Sunday Dinner

We had my parents over for dinner tonight so I took the opportunity to try out a new appetizer.

I had a lot of cilantro left over from making my salsa yesterday and wanted to use it up. I made a Mexican hummus with "fresh" tortilla chips. I found a few ideas for the hummus on various websites and then played around with different ingredients and flavors as I always do - this is the recipe I created:

- Saute 1/2 of a chopped yellow onion and 4 cloves minced garlic in olive oil.
- Put 2 cans of drained garbanzo beans (chic peas) in a food processor. Add cooked onions, garlic, 2 cloves minced raw garlic, about 2 tablespoons of olive oil, a few shakes of red pepper flakes, approximately 1.5 teaspoons salt (just do it to taste - you can always add more later) and the juice of 1/2 of a lime. Blend until smooth.
- Put the hummus mixture in a bowl and stir in 2 chopped green onions, 1 chopped jalapeno, a few dashes of Tabasco, cayenne pepper, chili powder, and cumin.
- Once all of that is mixed together, stir in about 3 tablespoons of sour cream.
- Cover and chill for a few hours. Once you are ready to serve it, stir it again and adjust any of the seasonings. I topped mine with tomatoes, but you could also mix them in.

When I was making this I really wasn't sure about it - it tasted very sweet and sort of blah. But once it sat in the fridge for a few hours it was great!! We all loved it!

What goes better with a homemade dip? Homemade chips!! Well, semi-homemade (God, I sound like Sandra Lee) since I didn't make the tortilla shells, but that's something on my to-do list for this year. I took 8 soft tortilla shells and brushed them with olive oil. I sprinkled just a tiny bit of salt, cumin, chili powder, and onion powder on each one. Pile them up and slice like a pizza. Spread the pieces on a cookie sheet and bake on 400 for about 7 minutes. Be sure to watch them - once they get crispy they will really burn quickly. Mine turned out a beautiful golden brown.

For dinner Jon grilled some sirloin steaks that he had marinated in a Guinness Marinade for red meat that my sister brought home to us from her trip to Ireland. He put some salt, pepper, and onion powder on the steaks first and then let them relax in the marinade for a few hours before grilling them. Poor guy had to grill the steaks in the pouring rain, but even with the conditions he was able to make them look beautiful and taste great - look at those perfect grill marks!

I made my favorite side dish - garlic parmesan/romano risotto - and some roasted asparagus to go along with the steak.

My parents tried a dessert recipe that they found in the latest issue of Kraft's food and family magazine. It was a no-bake berry cheesecake with a graham cracker crust. It was really yummy and light which was perfect after a heavy meal.

It's going to be a busy week this week so I doubt I'll be trying anything new that I can post over the next few days, but you never know. Have a great week!

text: Grafton,city and port, northeastern New South Wales, eastern Australia, 42 mi . It is located 42 miles (68 km) from the mouth of the Clarence River (and its Pacific outport of Yamba), in the North Coast district. The site was first settled in 1838 when the area was exploited by cedar getters. The city was proclaimed in 1885 and increased in size in 1956 by merging the municipalities of Grafton and South Grafton (both named after for the Duke duke of Grafton) on opposite banks of the river (bridged in 1932). The district is a communications hub, lying at the junction of the Pacific and Gwydir highways, with air and rail links to Brisbane, Queensland (north), and Sydney (314 mi southwest), and is accessible from the sea by boats of moderate draft. Grafton is a gateway to several national parks in the vicinity, and tourism is important. The locale yields sugarcane, fruits, timber, corn (maize), dairy products, vegetables, oysters, and prawns. Industries include meat and dairy processing, brewing, and mining (coal, asbestos, limestone). Grafton is the seat of an Anglican bishop. The city is noted for its wide, tree-lined streets and for its annual Jacaranda Festival. Pop. (19812001) 1716,005562.

Skull resconstruction immediately following traumatic brain injury worsens brain damage

Immediate skull reconstruction following trauma that penetrates or creates an indentation in the skull can aggravate brain damage inflicted by the initial injury, a study by a University of South Florida research team reports. Using a rat model for moderate and severe traumatic brain injury, the researchers also showed that a delay of just two days in the surgical repair of skull defects resulted in significantly less brain swelling and damage.

The study was published March 16, 2012 in the online journal . While further investigation is needed, the findings have implications for the acute treatment of traumatic injury (TBI), considered the signature wound of soldiers who have served in Iraq and Afghanistan, said the study's principal investigator Cesar Borlongan, PhD, professor and vice chair of research at the USF Health Department of Neurosurgery and

"A double-edged sword," is how Borlongan describes the inflammation and subsequent swelling of brain tissue that occurs immediately following TBI.

When the brain is initially penetrated -- by a bullet, shrapnel, other debris, or even the force of blast waves, for instance -- inflammation helps recruit the body's own good (glial) cells to the damaged site to limit localized injury. For a short time, the inflammation-induced edema, or swelling of the brain, is beneficial to help relieve pressure within the skull. However, precipitates increases in intracranial pressure that perpetuate a vicious cycle leading to secondary cell injury and death.

Cranioplasty is an operation to repair malformations of the skull caused by TBI; the procedure may involve replacing a missing piece of the skull protecting the underlying brain and/or improving the appearance of the skull's surface. Current clinical practice emphasizes performing cranioplasty quickly upon initial to help reduce the likelihood of infection or other complications that may arise when the brain is exposed.

"Our preclinical study indicates that reconstructing the skull too early in the brain's natural healing process may interfere with critical therapeutic benefits of post-TBI," Dr. Borlongan said. "It's better to wait at least two days."

The USF researchers studied rats with moderate and severe TBI. Post-TBI, the animals were randomly assigned to skull bone flap replacement with or without bone wax (a sterile mixture to help control bleeding from bone surfaces); no skull reconstruction; or delayed skull reconstruction with bone wax alone, which was performed two days following TBI.

The brains of all the animals were analyzed in the laboratory five days after surgery. While immediate reconstruction provided aesthetic repair of the skull fracture, this early surgical procedure, with bone wax alone or with bone wax and skull bone flap, significantly increased cortical brain tissue damage in both moderate and severe animal models.

Overall, whether the rat model was moderate or severe TBI, delayed reconstruction limited the worsening of damage compared to immediate reconstruction. In fact, for moderate TBI, the extent of damage observed in the brains of rats that received delayed reconstruction was on a par with that in the animals getting no reconstruction. In those with severe , the tissue damage was significantly larger. The authors suggest this may mean a two-day delay, while more beneficial than immediate reconstruction, was not sufficient to counteract the intracranial pressure generated by severe TBI.

The researchers concluded that the timing of cranioplasty warrants further evaluation in both laboratory and clinical settings.

"Our results suggest that delaying cranioplasty until the TBI-induced cerebral swelling has subsided may reduce unwanted exacerbation of cortical damage associated with skull reconstruction," Borlongan said. "We need to carefully weigh the risk of infection that comes from leaving the brain somewhat exposed with the benefit of enhancing the brain's own repair of its cells."

"Finding a safe and effective cranioplasty regimen will require determining the optimal period of time when we let the brain repair itself and balancing that with when to best introduce a regimen of surgical repair and other potential therapies," said co-author Harry van Loveren, MD, the David W. Cahill endowed professor and chair of the USF Health Department of Neurosurgery and Brain Repair.

Chin implant surgery skyrockets in US

Cosmetic surgery to make the chin look more prominent has soared in popularity in the course of a year, making it the fastest growing trend among men and women, US plastic surgeons said on Monday.

Chin implants are particularly popular among those over 40, said the report by the American .

A total of 10,593 men had the operation done in 2011, a 76 percent increase over the prior year, and 10,087 women had the procedure, a 66 percent rise -- for a combined total of 71 percent.

"The chin and jawline are among the first areas to show signs of aging. People are considering chin augmentation as a way to restore their youthful look just like a facelift or eyelid surgery," said ASPS President Malcolm Roth.

"We also know that as more people see themselves on video chat technology, they may notice that their jawline is not as sharp as they want it to be. Chin implants can make a dramatic difference."

Chin implants were more popular than , which grew 49 percent from 2010 to 2011, and cheek implants which rose 47 percent, and far more than the old-fashioned facelift which saw a mere five percent increase, the data showed.

New York Darrick Antell, who said his clients have included many appearance-conscious of companies, said the chin is a symbolic trait to people in power.

"We know that CEOs tend to be tall, attractive, good-looking people. We now know that these people also tend to have a stronger chin," he said.

"As a result, people subconsciously associate a stronger chin with more authority, self-confidence and trustworthiness."

surgery was the most popular of all among Americans seeking a cosmetic boost in 2011, with 307,000 procedures, up four percent in a year, the plastic surgeons' group said.

New prenatal genetic test is much more powerful at detecting fetal abnormalities

February 9th, 2012 in Genetics /

A nationwide, federally funded study has found that testing a developing fetus' DNA through chromosomal microarray (CMA) provides more information about potential disorders than does the standard method of prenatal testing, which is to visually examine the chromosomes (karyotyping). The results of the 4,000-plus-participant clinical study are being presented at the 32nd annual meeting of the Society for Maternal-Fetal Medicine in Dallas on Feb. 9, 2012. The study was recently published in the American Journal of Obstetrics & Gynecology.

In women having routine prenatal diagnosis, CMA detected additional genetic abnormalities in about 1 out of every 70 fetal samples that had a normal karyotype. When a birth defect was imaged by ultrasound, CMA found additional important genetic in 6 percent of cases. These results suggest that CMA may soon replace karyotyping for prenatal testing, says Dr. Ronald Wapner, director of Reproductive Genetics at NewYork-Presbyterian Hospital/Columbia University Medical Center and vice chairman for research and professor of obstetrics and gynecology at Columbia University College of Physicians and Surgeons.

"Why would anyone want to continue to use the standard method, which gives only part of the answer?" says Dr. Wapner, who led the 34-center study funded by the Eunice Kennedy Shriver National Institute of Child Health and Human Development. "However, we will have to carefully transition this information into clinical practice — to educate physicians and patients, develop guidelines for its use, and learn how to best use it to improve care."

CMA is not routinely used for prenatal testing but has become the primary genetic test to evaluate newborns with birth defects, as well as infants and young children with developmental delays.

Dr. Wapner describes the observed difference in accuracy between the two tests this way: "With karyotyping, we can see only when pieces of the genome of about 5 million base pairs are missing from a chromosome. With CMA, we can see missing pieces of fewer than 100,000 base pairs."

CMA is based on a method that determines whether the right amount of genetic material is present at numerous locations in the fetus' genome.

This study was the first to examine the two methods in a blinded head-to-head comparison. Fetal samples were collected from the amniotic fluid or placenta of 4,450 participants. "These were women who were seeking for the usual reasons, which could be age, increased risk of inheritable disease, or a structural abnormality in the fetus," Dr. Wapner says.

Each participant's sample was split and sent, in a blinded fashion, to one of four laboratories that perform CMA — NewYork-Presbyterian Hospital/Columbia University Medical Center, Emory University, Baylor College of Medicine or Signature Genetics. The other portion of the sample was sent to Genzyme Genetics for standard karyotyping.

Results show that CMA and karyotyping were equally effective at identifying chromosomal abnormalities such as the duplicate chromosomes that cause Down syndrome and Trisomy 18. But CMA provided significantly more clinically relevant information in two situations.

"In 6 percent of the cases where there's a structural abnormality of the fetus but karyotyping is normal, CMA will provide additional significant information," Dr. Wapner says. "And in about 1.7 percent of cases where the procedure was done because of the mother's age or similar concerns and the were normal, CMA reveals additional information of concern."

Both tests offer information on conditions that can be life-threatening to a newborn baby or that can signal a possible health threat that might be treatable. "We are looking for the same thing in both tests," Dr. Wapner says. "But we find more abnormalities with CMA."

CMA can identify at least 150 known conditions and tell us exactly what the problem is and what it means for a child. Although karyotyping provides the same kind of information, CMA will likely provide more information on other potential disorders that might not otherwise be picked up such as intellectual disability or autism.

"It does not always mean that a child will necessarily develop these disorders, because many are due to multiple influences," Dr. Wapner says. "But it will help parents because they can be on the lookout for a particular disorder and have a treatment plan in place. I believe it is important to give parents as much information as they need about their child."

Icelandic volcano does indeed strand Laura Perry in Belgium

We are being patiently and kindly cared for by the International Red Cross.

We were told by our airline to check out of our hotel in Ghent last night and “get to the airport as quickly as possible” in case the airport opened this morning, since the check-in and customs lines were likely to be very long this morning if our plane actually flew; inter-city trains in Belgium do not run overnight, arriving from Ghent to Brussels airport at 7 am, and making it potentially only a three-hour window to get our boarding passes, pass through customs AND get to the gate – not a good idea.

Well, we arrived at the airport last night to … desolation. And the International Red Cross. Once we knew where to go in the terminal, they greeted us with large smiles and fresh water and food – much appreciated all the way around. And, cots. Now, cots wouldn’t normally seem wonderful… but I am thrilled! And they have been bringing in more all night – the Brussels Fire and Rescue, International Red Cross… everyone – it’s a steady stream of cots, food and people.

All due to the Eyjafjallajoekull volcano.

We’ll make it home when we can; our flight this morning has already been canceled and it looks as though the airport will be closed yet another day. But, so far it’s not too bad – and tempers are not frayed at all – it’s very much the “comme ci, comme ca” attitude many here adopt anyway. Not a bad way to lower the blood pressure, I must admit. Who is to say what tomorrow will bring, but we’ll take it in stride as best we can.

Best of luck there where it sounds as though the only pressing issues are allergies and temperatures. And classes!

See you as soon as possible! Boy, is this more than I had planned on! I mean… really? A volcano?

Your International Red Cross “refugee,”
Laura P.

Sounds pretty Belgian:-) The Prague airport is deserted and the people are sent away. It will be interesting to see what happens if it goes beyond a week. The 'fresh' foods (prepackaged and flown in) and flowers have run out here already. I foresee a collapse in Holland's tulip industry as the flights from the Dutch Antilles are unable to get the produce in. Rail which is underutilized and expensive may become a viable alternative for the transport of goods. Our local airfield is doing brisk business in propeller flights around Europe.You may have to look into a train to Portugal for a flight home:-(

The World Needs All Kinds of Minds

Like us on Facebook

If you saw the Golden Globes this year, then you probably saw Claire Danes accept the Best Actress award for her role as Temple Grandin (in the HBO movie Temple Grandin). It's a bio-pic about an autistic woman who uses her astounding ability to "think in pictures" and her unusual empathy (I mean that in the strictest sense of the word) for animals to change the cattle industry, designing better and more humane ways to herd and bathe and even slaughter animals. It's fascinating and inspiring, as is Temple herself -- who was at the Globes, and has been traveling the world doing talks and lectures of late, including this great TED talk. It's all about how her mind works, and how she can do things few other people can do -- she describes her own type of visual thinking as "Google for pictures" -- and goes on to discuss different types of the Asperger's/autism mind, and how they could better be served in schools, which she seems as keen on redesigning as she did cattle pens. (Insert schools-as-cattle-pens joke here.) Anyway, take a look at her talk, it's wonderful.

7 Freaky Animal Organs That Would Give You Superpowers

Image credit:

Like us on Facebook

If fuzzy action movie science worked in real life, becoming a brand-new superhero would—with a little help from the animal kingdom—just be a quick organ transplant away.

1. Slime Your Enemies with Special Hagfish Skin Glands.

Getting bitten by a shark would scare the feces out of most people, but it doesn’t even faze these cryptic scavengers. That’s because, within half a second of being attacked, hagfish secrete a cloud of thick, fibrous mucous that clogs the mouth and gills of any predator foolish enough to bother them.

2. Use Avian Air Sacs to Breathe at Superhuman Altitudes.

Breathe out. Congratulations, you’ve just wasted a load of perfectly good oxygen! Our feathered friends, meanwhile, don’t have this problem. When birds respire, air is pushed through a complicated series of air sacs which feed into the lungs, allowing them to collect and absorb oxygen far more effectively than we can. This system also allows them to merrily flutter about at heights that would suffocate even the toughest human mountain-climbers.

Sadly, however, birds have their own version of kryptonite, and its name is air pollution. At times, avians breathe a bit too efficiently for their own good, making them particularly vulnerable to atmospheric toxins.

3. Wood Frog Livers Could Help You Survive Being Frozen.

Each winter, as much as 60 percent of a wood frog’s body becomes completely frozen. Still more mind-boggling is the fact that their hearts actually stop beating during the colder months. How could any creature survive this? Copious quantities of glucose—which acts as a natural antifreeze—are mass-produced by the amphibian’s liver and sent into the veins to help prevent ice from forming there.

4. Taste Your Opponents from Several Yards Away with a Serpentine Vomeronasal Organ.

Have you ever wondered why snakes have forked tongues? Strange as it might sound, all animals (including us) leave trails of microscopic taste particles lingering in the air. Flicking serpent tongues have evolved to intercept them: Upon being retracted, both prongs are inserted into the mouth’s vomeronasal organ, where this data is analyzed. Tracking rodents over great distances, therefore, becomes child’s play.

5. Detect Electrical Fields with Platypus Snouts.

Wikimedia Commons

It’s hard to imagine how platypuses could get any weirder, what with their egg-laying, beaver tails, and poisonous feet. But even those duck-like mouths are stranger than you might expect. While hunting underwater, a platypus uses sensitive glands on its bill to help locate the minor electrical fields generated by moving invertebrates.

6. Get HD Vision with Mantis Shrimp Eyes.

You, like many creatures, have binocular vision, meaning that you perceive depth when both of your eyes work together to focus on the same object. Yet, helpful as they are, our visual organs can’t compete with this Pacific crustacean’s. For starters, mantis shrimps can use not one, not two, but three separate regions of their eyes to stare at a given subject, giving them amazing “tri-nocular” vision.

But that’s not all! They’re also able to see circularly-polarized light (the sort with which 3D films are made), an ability the vast majority of animals lack. In fact, scientists believe that the mantis shrimp’s spectacular eyesight could help us develop higher-definition CDs, DVDs, and holographic images.

7. Use a Bombardier Beetle’s Rear End to Fire Off a Blast of Scalding Liquid.

Those bad guys don’t stand a chance. Bombardier beetles greet would-be predators with a face-full of boiling, corrosive liquid that’s sprayed from their abdomens at a frightening speed. Amazingly, though the insects depend on specialized internal glands to produce this frightening reaction, they’re left completely unscathed afterwards.

While writing a query in the Data Explorer, I nearly always have to interrupt the process to query the VoteTypes, PostTypes, and / or PostHistoryTypes tables (so I can remember the Ids I need). I think it would be convenient to have access to the values in those tables directly from the UI (without having to do SELECT * FROM VoteTypes).

Could we have something like that?

I realize I could save the values from those tables somewhere on my computer, but they'd (possibly) get out-of-date periodically, and if new "____Types" tables are added, I'd have to manually update my local list.

I'm not a UI person, but here's a possible implementation: next to each of these "____Types" tables, add a link you can click that pops up a list of the values from that table (incredibly awesome* mock-up below):

These are not the Post History Types you're looking for

I'm not married to this specific implementation, anything reasonable would do. This feature-request just seemed too lazy without some kind of suggested solution =)

*Awesomeness may vary. We offer no actual guarantee (implied or explicit) of awesomeness regarding the mock-up.

I use this in another tab and would prefer to have the data in the UI too. –  Gilles Mar 22 '12 at 13:35

Yes, you can, actually.

I've already got a prototype implementation of this that I'll be tightening up this weekend and passing along to waffles for review.

Update: This is done now (provided there's no major issues with my implementation). I'll be pushing it out to my repository later tonight after make a few other changes.

Can the  HTML tag be allowed and properly styled?

Currently people wanting to write something small use either sup or sub which achieves a similar effect, but using it for small text is:

  • Semantically wrong
  • Too small
  • Only the most advanced users know of this "feature"

Small text is very useful in many circumstances on most (if not all) stack exchange websites. Here is a couple use cases! I put the text that would be  in italics instead.

  • Stack Overflow: If your C++ class has a private variable you cannot access it outside of the class or outside of friend classes/functions, that's the whole point of it!

    Note: if you really want to you can access it using pointer hacks, but the method to do that varies from compiler to compiler and it's technically undefined behavior.

  • Super User: If your computer doesn't boot try the following step: [...]

    Since you mentioned being an advanced user I skipped the most obvious reasons, such as the computer not being plugged in. But it never hurts to double check!

RobW commented on an answer below, referring to the new specification of . It's now referring to “the fine print” or “the small print”. That's even worse, if I understand correctly. –  Arjan Apr 6 '12 at 16:09
Eh, I think notes or asides are very useful, if handled correctly buy the author. They help users skim the most important information, and pass over small explanatory notes (or sometimes snarky comments). –  RobW Apr 6 '12 at 23:33
I agree notes can be useful, @Rob (except for snarky comments, which could be removed instead). But I doubt  is the best option. Earlier that was about presentation, not content. And today it seems the HTML5 recommendation refers to the Wikipedia definition of small print. If true, then using it doesn't feel right to me either. (Though of course it's NOT likely that some browsers/readers would suddenly add/speak some "Warning, alert, beware" for , nor that company firewalls would block pages that use it...) –  Arjan Apr 7 '12 at 8:18
That wikipedia article is odd, focusing on only the negative aspects of small print. From HTML5 Doctor: " is now for side comments, which are the inline equivalent of  — content which is not the main focus of the page." Side comments aren't inherently negative, whether they're legal or explanatory. There are plenty of S.O. users who use various tricks to size some text small to show that it's a side comment -- might as well give them a semantic element to do it with. –  RobW Apr 8 '12 at 17:54

@Kip: this is true. –  Shog9 Feb 20 '10 at 22:01
There’s a related argument for allowing <smallcaps> to get the CSS font-variant: small-caps; to trigger. It’s much more readable (and portable) when the CSS is used instead of something that emulates it, like subscripting capitals. The x-height of small caps is the same as that of the font itself, which in the case of super/subscript is not even true. –  tchrist Feb 24 '12 at 12:20
@Shog9, You can combine  with
,
 etc to get a bigger small size. –  Pacerier May 12 '14 at 8:50

I sometimes abuse  for the text of footnotes, which is not really needed for any other reason than to make a too long of an answer look shorter.

Hence, I'd prefer some Markdown's footnotes extension over , especially as the semantics of a footnote could (one day) allow for different rendering (like tooltips, or like including links to jump back to where the footnote was referenced, Wikipedia-style, for very long answers...).

Of course, using  for the footnote mark is not abusive, but for footnote text it is.

share|improve this answer
I'd just come to the conclusion that  doesn't seem to fix the issue of being semantically wrong (since  is a visual concept, not a semantic one) and that something along the lines of "note" or "footnote" would suit the examples much better... when I saw this answer! +1 –  Richard JP Le Guen Jan 22 '11 at 4:32
semantically  is used for smallprint, not small as in size. –  rob_james Nov 21 '12 at 16:55

If you can make it bigger

(to a degree)

then you certainly should

be allowed

to make it smaller

without resorting to semantically incorrect tagging and incorrect baselining!

share|improve this answer
More precisely: you're not able to make it bigger, you're able to use headers and such. Some day, or when accessed differently (screen readers, mobile, data dump, API), headings might be rendered totally different. Likewise, a  tag has little to do with content. –  Arjan Jan 23 '11 at 12:12
@Arjan: Not so. Behold the spec: w3.org/TR/html-markup/small.html –  RobW Apr 6 '12 at 15:53
Aha, you're right @RobW: "Although previous versions of HTML defined the small element only in presentational terms, the element has now been given the specific semantic purpose of representing those parts of documents that are often referred to as “the fine print” or “the small print”." Also: some time ago these sites switched to using HTML5. But still then: should we encourage using fine print? –  Arjan Apr 6 '12 at 16:01

First of all,  and  do not achieve the same effect, they are small but positioned different vertically as your post has rightly demonstrated.

I'm curious what would you need a small text for? Fine prints, disclaimers, foot notes? I don't see why these can't be displayed as normal sized text.

In anycase, I totally agree that using sup/sub for the sole purpose of making the text smaller is semantically incorrect.

share|improve this answer
Well, it's already used a lot.. See for example meta.stackexchange.com/questions/15635/… –  Andreas Bonini Feb 20 '10 at 1:37
Yes, I've seen many cases like that. I am totally fine with the "PS" line in normal size. I do that all the time. If your proposal is to allow small tag so people who insist on having smaller text will then use a semantically correct tag, I agree. Though I would rather they don't do it at all. :) –  o.k.w Feb 20 '10 at 1:43
@o.k.w: You certainly can display everything in the same font size. Heck, I made do with a single font size for years... But then my old Smith Corona wore out and I moved on. Font sizes are nice when you want to emphasize something (headings) or de-emphasize something (foot notes, disclaimers, things that most readers won't care about but which need to be included for the sake of completeness). –  Shog9 Feb 20 '10 at 1:54
smaller fonts for footnotes and disclaimers have been standard in print for a long time. (centuries probably.) it signals to the reader "hey, this is more boring than the main text, you don't need to read it unless you really care". –  Kip Feb 20 '10 at 21:56
With that reasoning we don't need big text either, or formatting of any kind. –  Andreas Bonini Feb 20 '10 at 23:46
I edited my question to provide use cases. –  Andreas Bonini Jul 24 '10 at 1:16

One use case for the  tag would be bibliographies at the bottom of posts for the scientific sites on the network. The references shouldn't dominate the post, so making the text for them a bit smaller is quite useful.

Using the  tag as a hack to make text smaller has other problems as it does affect more than the font size. It's interactions with numbered or unordered lists is problematic at best, and it leads to strange line spacing in some instances. It also needs to be applied on a per paragraph base, not just around a whole list of references, which is more work.

As for balphas concern that the tag would be misused, we already have the  and  tags and they are widely known, so anyone inclined to misuse small text is probably already doing it.

An example bibliography hacked together with  tags follows

share|improve this answer

I disagree. The only thing this is really used for is tongue-in-cheek emulation of the proverbial fine print, usually for something off-topic. That's okay on Meta, but discouraged on SO*, and it's used a lot less there. Allowing the "canonical" tag , I fear, would lead to many more people being smart about the layout of the site. Shudder.

*Do you know SO? That's a great website, and I have even less rep there than here!

share|improve this answer
I edited my question to provide some use cases. Are you still against this? –  Andreas Bonini Jul 24 '10 at 1:16
I usually use  at the bottom of blockquotes for attribution... –  badp Jan 24 '11 at 13:27
Is there a chance to revisit this decision? The  and  tags exist already an can be abused in this way, I don't think a  tag would be any more prone to abuse. I've added some arguments why the  and  are not ideal and a  tag is needed in my answer to this question (meta.stackexchange.com/a/123393/151385). –  Mad Scientist Jul 27 '12 at 9:17

WoW, WoW and WoW again. I'm sorry, but I felt like that's the only way I could express myself after hearing this album. Out of nowhere we suddenly have one of the finest epic doom metal bands and one of the best epic doom metal albums during the last couple of years.

I think it's shocking that such talented band is still unsigned, how can that be? I'm sure that if this was a black metal band then probably 50 labels had jumped over the band at once. Don't misunderstand me, I love black metal, but when I see such amazing band is still unsigned, then to me, this is another proof of how very underrated doom metal really is.

Mets to begin modifications to dimensions tomorrow

Joe DeMayo from St. Lucie to Flushing is currently on a tour of Citi Field, and just tweeted the following:

Below are the planned modifications to the outfield wall, which includes a uniform eight-foot blue wall around the perimeter of the outfield:

Michael Baron: I can’t wait to see these changes and, most importantly, I am very much looking forward to how they impact players such as David Wright and Jason Bay. The park needed to become “fairer” and I think in a lot of ways, the announced changes have exceed my expectations.

I am also thrilled they are finally making the walls blue. It identifies with the team, it’s history, and the overall brand more than the “soot” color. In fact, “soot” has never been a part of their color scheme whatsoever, and so I never really understood why they chose to go with that color to begin with, especially since the original artist rendering of Citi Field pictured a blue wall.

SA's stance on Syria queried

Sean Christie

Rumours are mounting that, as the known death toll in Syria rises, SA's representative is among those blocking a UN Security Council resolution.

Rumours are mounting that, as the known death toll in Syria rises towards 900, South Africa’s representative is among those blocking a United Nations Security Council resolution designed to try to halt the bloodshed. But the South Africans have denied this.

“No sane-thinking government parades its views before it has considered the matter on the table,” said Nomfanelo Kota, spokesperson for South Africa’s permanent mission to the UN.

It is understood that a draft resolution, which calls on the Syrian government “to exercise utmost restraint” and for other nations to “prevent the direct or indirect supply, sale or transfer to the Syrian authorities of arms and related material of all types”, is finally being studied by council members.

A critical UN source labelled it “seriously tame” and “lacking in all operational clauses”. The Guardian reports that Syria’s anti-government protesters are battling against growing frustration as the movement against President Bashar al-Assad’s regime, now in its third month, appears to have reached a stalemate.

Unlike in Egypt and Tunisia, where the leaders took their leave relatively swiftly and peacefully, protesters in Syria are realising that Assad is a harder nut to crack and is willing to kill and jail opponents. With 76 people killed at the weekend protesters are starting to reflect on what more they can do.

According to UN sources there is little hope that the British-designed resolution will attract the necessary nine votes with no veto. “It’s a very similar situation to Libya, with protesters facing tanks and people being killed on a daily basis,” said Philippe Bolopion, the Human Rights Watch director, who is in South Africa.

“The Security Council has been absolutely silent on Syria despite the deaths and we fear that behind the council’s closed doors South Africa is among the countries saying [to the United Kingdom, the United States and France], ‘you guys abused the mandate that we gave you to intervene on behalf of civilians in Libya—how do we know you don’t have a hidden agenda now?’ It’s almost as if it’s payback time,” Bolopion said.

South Africa’s resistance to British lobbying was corroborated by several other UN missions, with one source saying that the South African team was under instructions to oppose any resolution whatsoever on Syria. “I can confirm there has been lots of fishing to determine whether the Security Council would have an appetite for this and that has generated lots of loose talk in corridors,” said the source.

Clayson Monyela, the department of international relations and cooperation spokesperson, said the rumours about South Africa’s position “have all the markings of a pre-emptive strike, an attempt to manipulate our position through the media. We only received the draft yesterday. We are studying it and we will chart our course at a meeting later today.”

Monyela said the sponsors of the draft resolution “should be more worried about those countries that have indicated that they will veto the resolution. “For our part, we’ve issued a statement condemning the human rights abuses in Syria. Our position in regard to human rights abuses of this nature is a principled one, as seen in Libya.”

The source said: “It’s a complicated dynamic in the Security Council at the moment because Lebanon, which was so instrumental in pushing for robust resolutions on Libya, cannot afford to inflame its super-power Syrian neighbour by voting for any resolution at all.

“Russia is quite close to Syria as well and because of this problem the UK has had great difficulty winning the key support of the most proximate Security Council members, [any] one of which has a veto.” Discussion of the draft resolution on Syria begins on Friday.

Some of the Dolphins' young vets showing growth

As we all know, we shouldn't read too much into offseason practices. (We all remember Channing Crowder mocking the Jets by calling them the OTA champions.)

But with that caveat, it's worth noting that several of the Dolphins' young veterans did enough good work to make you feel encouraged heading into the start of training camp. Others, ahem, did not. Here are some thoughts on that topic and other Dolphins notes: http://miamiherald.typepad.com/sports-buzz/

I've posted five Dolphins columns here in the past 11 days and will post a couple more before the great Armando Salguero returns in a bit over a week.

Canes won't be home for NIT

ATLANTA -- The Miami Hurricanes are heading home from the ACC Tournament. But they won't be there long.

When the NIT begins next week and the Hurricanes (18-12) receive their invite, they'll be going on the road. According to UM Director of Basketball Operations Daren Cohen, the Canes will not be able to play home games because the BankUnited Center has been rented out for a series of latin concerts.

Talk about a bummer. You go 18-12 and likely will be one of the top seeds of the tournament, but you'll have to win three games on the road to get to New York for the semifinals.

Rehabilition therapy key to recovery after a stroke

3/20/2014, 9 a.m.
Days before having a stroke, Gwendolyn Jackson felt that something was wrong. “I started having rapid heartbeats,” said Jackson, 42, ...
Gwendolyn Jackson

Days before having a stroke, Gwendolyn Jackson felt that something was wrong.

“I started having rapid heartbeats,” said Jackson, 42, a freelance journalist. “I would get dizzy when I stood up. I also started having shortness of breath.”

But like many people, Jackson ignored the signs. In fact, a recent study by the University of Alabama showed that more than half of Americans experiencing stroke-like symptoms do not seek medical attention.

Because Jackson ignored the signs, she collapsed one day while using a public bathroom

“I was coherent, but all of a sudden, I couldn’t talk,” she said.

Fortunately, someone saw her on the bathroom floor and called 911.

Jackson was rushed to Jackson Memorial Hospital, where she was treated for a stroke.

Later she learned that her stroke stemmed from a clotting disorder.

“Doctors at Jackson removed the clot, and I am so grateful,” she said.

Jackson suffered some lasting effects from the stroke, which affected the left side of her brain that controls speech. She now stutters a bit and struggles to complete sentences. The stroke also caused Jackson to lose some function in her right arm and leg.

To help with her recovery, Jackson is receiving speech, recreational and physical therapy at Jackson Rehabilitation Hospital, where she works closely with a comprehensive team of therapists who are specially trained to rehabilitate patients who have suffered strokes and other traumatic brain injuries.

“We provide physical, cognitive and occupational and emotional therapy,” said Kelly Messett, a recreation therapist at Jackson Rehabilitation Hospital. “We teach our patients how to return to everyday activities so they can go home and be as independent as possible.”

Jackson says she has noticed significant progress in her rehabilitation.

“The therapists at Jackson Rehabilitation Hospital are the best,” she said. “They understand what the patients are going through. They have helped me a lot, and I am moving a lot better since I’ve come here.”

Now Jackson is fighting back, putting in the hard work that it takes to successfully restore her independence after a stroke.

Still, she hasn’t forgotten how she got here and is determined to educate others on the early warning signs that she let slip by – shortness of breath, rapid heartbeats, and dizziness. Her advice to others about strokes: “Don’t ignore the signs and symptoms. Don’t ignore your body when you think something is wrong. Seek medical help immediately.”
