DALLAS (CBS.MW) - Devon Energy reported fourth-quarter income close to seven times what it earned a year ago on Thursday, as benefits from the company's merger with Ocean, along with lower Canadian tax rates, boosted results.
Shares of Devon dove $2.88, or 5.1 percent, to close at $53.50. The company's natural-gas producer peers also finished lower, as March natural gas sunk by 25.4 cents, or 4.5 percent, to settle at $5.40 per million British thermal units on the New York Mercantile Exchange.
In the most recent quarter, Devon's reduction of the carrying value of its oil and gas properties decreased earnings by $111 million pretax. Excluding that and other items, Devon earned $1.62 a share from operations, according to Thomson First Call.
Analysts had been expecting earnings of $1.47 a share and revenue of $1.74 billion, on average.
"Record earnings allowed us to fund our entire $2.5 billion drilling and facilities budget while generating more than $1 billion for debt retirement," said Larry Nichols, chairman and CEO, in a press release.
For the year, Devon increased production 21 percent to a record 228 million barrels of oil equivalent. In addition to Ocean's assets, the increase includes growth from development projects in North America, West Africa and China. In 2004, the company said it expects first half production to fall but begin to grow again in the second half.
The company realized a 61 percent increase in the average price of natural gas to $4.51 per thousand cubic feet from $2.80 in 2002. The average oil price rose 18 percent to $25.63 a barrel, and the average realized price for natural gas liquids jumped 33 percent to $18.65 a barrel.
The average price realized by Devon for its 2003 natural gas production increased 61 percent to $4.51 per thousand cubic feet from $2.80 per thousand cubic feet in 2002. Devon's average realized price for oil increased 18 percent to $25.63 per barrel in 2003 compared with $21.71 per barrel in 2002. The company's average realized price for natural gas liquids increased 33 percent to $18.65 per barrel in 2003, compared with $14.05 per barrel in 2002.
"Unit costs and expenses, however, continue to rise and although reserve replacement exceeded 300 percent, finding and development costs average $10.82 per barrel of oil equivalent, and over $15 per barrel, excluding acquisitions," noted Fadel Gheit, an analyst at Oppenheimer. "For the last five years, Devon estimates its F&D cost at $8.25 per boe."
The company's cash flow before changes to its balance sheet grew 102 percent to $3.9 billion. Cash on hand was up to $1.3 billion. Devon said it would the cash to pay off long-term debt of $338 million in 2004 and $920 million in 2005.
Fadel Gheit, an analyst with Oppenheimer, noted that while the debt ratio declined to 41 percent from more than 65 percent a year ago, Devon still has the highest long-term debt among the independent producers. Devon added $1 billion to long-term debt from a year ago, bringing the amount to $7.9 billion.
Devon said its estimated proved oil and gas reserves were 2.09 billion barrels of oil equivalent at year-end, up 30 percent from 2002.

Has anyone else been getting compliments lately? It feels good. From people whom I don't know mistaking me for an Ironman athlete, another person telling me he wished he was in good shape like me as I stretched getting ready for a run. I told him one year ago I looked like him (he was unfit and overweight).
This change to a healthy high carb low fat vegan diet with an emphasis on fruit has done wonders. My wife's friend who hadn't seen me for a year was amazed and said I…Continue
I watched it alone, then I sat down with him to watch it and he fell asleep. When I say he's not motivated to make changes I'm not exaggerating. He's perfectly content taking a handful of prescriptions a day along with 2 types of insulin (and his blood sugar levels are still out of control).
The only other thing I can think of is to succeed at this and hope it inspires him. If not, I still have to do what's best for me and my children. I'm excited about this!
Thank you so much for taking the time to comment, I really appreciate it :)
Hi Gianni,
Thank you for your comments. I'm happy to say that I'm familiar with Dr. Barnard and I've already ordered his book, it should be here next week :) That being said, I can read all I want but unfortunately I can't stop him from putting the food into his mouth :( I'm not sure how else to motivate him when coming close to death isn't enough for him to make changes. The dr said if the blockage was a couple inches higher it would have been the "widow maker". He got a stent put in over the summer so it's open again, for now.
Thanks again :)
Hi Gianni ! Thanks for the comment and the link about the protein and the kidneys. I know the protein is bad for the kidneys and my doctor said because of my bad genetics I should stick to fruits vegetables and whole grains.
What I was worried was the potassium in the bananas actually.
Thanks a lot!!
Hi Gianni, I'm so glad you like my videos! And I'm also glad you think I don't have a Dutch accent haha! It must be a combination of me doing Cambridge English in high school, my mum being an English teacher and my boyfriend being from the UK!
Thanks a lot! Nice meeting you!

Will 'Game of Thrones' Run Out of Source Material? HBO 'Not Concerned'
LOS ANGELES — HBO execs aren't worried that their monster hit Game of Thrones could run out of source material.
With George R. R. Martin in the midst of writing The Winds of Winter, the sixth book in the series on which the show is based, the network's president of programming, Michael Lombardo, says they're "not concerned about it."
"At least with respect to next season, every step, every move is being choreographed very closely with [Martin]," he said during a panel at the Television Critics Association press tour, taking place in Los Angeles. "Certainly after next year, we will have to figure it out with George if his book's not finished by that point."
The recently concluded Season 4 of the show was largely based on the second half of A Storm of Swords, the third book in the series, A Song of Ice and Fire. But it also had material from the fourth and fifth books.
Fans have been pleading with Martin to finish the sixth book, even as rumors about a possible eighth book have emerged. "I need to write faster," Martin admitted to Mashable last year. More recently, he had a stronger message for some of his more impatient readers.
Lombardo and HBO Chairman Richard Plepler also brushed off questions about Martin's well-publicized desire for a movie conclusion to the series. "He's 100% focused on his books, the series, and has only held out the movie concept as something way down the road," Plepler.
"There's been no conversations," Lombardo added.
The end, in fact, is not something in their sights, they say. "Our line to George is if you keep writing, we'll keep making the show," Plepler said. For the record, showrunners David Benioff and Dan Weiss have previously said they aimed to make seven seasons.
Game of Thrones finished out Season 4 in June, and HBO picked up the series for Seasons 5 and 6 back in April.

Real Estate Transactions
A commercial real estate sale contract involves property that is being sold or purchased for business or investment purposes. The process of negotiating the terms of the sale, the drafting and the execution of commercial real estate sale contracts, if done properly, can help protect the buyer and seller down the road. Our law firm routinely handles real estate litigation matters, allowing us to factor in our experience when drafting real estate contracts which can help our clients avoid potential future litigation. Using a standard form contract does not always cover the specifics of a particular transaction. Having non-lawyers draft and prepare real estate documents, while perhaps economical, could be a costly decision down the road. We think through each contract as if it were being challenged after the closing. Our strategic and far-sighted defensive drafting approach helps protect our clients against future claims and provides them with a real advantage.
We also help with Probate Litigation matters related to management of an estate, wills, executors, administrator of an estate, and personal representatives related to this process.

A Brief History of CrossRidge
CrossRidge is an active adult community located on a 400-acre site that was the former Ridge Farm in Henrico County, Virginia, in Glen Allen just northwest of the City of Richmond. The last owners of Ridge Farm, the Cross family (hence the name CrossRidge), sold the property at the turn of the millennium to Courtney Development, Inc., a partnership of Atack Properties and Eagle Construction of Virginia. Courtney developed the CrossRidge concept, a community comprised of several villages or neighborhoods, all providing age-qualified housing under the Federal Housing For Older Persons Act (HOPA). In general, each household must have at least one resident 55 years of age or older, and no resident may be younger than 18 years of age.
Construction of the community began in 2001 and on March 12, 2002, the first home closing took place. At the end of 2013, CrossRidge was completely built out with 746 homes and nearly 1400 residents.
The Communities
CrossRidge has six communities or neighborhoods, each with their own particular style of home:
All residents are members of the Pavilion Club, a 17,000 sq ft recreational facility on 5 acres of land that acts as the center of social activity within the community. The Pavilion features two large meeting rooms, card and billiard rooms, an indoor heated pool and spa, a fitness center, an outdoor pool, and tennis/pickleball courts. The Pavilion has an Activity Staff and active Committees involved in planning and executing major social events. There are also a variety of active clubs such as the Travel Club, and a Women's Club. Beyond that, the Pavilion hosts a number of social, educational, arts, travel and fitness programs for our residents. In a typical month, there are more than 100 such events taking place at the Pavilion.
All homes feature attached two-car garages, at least two baths, and main-floor living, with a master bedroom and large master bath, great room, dining room, and kitchen on one floor. In Southall, second story units feature private elevators. Most homes have either a sun room or screened porch as well. Various models include one, two or three additional bedrooms, a loft, a formal living room and a casual eating space.
The community is gated with its main entrance at the intersection of Staples Mill Road and CrossRidge Glen Way. All property, including streets, within CrossRidge is privately owned by the homeowners or by one of the seven homeowner/unit owner associations operating in the community. These associations provide a low-maintenance environment for residents, including full landscape maintenance, exterior home maintenance and repair, snow removal, refuse collection, and road maintenance.

Replenish Your Body's Own Fountain Of Youth with RADIESSE®
What is RADIESSE?
RADIESSE is injectable filler that plumps the skin to smooth moderate to severe facial wrinkles and folds. RADIESSE also stimulates your body's natural collagen production process, providing longer lasting results.
How does it work?
Made of calcium-based microspheres suspended in a water-based gel, RADIESSE is injected under the skin, targeting smile lines, marionette lines, chin wrinkles, and the pre-jowl fold. Over time the body absorbs RADIESSE, leaving behind natural collagen, which helps maintain your skin's natural elasticity and moisture.
What makes it different?
RADIESSE is the only calcium-based dermal filler that has been shown to stimulate the body's natural collagen production. Clinical studies found that RADIESSE patients were more satisfied with their results than patients treated with other wrinkle fillers.
What can I expect before and after treatment?
Dr. Danish will discuss your goals and customize a course of treatment for you. Injections take about 20 minutes, and you may resume your normal activities right away. RADIESSE immediately restores volume to your skin, and the results last up to a year.
Restore your skin's youthful appearance with RADIESSE. Click here to schedule a consultation with Dr. Danish, and discover how RADIESSE can work for you.
Those interested in cosmetic facial surgery may visit Dr. Danish's Troy office for more information on financing or to learn more about the cost of her procedures. Consider applying for CareCredit® online for instant approval.

Money Matters Part III
Don't forget to check out the first two parts of our Money Matters series!
Money Matters - An Introduction
A little can go a looooong way - How SFAC went to Brazil and back for £250!
WHERE (Your money has an impact)
"Don't shoot!"
It's midnight in Kampala, Uganda and Mick, Walter and I have just been dropped off at our accommodation after ten hours of travel. But something is wrong, fifteen minutes of knocking, ringing and calling out hasn't got us anywhere. Mick decides it time to take things into his own hands and disappears briefly before suddenly reappearing halfway up the wall (it's higher than Walter is tall and that's saying something!). He scales it and disappears over the other side.
Walter and I continue pacing the perimeter and talking loudly hoping to attract the attention of the staff inside. That's when we hear Mick's voice:
"Don't shoot! Don't shoot!"
"It's me, Mick from Leeds in the UK. Dan booked rooms for us. From the UK – 5 nights. We've been here before!"
Soon the gate opened to reveal Mick grimacing half happy, half annoyed and accompanied by a small Ugandan man carrying a bow and arrow. Thankfully the arrow was now pointing towards the ground and not directly at us as it had been at Mick a few moments earlier.
"We're in! Finally!!!"
Since 2007 SFAC has been visiting Uganda and a variety of charities working with children. In 2010 SFAC began working with CALM AFRICA, a very small Ugandan charity. It was through this connection that Mick and I met (Remind me to tell you more about that another time – especially about how a flood, a hail storm and a truck nearly derailed our training with CALM one year!). The training started as CALM wanted to start a foster care programme.
"Foster care. That wont work here in Uganda!"
So said Joseph Luganda, a great friend of SFAC and staff member at CALM AFRICA.
"Yes it can and it is" said Mick.
It was a light bulb moment for James Ssiewankua, CALM's founder. 'I am a foster carer! I have fostered 17 children!' James had not realised that by looking after non-biologically related children in his care he had become a foster carer.
'Ok' said Joseph 'Lets do this!'.
The journey began and SFAC has since visited Uganda to support CALM and others such as Reunite and Alternative Care Initiatives (ACI) many times.
To make this happen SFAC has paid for our flights and accommodation. Why?
Well, the simple truth is these organisations' budgets are very small. Paying our flights and accommodation costs would take to big a chunk of money out of their budget to do the very things we are training them to do.
SFAC is proud of its decision to offer our services to any organisation that asks for our help, whatever their size and financial status. We see these organisations as critical to developing real change and supporting the growth of family-based care. They work within their own communities and have direct connections to the people who most need to hear about the best way to care for children at risk. While we recognise that paying standard UK rates for training and consultation is far beyond the capabilities of the vast majority of our partners, SFAC always asks for some form of contribution. We do this because we know that people tend to value things more highly when it has cost them something. These contributions are proportionate to each partner's budget.
On a typical visit to Uganda SFAC might cover accommodation and flight costs and waive all training and consultation fees. The contribution from CALM and other organisations varies from visit to visit but may include travel within country, room hire for training venues, some meals and sometimes even basic accommodation
The result of our work in Uganda: Reunite and CALM AFRICA work strongly together delivering foster care in Uganada. Joseph now spends his time running a foster care programme for CALM and trains others in Uganda about how they can do similar. ACI is working with the government and other organisations to support this work. Foster care is happening in Uganda and is spreading. The word is out and change is happening.
Without SFAC's willingness to bear the bulk of the costs involved in a visit this would not have happened. The money given to SFAC by our generous donors has helped to change the lives of many children in Uganda and enabled workers to access training and support that would not have been possible otherwise. With more money we can offer this to many other organisations, but your donations have made a huge difference already. You can be proud of your contribution.
Hopefully next time the beginning of our visit will be a little less dramatic. Although Uganda does have a habit of throwing some drama our way - ask Mick about falling down a path, Walter about his boda-boda ride or Dan about getting lost!
The really dramatic event is hearing what Joseph has to say now,
"Foster Care is Uganda's future!'

- • Not much happened today. I drove over to Joneses and spent the afternoon there. Later on, Mum and I watched "The Bank", it isn't the world's best acting, but a good storyline and enjoyable. It kept my interest throughout, and the twist at the end was a refreshing change from the average boringly predictable movie endings.

Today, I have a project I had been meaning to do for quite some time. I have a few binders in the house to keep some papers organized: #1) recipes, #2) house stuff (helpful tips, maintenance help, garden tips, etc), #3) an idea book (projects that I want to try out). I subscribe to a few magazines and even with my love for Pinterest, I still manage to dog-ear pages of the magazines that hold my interest. Once I'm done reading the magazine, I go back to the dog-eared pages and tear them out. I then file them in page protectors in the appropriate binder. I find it's a good system for me, so I'm sticking with it, at least for now.
This is what I started with.
Neutral Territory's post). I already had leftovers, so I didn't have to spend a dime and the dropcloth really goes with anything. I figured that I can always jazz it up with ribbon and tags, also.
Here's a quick tutorial on how I did it.
Supplies needed:
* Spray adhesive
* Painter's dropcloth (mine was from Home Depot)
* Scrapbook paper
* Plastic page protectors
* Label maker
1) Open your binder and lay it out fat like the picture below.
2) I then took some spray adhesive and sprayed it onto the front, back, and spine of the binder.
5) I then reorganized inside all of the binders by making my own dividers. Again, I didn't want to waste my good paper, so I just used plain colored paper for the dividers, then cut up the leftover paper from step 4 to make the tabs.
6) Using my Dymo label maker, I made labels for the tabs. Then, I just stapled the tabs onto the dividers. Super easy!
I haven't figured out exactly how I want to label the spines, so they got a temporary label using my old-school Dymo label maker. The binders look waaaay better than before though.
Here's a quick before & after....
Hope you all have a great weekend!

Little is known of his life; he was probably the son of a farmer who went on to become an apostle after meeting Jesus and served as a missionary in Phrygia, Mesopotamia, Armenia, Ethiopia and possibly even India. His preaching so offended the pagan idolators that the local ruler in Armenia ordered that he be flayed alive and then crucified; because of this he is almost always represented in works of art with a tanning knife and, sometimes even holding his own skin. He is the patron saint of binders, butchers, cobblers, tanners, shoemakers and trappers and protects against nervous and neurological disorders. Charles IV acquired part of his remains as a relic for St. Vitus's Cathedral.

Walnut Consumption Controlled Trial
Walnut Consumption Alters the Gastrointestinal Microbiota, Microbially Derived Secondary Bile Acids, and Health Markers in Healthy Adults: A Randomized Controlled Trial
Walnut consumption affected the composition and function of the human gastrointestinal microbiota and reduced microbially derived, pro-inflammatory secondary bile acids and LDL cholesterol suggesting that the influence on gut microbiota might partly be responsible for the health benefits ascribed to walnuts.

Everton FC boss David Moyes says he is inspired by predecessor Walter Smith as he bids to plug the huge financial gulf separating his team from Premier League elite.
Smith has led Rangers to two successive Scottish Premier League titles during a two-year spell, when the club's debt prevented him buying a player.
The Rangers manager, who will make way for Ally McCoist later this month, was able to bring players in at the start of this season but saw the size of his squad reduced further.
However, his team are pushing Celtic all the way for the title, sitting a point ahead having played a game more, despite being significantly outspent by their Old Firm rivals.
Given Rangers' budget dwarves that of all their other SPL rivals other than Celtic, Moyes - and Smith before him - faced more frustrating constraints with Everton unable to compete financially with the top English clubs.
But Moyes has still led Everton to four top-six finishes since replacing Smith at Goodison Park in March 2002.
"Managers have to work with no money sometimes," Moyes said. "To be a great manager doesn't mean to say that it's because you have money and you buy players.
"You also have to find ways of winning without money and make the best out your team, and I think that's what Walter has done."
Former Celtic defender Moyes, who was back in Glasgow for Sunday night's PFA Scotland awards dinner, added: "Walter has been someone I have always looked up to.
"When I played for the Scottish youth team a long time ago it was Andy Roxburgh who was the manager and Walter was the assistant. So I have sort of known him from those days.
"When I took the Everton job I had to make sure he was giving me my blessing, that he was happy with that.
"I have always found him a really good guy. He will be one of the great Scottish managers, that's for sure.
"Every time I see him I have to say: 'How many trophies have you won? They are coming out of your ears, there are so many.'
"And here's me standing here with none. One would be nice for me and he's got hundreds of them."
Everton sit seventh in the table following their 1-1 draw at Wigan on Saturday, a position many would argue is the best they can hope for given the financial might of the clubs above them.
Moyes' future has been the subject of much speculation this season after Everton endured a slow start to the campaign, and last week reports linked him with Aston Villa.
But the 48-year-old remains determined to find ways to overcome the financial disparities.
"It's been difficult because we don't have the cash to spend big," Moyes said.
"But that's what you have to do, you have to find other ways and try not to get yourself in a position where you think you have no chance.
"I have always hoped, and I think everyone would, that football is not just about money. Unfortunately it looks very much like that.
"But I think real football people would like to think that maybe there are some people who can do it out there with no money, and find some players from the lower leagues or non-league teams and can come in and have that freshness to football that I think we were all brought up with."

A special judicial election was held on May 17, 1870, to fill the seats on the re-organized New York Court of Appeals.
An Amendment to the New York Constitution, adopted in November 1869, re-organized the Court of Appeals. The first judges were to be elected at a special statewide election to take office on July 4, 1870. The new Court had a Chief Judge, elected as such,[1] and six associate judges. Each ticket could have only four candidates for associate judge so that at least two judges were elected by the minority party.
In April 1870, a new city charter for New York City was enacted by the New York State Legislature under instructions from William M. Tweed. The first municipal election under the new charter was scheduled for the same day, with the intention to swamp the strong upstate Republican vote with a heavy Democratic/Tammany vote in New York City.
Boss Tweed's plan worked, and all five Democratic candidates were elected, leaving only two judgeships to the Republican minority.
|Democratic ticket
|Republican ticket
|Chief Judge of the Court of Appeals
|Sanford E. Church
|Henry R. Selden
|Associate Judges of the Court of Appeals
|William F. Allen
|Charles J. Folger
|Martin Grover
|Charles Andrews
|Rufus W. Peckham, Sr.
|Charles Mason
|Charles A. Rapallo
|Robert S. Hale
Of the seven original judges elected in 1870, only two completed the 14-year term. Four died (Peckham in 1873, Grover in 1875, Allen in 1878, and Church in 1880) and Folger was first appointed, and then elected, Chief Judge, but resigned in 1881. Andrews was then appointed Chief Judge, but lost the election in 1882, and continued on the bench as an associate judge. Rapallo and Andrews were re-elected in 1884. Rapallo died during his second term in 1887. Andrews was elected Chief Judge in 1892, and retired at the end of 1897 after almost 28 years, the longest tenure of any judge on the New York Court of Appeals.
- ^ From 1847 to 1870, the office of Chief Judge was rotative by seniority among the judges.

|Adiabatic calorimeter
General Information
BATir - Building, Architecture & Town Planning, building : C, local : civil engineering lab level 1
Key words:
Calorimeter / Heat emission / Adiabatic condition
Main application:
The calorimetric data in fully adiabatic conditions can be measured with a specific device. The heat of hydration is measured on concrete specimens by means of an adiabatic calorimeter. This adiabatic calorimeter is composed of a copper cylindrical mould, thermo-regulated by a water circulation around the sample. An insulating air layer separates the sample and the mould. The temperature regulation is controlled by PT100 embedded in the care of the sample. A thermostatic bath (LAUDA) controls the temperature of the circulating fluid to ensure in real-time the equilibrium between the temperature of concrete and the temperature of the thermal regulation liquid. Moreover, the efficiency of the thermal exchange between the calorimeter and the concrete is improved by an insulation surrounding the device.

If you have been titled by the military police, NCIS or CID you know what a pain this can be. It shows up every time a background check is done and it seems to follow you everywhere. It does not take a lot to be titled, in fact, all that is needed is "credible information" that a person may have committed a crime. Unfortunately, however, even if a servicemember is never charged with the crime at a court martial and in the end cleared by his or her command, the titling does not go away. You can request that it be expunged from your records however by first submitting a request to your service's Crime Record Center (CRC). If the CRC decides to remove the titling, they will inform the National Crime Records Center as well so that they can do the same. Obviously, to get the titling removed, one needs to provide evidence to convince the record's centers to do so. I can help represent you in your request. I have the experience you need. To speak to an experienced court-martial and military defense attorney, call Bill Cassara at 706-860-5769 for a free consultation.

What is one thing that I love to do when I have to wait somewhere? I love playing games on my iphone! I find reading books while waiting is too distracting, and I love games that make me think, but at the same time relax as well. A few years ago, when my older kids were just learning how to spell words, we used to play Scrabble a lot. Now we have a toddler, and rarely play games like that any more because she would just destroy the game for us, and throw around all of the letters.
Now you can play a similar game, just on your phone. This makes it easier to play a game like that when you have a baby or a toddler like we do. You could get a game for yourself, your kids, and your friends. This new game I am talking about is called "Bubble Words – Letter Splash". It is available in AppStore and in Google Play.
This game is so simple to play – make 3-, 4-, 5-, 6-, etc letter words, and collect points, then level up, collect prizes and game upgrades! Do you like to play Candy Crush? Well, this is almost the same game except you are practicing making words, so it is quite a bit more educational, especially for kids learning how to spell words correctly.
This game has so many fun turns and twists! Each level has a number of challenges that you need to overcome to progress, and level up. You have to strive to make longer, more complex words in order to succeed in this game, and it is full of surprises!
I have played it a few times, and have leveled up to level 15 so far. My kids have played it as well, and loved it!
This game can be connected with Facebook, and then you can check and see how your friends are doing in it as well!
The whole game is set to be taking place underwater, with the cutest little sea creatures, and adventures! This game will be fun for both kids, and grown-ups. I love the cartoon style graphics, and the whole positive experience of this game – it is not overly difficult like some other games I have played, and is really not too frustrating to play – even if you are slow, you will not automatically lose because of your speed. The game gives you plenty of tips if you get stuck with the gameplay, and it also alerts you when you make up a correct word out of different letter combinations. I absolutely love this game!
Here are a few questions for you that you can answer in the comments: Do you often play games on your phone when you are waiting? What is your favorite game? How much do you usually play games on your phone for per day/week? Do your kids like to play word games? What is your favorite word game or word puzzle app?
Here is a video that I have made showing how you can play the game Bubble Words on your phone.

Hydroflight Athlete KRISTEN SMOYER – USA
Kristen 'The Destroyer' Smoyer
2015 XDubai Flyboard World Cup – 3rd Place
2015 North American Flyboard Championship – 3rd Place
You will be hard pressed to find anyone male or female who flies with more intensity than Kristen Smoyer. Her nickname 'The Destroyer' says it all really. An intense competitor, her passion for Hydroflight can be seen and felt both on and off the water. 2015 was a big year for Smoyer as she found the podium in both Pro Flyboarding events and has kept very busy flying in shows/demos around the world. Enjoy a look at some of Kristen's highlights from her 2015 XDubai Flyboard World Cup runs and then our exclusive interview with this former UMASS Minutewomen.
H2RO) Kristen, please share with us your background. Where you grew up and your sports background prior to hydroflight.
My Father was in the military so I really grew up all over: Michigan, Ohio, Alaska, New Hampshire, and Massachusetts. My parents always supported me as a young girl to participate in competitive swimming, basketball, soccer, baseball, and softball. I had a passion for competitive sports which followed me to college at UMASS where I played basketball, softball, and soccer.
H2RO) How did you get introduced to the world of Hydroflight Sports and what was your first few experiences flying like?
I was introduced to the sport by Nellie Kubalek, she took me flying the first time. Initially I thought it was fun but had no real interest in progressing. It wasn't until May 2014 when Mark Baxter from PowerFly Products approached me and asked if I was willing to compete at the North American Flyboard Championship. He believed in me and helped me train to compete in the event. I instantly fell in love with flying, competing against myself, and the challenge of progressing. Ben Merrell worked very closely with me on fundamentals before NAFBC and pushed me to fly higher, go faster, and go bigger.
H2RO) What is it about flying that has you so hooked and why do you believe your sport will be the next big thing?
There is something so powerful that brews inside me to constantly beat myself. Every time I train I push myself past my comfort zone. I have built a family in this sport that believe in me and have made such a huge impact on my life in and out of the water. That keeps me hooked. There is no other feeling then when you fall ten times trying the same trick and finally nail it. The sport has so many different aspects it is visually stunning to crowds, at times breathtaking, it is daring, there is a competitive nature, and always new developments. To me this sport is a big thing already I live in the flying world.
H2RO) Please introduce us to your favorite tricks and how each progressed from first attempt to what you're able to land now.
My favorite trick is the Superman 360 to backflip. The reason it is my favorite is because I know what it took to land the first one. I struggled with this trick, Gemma Weston can account for that! Slamming an injured chest several times, trying to catch my breath, and fighting my natural instinct to just move on to another trick. Every time I lean back on my set up I get butterflies in my stomach knowing I got this now. I can constantly tweak this trick to improve on it as well, it is definitely not something I have mastered but intend to keep trying.
H2RO) Every athlete needs a support system so talk to us about your training partners and sponsors both past and present who've played a significant role in your development.
Wow, I have received so much support in my development as a flier. Mark and Sabrina Baxter with Powerfly Products have helped me so much always being there for me, in the cold, rain, good times, and bad times. They have pushed me and given me the most powerful kind of support…they believe in me. Ben Merrell is my hydro-soulmate. He knows what drives me, how to push me, and encourages me. Callon Burns has been there since training for NAFBC reviewing video with me and walking me through step by step to help conquer different tricks. Ronnie "The Punisher" Feise is such a constant inspiration to me. He coached me through some really difficult times and no matter where I was he always had my back. Gemma Weston…. I can't say enough about the support she gave me. She is my best friend and there were many times I would be sitting at the dock frustrated with a day of training and the get off the phone with her wanting to throw my ski back in the water and own the trick that was beating me at the time. She watched hours upon hours of video with me and encouraged me constantly. My biggest fan and support is my six year old son Jaxon he is always so proud of me no matter what place I come in. He is my rock and motivation showing to him in life you have to work hard to get where you want to be. Ugo, P1 Superstock, Aqua X, and Jet Tribe have all stepped up in sponsoring me as an athlete and a person which drives me to bring on the intensity.
H2RO) Our sport is progressing so fast and currently we have a Pro Division, Veteran's Division (over 40 years old) and Ladies Division. The lines are certainly blurring quickly between these divisions as the flying gets better and better across the board. What do you think of these current divisions and do you think there are some ladies that might begin to think about shooting for the Pro podium?
Very simply put the ladies division and veterans division are "Pro" divisions. I think we all proved that. Enough said.
H2RO) You fly a lot of demonstrations and shows, do you have any crazy stories from those experiences that you can share? Any highlights?
I have had amazing experiences. Last year with Aqua X I had the opportunity to fly at the Sarasota Grand Prix with over 250,000 people, it was like no other experience. The craziest experience I have had is flying in a 2.5 ft deep pool at a boat show last year about 30 feet high to get the crowd going on the bridge. One of the most exciting demonstrations I did was with P1 Superstock in Tavares Florida where we hooked the BBTalkin connector set into the racing PA enabling me to communicate with the crowd.
H2RO) You flew as part of Team Powerfly at the 2015 XDubai Flyboard World Cup and at that event employed some new helmet communication technology. What are your thoughts on its place as a training tool and also its use in competitions?
BBtalkin has completely changed the way I fly, providing me with immediate instruction from teammates and coaches. I am hooked! The real time hands-free communication enhances the learning curve from beginner to even pro fliers. For demonstrations and shows it is a game changer especially with multiple fliers enabling communication between fliers and on shore. As for competition I used to listen to music but now listen to my teammate or coach for encouragement and support. Throughout the evolution of sports communication has boosted performance this includes racing, wind surfing, surfing, and snowboarding. The best part about it is frequently I connect through Bluetooth to my phone and can even answer calls or listen to my music while flying.
H2RO) Your good friend Gemma Weston was really impressive winning the Ladies Division in Dubai, what were you able to teach her during training and what were you able to learn from her at the same time?
I don't know if I would say I taught her anything. We both learned together, from each other, and from ourselves. She is not only an impressive flier but an absolutely phenomenal person. She taught me just as much off the water as on the water.
H2RO) You have experience flying many different products, can you share with us some of the differences you've noticed between each and any innovation you would like to see on new boards?
I have had the experience of flying many different devices. I love to fly, love to be in the air. Each product is a little different in size, design, and weight. There are plenty of good products out there. For break outs in training for fun I love flying the ZR Jet Pack it is an absolute blast. Still have not had a chance to try the old school hand wands "stabilizers" but looking forward to that one day. Personally I prefer the Pro Series board with independent feet, light weight, and plus it looks really cool which is always a plus.
H2RO) Finally, I always like when athletes share a flying tip with the readers so can you give us one beginner and one advanced tip that we can employ the next time we hit the water.
My advice is always the same for beginners and pros, know your skill set, don't try to attempt something outside your level of progression. If you fall get back up that's what separates you, it is your level of determination that can make you or break you "it's whats inside."
Truth! Thanks very much for your time Kristen and we hope 2016 is another year full of great flying experiences.
High five to Jaxon!

Excerpts From the National Education Goals Report
The following excerpts are from "The National Education Goals Report: Building a Nation of Learners," scheduled to be released this week by the National Education Goals Panel.
The report card is intended to provide baseline data on how the nation is progressing toward meeting the six national education goals adopted last year by the governors and the President. Future report cards will be released each September between now and the year 2000.
The section that follows includes current outcome measures for each of the six goals, as well as a description of where indicators are lacking and need to be developed.
Goal 1: Readiness for School
What we now know:
At present, there are no direct ways to measure the nation's progress toward achieving this goal. What we still need to know:
We need to know whether children are ready to learn when they start school in terms of their physical, emotional, social, and intellectual development. The National Education Goals Panel will be considering whether a national early-childhood assessment system would permit direct and accurate reporting on this goal in future reports.
Goal 2: High-School Completion
What we now know: High-school completion rates: . In 1990, 83 percent of 19- and 20- year-olds reported completing high school, most by earning a traditional high-school diploma. The high-school completion rate was 86 percent for persons 23 and 24 years old. High-school completion rates for white and black students were substantially higher than the rate for Hispanics.
Between 1975 and 1990, high school completion rates for 19- and 20-year-olds improved 12 percentage points for blacks, 2 percentage points for whites, and 2 percentage points overall. However, completion rates for Hispanics have remained consistently lower than the rates for other groups. Dropouts who returned to school: Nearly half of the 1980 sophomores who dropped out between 1980 and 1982 returned and completed high school by 1986. The rate of returning was highest for Asians/ Pacific Islanders. What we still need to know:
We need to know the numbers of students completing and dropping out of school in individual states. We also need more reliable data on completion and dropout rates for minority students, especially Hispanics. The National Education Goals Panel will be considering ways to collect this information so that additional state-level indicators can be included in future reports.
Goal 3: Achievement, Citizenship
What we now know: Competency in mathematics: . This report reveals for the first time how many American students can be considered competent in mathematics. Fewer than one out of every five students in grades 4, 8, and 12 has reached the national education goal of demonstrating competency in mathematics. . Mathematics competency among race/ethnic groups varied considerably in 1990. At 8th grade, for example, the proportions of students demonstrating competency ranged from 4 percent for blacks to 39 percent for Asians/Pacific Islanders. Advanced Placement results: . For every 1,000 11th and 12th graders enrolled in 1991, 70 Advanced Placement examinations were taken in the core subjects of English, mathematics, science, and history. Over 60 percent of the exams were graded at 3 or higher, which is generally high enough to make students eligible for college credit. The numbers of examinations taken in English and history were substantially higher than the numbers taken in mathematics and science.
- Over the past 10 years, the number of Advanced Placement examinations taken by 11th and 12th graders has sharply increased in the core subjects of English, mathematics, science, and history. Increases have been greatest in mathematics and science.
- Between 1986 and 1991, the number of Advanced Placement examinations taken in the core subjects increased 51 percent. Rates of increase were greatest among minority students. Citizenship: . In 1988, nearly all 12th graders had a basic knowledge of civics, such as elections, laws, and constitutional rights. However, only about half understood specific government structures and functions, such as separation of powers, and only 6 percent had a detailed knowledge of institutions of government, such as the Cabinet and the judiciary.
In 1988, slightly less than half of the nation's 18- to 20-year-olds were registered to vote, compared to 70 percent of all U.S. citizens 18 years or older.
What we still need to know: We still need to know the competency of students in grades 4, 8, and 12 in the five core subjects, as measured against world-class standards of performance. Only then can the nation and individual states determine where educational efforts are falling short and where student performance must improve.
To address this issue, the panel worked with the Congress to establish the National Council on Education Standards and Testing. Over the next year, the panel will be reviewing the council's recommendations for developing world-class standards and a system of national examinations for determining whether these standards are being met.
Goal 4: Science and Mathematics What we now know: Science achievement: . In 1988, American students scored substantially lower than students in three out of four other countries on an international science assessment given to 13-year-olds.
- The U.S. ranked among the lowest performing countries in average science achievement on an international assessment which tested 14-year-olds in 17 countries between 1983 and 1986. In particular. U.S. 14-year-olds performed significantly lower than students in 10 countries, significantly higher than students in 1, and did not perform significantly different from students in 5. Mathematics achievement: . In 1988, American 13-year-olds scored lowest among students in five nations on an international mathematics test.
- Between 1980 and 1982, students from 18 countries participated in an international mathematics assessment of 13-year-olds. Students from 12 countries scored significantly higher than American students in one or more areas of mathematics, while American students scored significantly higher than students from five countries in one or more areas. What we still need to know: We need more recent international comparisons of science and mathematics achievement. Several new surveys will be conducted before the year 2000 that will compare a large number of countries and include students at a range of grade levels. The National Education Goals Panel will report results from these new assessments in future reports.
It was also recommended to the panel that questions on how science and mathematics are taught be added to upcoming national and international surveys and assessments. The National Education Goals Panel will examine these surveys and explore ways to ensure that the highest quality information is collected for inclusion in future reports.
Goal 5: Adult Literacy
What we now know: Adult literacy: . In 1985, most young adults ages 21 to 25 had mastered basic literacy skills such as locating facts from newspaper articles or filling out bank-deposit slips. However, substantial numbers had not mastered more complex tasks such as interpreting the main argument from a lengthy newspaper column or using a catalog to calculate the cost of several items and fill out an order form. Whites were more likely than blacks or Hispanics to have mastered increasingly difficult literacy tasks.
- A 1990 study of employment-service clients (unemployment-insurance applicants and those looking for jobs) and participants in a federally sponsored-job-training program revealed that patterns of literacy ability were similar to those of young adults in the 1985 study. What we still need to know: We need better and more recent information on adult literacy. In 1993, state and national results from the most comprehensive adult- literacy survey to date will be published in the National Education Goals Panel's annual report.
In addition, we need to know how the knowledge, skills, and attitudes of American workers compare internationally in order to determine whether the American workforce will be competitive in a global economy. Finally, we need to know what our college students have learned from their college experience. The National Education Goals Panel will be considering the feasibility of developing a new international assessment of workforce skills and a new national assessment of college graduates' skills and knowledge in order to meet these needs.
Goal 6: Safe, Drug-Free Schools
What we now know: At-school drug use:
- About 3 out of 10 high-school seniors reported in 1989 that alcohol and marijuana were easy to obtain in their schools. However, at-school drug use is not widespread. In 1990, 7 percent of 12th graders reported using alcohol at school, 6 percent reported using marijuana, and 1 percent reported using cocaine.
- Use of alcohol, marijuana, and cocaine at school has dropped sharply since 1980.
Victimization and vandalism:
- Substantial numbers of 12th graders are victims of violent acts at school. During 1990, 25 percent were threatened and 14 percent were injured without a weapon being used, while 13 percent were threatened and 6 percent were injured with weapons. In addition, 42 percent reported their property stolen, and 29 percent reported their property vandalized.
- Black students are much more likely than white or Hispanic students to be victims of violent acts at school involving weapons.
- During the past 10 years, threats and injuries to students and theft and vandalism of student property have been on the rise.
- Most public-school teachers feel that their schools are safe during the day, but teachers in cities are more likely than teachers in other areas to feel unsafe in their buildings after school hours.
- Nearly one out of five public-school teachers reported being verbally abused by students during the previous month. Eight percent reported being physically threatened, while 2 percent reported being physically attacked during the previous year. Teachers in cities are more likely than teachers in other areas to be victims of verbal abuse and threats. What we still need to know: We still need comparable state-level information on a number of these indicators, such as the amount of student drug use in school, the availability of drugs in schools, levels of student truancy and tardiness, and the incidence of school crime. The National Education Goals Panel will be considering ways to collect information of this type so that additional state-level indicators can be included in future reports.

Skip to 0 minutes and 9 seconds SPEAKER 1: In developing creative players, there is a need to empower young players. By empowerment we mean to give them the skills and knowledge to succeed, to feel valued, and to develop a sense of purpose and confidence in their own ability. In the following videos from Dr. Carla Luguetti from Santa Cecilia University, Santos, Brazil, talks about her research on empowering young children in sport.
Skip to 0 minutes and 31 seconds CARLA LUGUETTI: My name is Carla Luguetti, and I am Santa Cecilia University of Brazil. I am a researcher in spore pedagogy area, and I have been studying the importance of giving players ownership in order to empower them. When we ask coaches about how they develop creativity in young players, they'd describe [INAUDIBLE] sided games, problem-solving, and other ideas. However, by giving players voice, we also develop creativity and empowerment. In my line of research, we work in socially vulnerable areas, poor areas. And through football, we help young players to name the problems they face, critique, and transform or negotiate those barriers. For example, avoiding a life of crime was the main problem young people, young players, faced in my last research.
Skip to 1 minute and 32 seconds By listening and responding to young players, we developed a leadership programme where they learn life skills. In that sense, creativity is also related to listen and respond to young people's voice. If you think about football, Brazil is considered the home of creativity. Neymar, [INAUDIBLE], [? Hivaldu, ?] to [? Hamada, ?] Pele, and many others. And how do we develop creativity in young players?
Skip to 2 minutes and 8 seconds SPEAKER 3: So what we are going to do now is a typical game that they bring from their culture in order for us to practise. Every very famous or every celebrity soccer player, they usually explain that those games they play when they're children are very important in their career. So we try to take advantage of those cultural games as much as much as possible. What we are going to do now, we're going to playing defence versus attack, in which the goals they score have different points or different values according to the aim they have. So if they kick the ball and the goalkeeper defends it, but the ball rebounds and the attack scores, it's one point.
Skip to 2 minutes and 54 seconds If the ball hits the post, it's five points. If the ball hits the high post, it's 10 points. So this is called [? hibachi ?] in Portuguese.
Skip to 3 minutes and 2 seconds SPEAKER 1: Evidence suggests that giving players opportunities to design their own games or their own practises can effectively enhance both game knowledge and social learning. Asking them to focus on specific components of game play such as skills and strategy can empower them towards a deeper understanding of these components. While we are often guided by performance, player design games are central to promoting active, social, and creative environments while empowering individuals towards sustained engagement.
Empowering young players
In developing creative players, there is a need to empower young players.
By empowerment, we mean to give them the skills and knowledge to succeed, to feel valued and develop a sense of purpose and confidence in their own ability.
In this video, Dr Carla Luguetti from Santa Cecília University, Santos discusses her research which focusses on the importance of empowering players for sustained engagement.

Animal Friends Buy K-Laser for Dorset Practice
Animal Friends insurance buys £16,500 laser treatment machine to help treat multiple conditions in scores of pets in the region.
Elaine Fairfax, the Founder and MD of Animal Friends Insurance, the UK's third largest pet insurance company, has sponsored her company's £16,500 purchase of a K Laser machine for Dorset based Friars Moor Veterinary Clinic.
Laser treatment, used for some time on humans, is now being used to treat a wide range of conditions in pets from fractures and sprains to arthritis and hip dysplasia. It can also be used post-surgery on wounds and for procedures such as neutering and spaying to encourage faster healing. It works by running a laser over the affected area on the animal's body, stimulating cells, increasing circulation and promoting healing leading to reduction in swelling, inflammation, stiffness and pain.
The treatment has little to no sensation for the pets who can only usually feel warmth, meaning they are able to relax during the procedure. An added benefit is that pet owners can also be present while the procedure is administered.
Elaine said: "I could see that this machine represented a vital advance in treatment of pets for all manner of conditions. My own 17 ½ year old cat was treated and we immediately saw a big improvement to his arthritis. Two of my friends also saw notable improvements in their pets. This is something I wanted our policyholders in our region to benefit from and our association with Friars Moor will further this. Policyholders from a wide area will now be able to be referred to Friars Moor for cost effective and pain free treatment that clearly gives remarkable results. At Animal Friends we are always trying to find ways to make the treatment and claims processes easier for our customers and for the practices we regularly deal with."
Anthony Wilkinson (BVSc MSc MRCVS), a Director of the Friars Moor Veterinary Clinic said: "Each week I see there are more animals booked in for K Laser treatment. The nursing staff are all excited about the K Laser and we hope that it will change the way they interact with our clients. It is an impressive piece of equipment with impressive clinical data to back it. We are very grateful to Elaine for introducing us to the K Laser and then kindly purchasing it for us. It was very kind of her."

One of the roles available to certain hypers in Hyper Universe.
Overiew[edit | edit source]
Striker skillsets are to primarily bolster their primary attack. They are ranged, backline characters that function similar to Assassins by providing higher sustained damage rather than burst. They have great basic attack damage which is dispersed across their targets. Their skills vary from abilities allowing them to escape or pursue targets, enhance their attack, inhibit enemy escape or pursuit. To balance against their high damage and overall safety, strikers have low hp and defense.
All Strikers have a natural 10% Defense Bypass.
**NOTE**[edit | edit source]
Ryta does not completely play as standard striker. Her skillset and playstyle aligns with Assassin in the majority of categories save for Crowd Control. Consider that role page when assessing her playstyle overview.

A friend of mine thought I didn't like tattoos on guys, but really it doesn't bother me much unless they've just got them all over or something. I've wondered if I could get one myself but the real issue is what would I get. I have no idea what I would want to get permanently tattooed on myself.
What do you think would be a good tattoo for me?

One of the things Warner Bros brought to San Diego Comic-Con this past summer was the first Wonder Woman trailer. At the time, the Amazonian heroine's solo movie was a little less than a year away from release, but the studio offered enough footage to get many people, longtime fans and casual moviegoers alike, excited for its release. Only three months have passed since that first trailer premiered, but now there's word that another trailer may be on the way that could arrive as early as next week.
The folks at Trailer Track noticed that Consumer Protection BC have classified a new Wonder Woman trailer, which suggests it could premiere alongside Doctor Strange when it hits U.S. theaters on November 4. Although, given how trailer releases usually go in the age of the internet and social media, don't be surprised if it came out a day or two early. As noted in the article, some have speculated a new preview would be saved for Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them, another Warner Bros movie. Studio synergy, after all. However, Doctor Strange is a fellow superhero flick, so that would another prime opportunity to show off a new look at Wonder Woman. Obviously we can't say with absolute certainty whether the new trailer will be attached to Doctor Strange, but since it's been classified, there's no doubt it's coming soon.
Wonder Woman debuted earlier this year in Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice as a mysterious individual who crossed paths with Bruce Wayne while he was investigating Lex Luthor. Although she claimed to have turned her back on humanity years ago, she later donned her battle gear and jumped into the fight against Doomsday. Following Superman's death, Diana will help Bruce find other metahumans to protect the world with them in Justice League.
Before that happens, Wonder Woman will wind the clock back 100 years, when Gal Gadot's Diana was still living on Themyscira. After Chris Pine's Steve Trevor washes up on the island's shore, Diana will leave her home and venture to the outside world with him. As World War I rages, she'll not only have to deal with otherworldly threats lurking in the shadows, but she'll also see humanity at one its darkest points. The rest of the main cast includes Connie Nielsen as Hippolyta, Robin Wright as Antiope, Lucy Davis as Etta Candy, Lisa Loven Kongsli as Menalippe, Danny Huston, Elena Anaya, Saïd Taghmaoui, Ewen Bremner and David Thewlis
If it's been a while since you watched the first Wonder Woman trailer, check it out below.
Wonder Woman hits theaters on June 2, 2017, but rest assured, we'll keep you apprised of any updates regarding the movie's next trailer.
