		<description>It sounds like punishment for the fighting really aren't having an effect... Sounds a little hokey but maybe they need something they are forced/convinced to work together on until they figure each other out. If there's an age gap that can be tough, but a building project, hobby, class, or other "team building" activity can work just as well on kids as it does with adults. 

Most sibling rivalry is over jealousy, especially in split/mixed families which are common these days. Is she not getting enough time with the "cool parent"? Is he being babied by the more full-time parent rather than being taught how to properly express himself? Look at your reactions to the behavior and make sure they don't match the behavior itself. 

Let me know if you want to get into more specifics. With a 13 yr old stepdaughter, and 3 of my own from my divorce, I've seen a lot of this behavior and worked the bigger kinks out so far.</description>

		<description>I'm definitely no seasoned parent, but I was a teacher and took several "developmental" classes. My first question would probably be what consistency there is since he's living in two different homes? Now, I'm not implying that one is right and one is wrong, you (and your ex) just have to be consistent with whatever way you decide to go and do it from now on, every time. I don't even know how old Dom is (I seem to remember 5?) so I also think it's important to comment on his behavior before it gets out of control. It's easy to let little "snarky" comments slide and build up to the talking back you mentioned. Either way, I think it's something you need to address at the moment, every time, big or small, and make sure that he understands why it was inappropriate, or rude, or whatever. Getting him to understand not only that it's wrong, but why it's wrong, is a big thing. 

So to sum it up, I think two important things are: make sure he understands why his behavior is inappropriate, and you and your ex have to be consistent in punishments and don't let the little things slide. That was a big thing in teaching, if you say "no" 99 times, but "yes" once...they'll have it the back of their mind that if they push hard enough, or do it enough times, there's always that one time you let up. 

Hoped that help some :/</description>

		<title>Comment on No Flicker All CSS Image Hover State Trick by Martin Kulakowski</title>

		<description>To simplify it even more, if the height of both "image states"  is equal, you can simply do background-position: top; and background-position: bottom; for :hover state. I've been doing this for a while, you can also add an additional class for .active and add another "rollover" state to the image set. Then you can use top, middle, bottom. Used it in the main nav here: http://www.ylcc.com</description>

I'll join you (and others???) in a hike down (and up) the Grand Canyon next January.

		<description>People there actually get work done? I thought all they do is play guitar hero? ;)

I love this line though: "You should be here, too. (Why aren't you?)" -  because sir, I am in my own office! lol :)

But kudos to the other guys on sharing the office space with other related companies, that should be a good thing!

I want to visit, if only to see Sunny's amazing beard again, since I haven't seen that mofo in forever! :)

P.S. Please block ijustine's website whenever Chuck visits! I keed I keed... :D</description>
