
        }

        function restoreCode(evt) {
            ButtonUp(kcode);
        }

        function writeKeyPressed(evt) {
            InsertChar('k', kcode);

            return false;
        };

        function InsertChar(mode, c) {
            document.getElementById(id).focus();
        }

        function ButtonDown(c) {
            reset();
        }

        function ButtonUp(c) {
            //codes
            resets();
        }

        function Shift() {
            //codes
        }
    </script>

When I am calling it from content page that is HTML control not having runat="server" attribute in code then it will work.
 <input id="txt_pwd" type="password" onfocus="setId('txt_pwd');" />

When I am calling it from content page (that is, an ASP control having runat="server" attribute in code) then it will not work.
<input id="txt_pwd" type="password" onfocus="setId('txt_pwd');" runat="server" />

Please can any one tell me a solution that I will call my function (having on the master page) using server side control from content page.

A: It isn't working when you use runat="server" because .NET changes the ID of controls. So in the runat="server" case, your JavaScript is looking for the wrong id. One way to fix it is to tell .NET not to change the ID using the ClientIDMode.
<input id="txt_pwd" type="password" clientidmode="Static" onfocus="setId('txt_pwd');" runat="server" />

There are other ways to get the generated ClientID if you don't use static mode, as you wouldn't want to use that in repeaters or if there is a chance the ID may be a duplicate. In that case, you can use .ClientID, as in:
document.getElementById('<%= txt_pwd.ClientID %>');

Reading on ClientID
An easier approach may just be to use onfocus="setId(this);" and then
function setId(el) {
    id = el.id;

Really impressed with the gluten free crust!
Something was burnt on th bottom of the pizza. It had a taste of ash throughout. Definitely not what was intended for sure. Definitely feel like a refund is deserved.
SO LATE. Was ice cold when it arrived.
It took 1.5 hrs to get and it was ice cold. The driver handed it to me and took off. May have been a good pizza warm?
It was stone cold when I got it.
2 tiny pizzas came to $43, took a while, and weren't very good! :( May be a great restaurant, but my only experience wasn't wonderful.

MRC Mengo clinic and research station opened
2 December 2014 London School of Hygiene & Tropical Medicine London School of Hygiene & Tropical Medicine https://lshtm.ac.uk/themes/custom/lshtm/images/lshtm-logo-black.png
As part of the events to mark 25 years of existence, the MRC/UVRI Uganda Research Unit on AIDS opened their forth field station on 7th November, 2014.
Based in Mengo- Kampala, the £900,000 facility which houses a clinic that targets disadvantaged women as well as laboratories for research was constructed with funding from the UK Medical Research Council (MRC UK) and the UK Department for International Development (DFID) under the MRC/DFID concordat agreement and was commissioned by the Hon. Dr. Elioda Tumwesigye the Minister Of State for Health & General Duties.
While officiating at the opening event, the Minister commended the MRC/UVRI Uganda Research Unit on AIDS for their fight against HIV/AIDS through investing in research and called for increased research in non-communicable diseases. Dr. Tony. Peatfield who represented the MRC CEO, Sir John Savill, noted that the new clinic would provide the Uganda Unit with a key physical presence in Kampala, closer to an expanding range of partners involved in both infectious and non-communicable disease research as well as offer opportunities potentially to expand the scientific epidemiological and social science activities beyond HIV infection alone.
The event was attended by partners including the community advisory board members, clinic clients and representatives from our collaborators and partner institutions like KCCA, CDC, JCRC and the Uganda Police. Some members of the Scientific Advisory Committee were also present. At the end of the various speakers and the edutainment from SAIL Uganda, the take home message for our clients, partners and staff was clear; the fight against HIV/AIDS still continues.

How do you make it so your dedicated server doesn't have priest penalties?
Spellmod that comes with the server modloader has an option to remove priest restrictions.
Skillmod by @luceat can remove the skill/stat gain penalty on priest too.
I can't get that modloader to work no matter what I do. I have followed the steps very meticulously, but it doesn't work.
Were you able to make the patched wurmlauncher.exe? Or were you getting stuck before this?


Nair & Co LLC is a boutique Dispute Resolution and Restructuring & Insolvency practice, with roots in one of Singapore's largest law firms. Although established only very recently, in October 2017, the firm has earned considerable recognition, including as a 'Name to Know' in Singapore by the Global Restructuring Review and as a "solid firm with exceptional expertise and good response times" in Benchmark Litigation 2018.
Since inception, the firm has been able to add Corporate/Commercial, Shipping, and Construction capabilities to our service offerings.
The firm is driven by a dynamic team of lawyers and staff who are committed to building long-term partnerships, and whose goal is to grow with our clients, to own our clients' every difficulty and to share in their every triumph.
Nair & Co LLC's diverse client base ranges from multinational companies, banks, and international law firms, to shareholders and directors dealing with boardroom disputes, and even an animal welfare group. The firm's lawyers have acted as counsel in landmark cases in cross-border schemes of arrangement, clawback claims in liquidations, private banking, and in construction and tort claims. To all clients, Nair & Co LLC promises the highest level of care, commitment and attention.
Nair & Co was founded by Suresh Nair, a restructuring and insolvency star lawyer in Singapore, after departing from Advocatus Law in 2017. The firm hired a counsel Clarence Lun and partner Jean Foo from Joseph Tan Jude Benny and Fortis Law Corporation respectively in early 2018, reinforcing its litigation and corporate practice.

For thirty years, a secret agency called the Southern Reach has monitored expeditions into Area X—a remote and lush terrain mysteriously sequestered from civilization. After the twelfth expedition, the Southern Reach is in disarray, and John Rodriguez (a.k.a. "Control") is the team's newly appointed head. From a series of interrogations, a cache of hidden notes, and more than two hundred hours of profoundly troubling video footage, the secrets of Area X begin to reveal themselves—and what they expose pushes Control to confront disturbing truths about both himself and the agency he's promised to serve.
The first eight hours of the book are spent on establishing setting. I didn't find the character of Control to be particularly exciting as an individual, like I did find the Biologist in "Annihilation," Control's commentary on the other characters pulled the plot along and ended up making the book impossible to stop listening to. The final two hours of the narration exploded in creepy action, and I was so grateful for having such a well-developed foundation from which to leap into the insanity of the climax. Bronson Pinchot's employment of different voices for each character, and dramatic and pensive pauses in Control's monologue, add to the engaging nature of the text. After finishing Authority, I felt on edge for two days from the powerful atmosphere created by Pinchot and VanderMeer. I am looking forward to reading Acceptance!

Thought it was long past time to write a post. So what have I been doing- well I have to admit it has not been sewing.The mailman did deliver something quilty for me though so my nose has been in this book-I do love the service the Book Depository gives.
When I have not been working it has been tidying and packing. I am putting my house on the market as I am moving back to New Zealand in a couple of months. My sewing room has been packed up,although the sewing machine is still sitting there. I now need to get some handwork sorted-my Josephs Coat is very slow in progress so I need to get a few blocks prepared ready to sew.
A very good job came up for the midwifery manager of the Southland Maternity Unit and I was encouraged to apply,which I did and have been offered the job. On my trip back for mothers birthday I actually spent more time in the air than on the ground as I flew down to Invercargill for my interview,then back to the middle of the North Island to my mothers party. I am just waiting for the contract to arrive but it should all be ok and if so I will start in the middle of April. The second position I started here in Brisbane is a short term contract that finishes at the end of March and I wanted to honour that which they have been aware of the whole process.
Invercargill is right at the southern end of New Zealand and so will be fairly cold and windy but is a lovely small city which will offer a new way of life,and I am looking forward to it. There are two quiltiing shops and four golf courses so I should be fine!! It's a part of the country that is close to skiing, lots of bush walks and coastal areas. I do have friends and a brother and sister in law who live there as well so that is good. It is all a bit of a whirlwind and what makes it worse was that I had started to paint inside my house before this all happened so the paint brush has been working overtime.
The great thing about blogging is it doesn't matter where in the world you are as long as there is access to a computer then the friends are there. So if I don't post alot over the next few weeks I will still be here but busy sorting out the transfer.
Congratulations on the new job! I don't envy you the packing and moving though!
I wish you all the best and yes bloggers are everywhere in it doesn't matter where you are.
Wahoo Marls, welcome home, even though you're not quite here yet! You sound really positive about your decision which is great and I wish you all the best with everything needing to be done before then.
Congratulations on the new job and the move. It sounds like you will be moving to a very nice area.Hope to hear from you soon.
OH I got all excited when you said you were moving back here... till I read more! Invercargill! so far from me! Booo hooo.... I would have loved to meet you. Maybe one day eh?
What an awesome job...you must be a very clever girl! CONGRATULATIONS on getting such an awesome position.
Congrats! on your successes ... did you have a lovely time for Mother's bday?
I am so happy for you - just hope you have time to keep in touch with us all!
Congratulations, Marls! And best wishes. Such an exciting time. But I understand it can be tough when everything moves quickly. Glad you will be close to family again. Invercargill sounds like a lovely city. I was on the south island for a week last April, so I have an idea of the area you'll be in. Beautiful! My favorite place was Doubtful Sound. Blessings for a safe trip, success in your new job, and joy in your new life. Please keep us posted as you are able!
wahoo, Invercargill huh!! It's not a bad place to be, you must visit Kitznthings if you have not already done so - in Spey St, it is just fabulous. Good luck with your packing!
Congrats on the new job! It should be very exciting to move, but I know it takes time and a lot of work!
Congrats on the the new job and move! I hope you settle in quickly! Tell us all about it!
Cold & windy and 2 quilt shops....sounds like heaven to me!
Thanks for visiting Buderim Patchwork Marls, yes that I spy really is something.
Brooklyn's quilt is beautiful, love the 3-d aspects, she is a lucky little girl.


← What is Leaving Your Hand?
I know, I know. I haven't posted for a few days. Because I'm in the ZONE.
There's no other word for it. You know . . . that place where everything just clicks and you write and write and write and then read it later and wonder who it was that composed such literary genius. You look furtively over your shoulder, watching for the plagiarism police because what you just saved in your doc file can't possible be something original from your very own imagination.
The ZONE happens. Not often enough to suit me, but it does happen.
So I'm going to take advantage of this little nugget of time where all my ducks are in a row and things are moving along rather nicely. Katie Blue is pulling some pretty awesome stuff out of my brain and I don't want to lose it.
Maybe I'll see you here tomorrow.
And then again, maybe I won't.
By the way – this is my 400th blog post. Wow.

Our social media editor's favourite moments on Twitter
To celebrate reaching 500,000 Twitter followers, our "social media queen," Haley Overland, looks back on her favourite moments and shares her secrets of success.
By Haley Overland
Photo: Sun Ngo
We've reached 500,000 followers on Twitter!
For Twitter lovers, this is major milestone. For non-Twitter lovers, like my mother, trust me, this is a big deal. It's an accomplishment, to be sure, particularly since only a handful of Canadian media brands have reached this milestone. So, say it with me: WOOHOO!
When I first came to Today's Parent, back in May 2010, there was some hesitancy around social media. We wanted to utilize Twitter because we already had a significant number of followers (around 30,000), but we weren't quite sure how to do it, and editors felt shy about joining in. Besides, I was new to Today's Parent—could they trust me to keep everything on brand? Despite the name of my personal twitter handle, @cheaty, the team went for it and put their trust in my cheaty little hands.
Our first tweet ever, March 2009. That link doesn't even work anymore.
And why not? I made it clear off the bat that the name of the game for me on Twitter is "authenticity." Although I tweet on behalf of a major brand, I'm an actual human and a parent, like most of our followers; I am "today's parent" as much as I am Today's Parent.
So, every time I tweet, I'm thinking of who's on the receiving end of my 140 (or less!) characters, as if we were bumping into each other in the baby aisle at the drugstore (or on the labour-and-delivery floor at the hospital—yes, I did bump into one of my readers after giving birth to my son!). No matter how many followers we have, you are important to me. Indeed, trolls aside, I try to answer every question or acknowledge every tweet that comes our way.
Some days, I feel like "Parenting Yoda" because I often get big parenting questions to answer as wisely as possible in teeny-tiny-little tweets.
Often, moms and dads just want to connect and be heard—especially during frustrating, helpless times. And I'm honoured to be the person on the other end of that tweet.
Around here, they call me the Social Media Queen. What on Earth have I done to help get us to 500K followers? If you ask me, here's the simple truth: I've been a real person, and I've tried to connect. This strategy, along with creativity, clean, tight tweeting, great content from Today's Parent (of course), good timing, a little luck and the invaluable help from my colleagues—particularly Nadine Silverthorne and Sasha Emmons, who contribute kick-ass ideas and inspire me daily to put the utmost energy and skill into this awesome platform—have brought us 500K followers and some of my favourite Twitter moments. Checkit!
Haley's favourite @Todaysparent Twitter moments:
*Tweets from celebs. Since I am also our Celebrity Candy Queen, it shouldn't surprise you that my all-time favourite Twitter moment was when Pink retweeted us shortly after her Grammy's 2014 performance to tell us, "Your tweet means the most"...
*Getting verified. "Was this for real or a spam email?" I remember asking our IT department. It was, indeed, real, and we are one of the very, very few Canadian media brands who are verified on Twitter.
*Over a dozen successful Twitter parties. Nadine and I host these babies together, and we have a blast doing it—so much so that we'll often throw parties just for the fun of it, with no incentive other than to connect and enjoy the community we've grown. I still get a thrill every time our Twitter parties trend.
*Live tweeting the Royal baby! We were among the first in Canada to tweet the news that the Duchess of Cambridge was in labour—a result of dumb luck. My husband, Josh, happened to be going out of town at 4 a.m. that morning, and he texted me from the cab!
*#TPlove. When you have (hundreds of!) thousands of followers, you feel the love. Last Valentine's Day, we asked parents to tell us what their kids say when they ask them what "love" means, and it was the sweetest thing ever.
*The thanks I get. I go home happy every time we help someone.
*Customer service. I love pleasing our subscribers by giving them fast and efficient help.
*Immediate feedback. It's always rewarding to hear what readers think of our hard work and then see them sharing it with others.
*#TPkidjokes. Inspired by my own son's silly joke, I had a blast asking our followers to tweet jokes their kids love to tell. The tweets were so cute we created an article out of them.
I have so many other favourite moments. This right here might top them all. Thanks, Today's Parent, for giving me the opportunity to be your voice on this amazing platform. And thank you to all our readers and Twitter followers for making @Todaysparent such vibrant, supportive, truly amazing community.
JOIN US: Thursday, April 24, at 1 p.m. EST for a big Twitter party in honour of this milestone! There will be giveaways, expert tips and fun conversation. No RSVP required: Simply follow us @todaysparent and/or use the #TP500K hashtag. Tweet you then!
Love... xo Haley-O

Big 12 Media Days give players newfound attention
For four TCU starters, day one of Big 12 Media Days brought them more attention than they've ever had.
"It's kind of crazy. You're never really prepared for this. They tell you about it, but it's crazy," Blaize Foltz, TCU offensive lineman, said. "It's a little bit different than what we're normally used to."
Junior quarterback Casey Pachall, junior defensive end Stansly Maponga, senior Ross Forrest and senior offensive lineman Blaize Foltz represented the Horned Frogs during Big 12 Media days, which was the first media day for all four.
The players spoke with radio stations, national and local television stations and print media.
"It's a big stage, even just on the media level, it's a nice welcoming," Forrest said.
The Big 12 conference signed up more than 400 people in media credentials, Joni Lehmann, associate director of communications for the conference, said.
"I've never seen this many cameras in one place, and they're all for us," Forrest said.
From 9 a.m. until roughly 3 p.m. the players and Head Coach Gary Patterson rotated to each media outlet where they were asked different questions regarding next season and the team's mentality going into the new conference.
"At some points it's a little overwhelming because you go to different areas and stations with a ton of cameras on you," Pachall said. "But it's been kind of fun so far."
Foltz said that preparation from TCU's media staff going into the day played a big part in helping them stay at ease during their experience.
"The biggest thing they told us is that if there's anything that you aren't comfortable with, you don't have to answer," Foltz said.
More than anything, Forrest believes that the newfound attention from media day would really help strengthen the momentum going into the conference.
"It just goes to show how big of a deal this is. This is a major conference and we're apart of it. We get to compete with every one of these teams," Forrest said. "It's definitely motivation."
Pachall agreed.
"I think this will help a lot. I think there are a lot of people that will finally realize who we are," Pachall said. "A lot of people underestimate us."
