I had to wait around at the entrance for the quest giver to show up. He did and was very easy to follow with a 90. Took 10 mins as stated previously.

Very easy to get this pet! Just complete the quest by talking to Skywing and escorting him, which takes less than 10 minutes. Return the quest to Shatt and you have him!

Head to Veil Shalas and close to the mountain you will see a bird called Skywing with a ! over his/her head. Take the quest and you will get the pet when your done.

Just got this with a level 67 retribution Paladin. It was pretty easy, Skywing is not a bad fighter, as long as you're willing to take some damage for him, and he heals super quickly. He will probably go back up to full health in between fights.

I've also noticed his sounds seem different - he wolf whistles and seems to 'chatter', but I still can't make out what, if anything, he's saying.

Hmm... Need some help here. I found Skywing and he has no quest to give me. He is green, so probably not a rep thing. Anyone have any ideas? I tried googling, but I haven't found any prequests that I have to do either.

This quest can be easy for any class. Just do what I did and clear out part of the path (If not all of it!) before the quest. This made it much easier for my level 68 night elf hunter and I hope it does the same for all those troubled players!

This is THE pet that started it off for me. Until I received Miniwing, I really didn't give minipets much thought. I think it was the combo of having attempted the quest more times then I can count before I succeeded, the feeling of accomplishment when I felt when I did, and the complete surprise when I received him (I didn't know a pet was the loot). I may not pull him out much anymore and he may not be the first pet I ever had, but Miniwing holds that special place in this Gnome Mage's heart.

Skywing,the questgiver, is found patrolling the southeastern part of the fringe of the Bone Wastes. Its not an incredibly difficult quest, but I think someone at the level of the mobs may want to bring a friend if they think they need help

it seems that randomly, my iphone will return to an un-activated state after reboot, or switching off the phone!! i can still use ipod etc. features, just the usual "inactive sim, connect to itunes" message
i'm running 1.0.2 with a UK orange sim, unlocked by IPSF and activate & jailbroke using iNdependence. at first i thought it was a dodgy app i had on so i've trial and error taking apps off, but its still seems just as random!
for example i could restart the phone and it will be fine, literally restart the phone immediately again, and it will require activating with iNdependence?
once i noticed this it really started annoying me why it does this?! its not a big problem, but if for some reason i need to restart the phone while i'm away and i don't have my laptop, i could be screwed without a phone!
has anyone else had this problem, or noticed this!?
note, just as i've finished typing this, i sort of noticed if after teh reboot, i start flying through the menus to punch in my sim pin code, it then appears not activated, where as if i turn it on, leave it a few seconds then do it, its been ok 3 times on the bounce!? coincidence??
i heard something about problems with IPSF and having a pin on your sim, if this anything to do with it? sorry for the scatty post lol...

Clayton State Shows Strength, Shutout Saints 4-0
Contact: Joey Daniels, firstname.lastname@example.com
MORROW, GA - North Georgia ran into a buzz saw that was Clayton State on Wednesday night, falling 4-0 in Peach Belt Conference action playing in their fourth league game of the season.
Clayton State (7-2, 2-1 PBC) would add two more goals in the first half, coming back-to-back in the 26th and 27th minutes. A penalty kick goal by Janny Rivera in the 27th sent the Lakers into the half with a convincing 3-0 lead.
Rade Tanaskovic kept busy all night finishing with five saves and allowing four goals. The loss drops Tanaskovic's record to .500 (4-4-1) on the year. The defense was without Zachry Samples, who was given a red card in the Saints' previous game at Montevallo.
The Saints will look to bounce back after suffering back-to-back losses in conference on Saturday, when they travel to the campus of Columbus State to play Lincoln Memorial in non-conference action. Kickoff is set for 2:00 PM.

text: On Fireside Chats, Mike and Sarah talk about the possibilities for left publications when print is declining, then discuss the concept of "precarity" in work, and what it means for the future of organized labor. Sarah argues that recent college graduates, with unpaid internships and large student debt, are more like indentured servants than you might think. Then Sarah describes the new frontiers of progressive politics, and she and Mike talk about how feminism's relationship to economics has changed over the last 40 years. Finally, Sarah attacks Sex and the City feminism, and gives a more substantial alternative.

Women Who Run with the Wolves (original 1992; edition 1996)
by Clarissa Pinkola Phd Estes
Work details
Women Who Run With the Wolves: Myths and Stories of the Wild Woman Archetype by Clarissa Pinkola Estés (1992)
No current Talk conversations about this book.
Sort of embarrassed to admit that I am reading this, but...
I am finding it useful, and 12~ years later (from when I was first given a copy) I can finally read it. I suppose it helps to have been through a bit of life, to be able to grasp the archetypes well.
Works well with Carolyn Myss's Sacred Contracts, and her archetypes.
Es un libro que no sólo nos ayuda a las mujeres a sentirnos identificadas con los diferentes problemas que atrapan nuestra mente sino que además nos sirve para superarlos por medio de cuentos.
A book that I have returned to many times over the last decade or more, Estes analyses of women in folklore and mythology resonate with me deeply. Women Who Run with the Wolves is a book that can be read over and over, and some new insight - about oneself or our relationship with our environment - will be gained. A beautiful marriage of psychology and feminist spirituality, this is one of my most cherished reads.
I started this book with high hopes - it had been recommended to me by someone I find very interesting and who lives her life authentically . However, I soon gave up! What is it about?
While the author does give good insights onto women's issues, her use of fairy tales to do so is weak at best. She changes them to suit her own interpretation, often - and quite worrisomely, given the message she claims to want to give - placing more blame on the woman than the original fairy tale did. Compare, for instance, the original "Handless Maiden" and Marie Louise von Franz's interpretation of it, to Pinkola Estes' modified version.
I had a very hard time taking the "interpretation" of modified fairy tales seriously, and wish that Pinkola Estes had given more weight to her own individual thoughts, rather than trying to validate them through fairy tales that often say something quite different from what she tries to say.

Amazon.com Product Description (ISBN 0345409876, Mass Market Paperback)UPDATED, WITH NEW MATERIAL BY THE AUTHOR"WOMEN WHO RUN WITH THE WOLVES isn't just another book. It is a gift of profound insight, wisdom, and love. An oracle from one who knows."--Alice WalkerWithin every woman there lives a powerful force, filled with good instincts, passionate creativity, and ageless knowing. She is the Wild Woman, who represents the instinctual nature of women. But she is an endangered species. In WOMEN WHO RUN WITH THE WOLVES, Dr. Estés unfolds rich intercultural myths, fairy tales, and stories, many from her own family, in order to help women reconnect with the fierce, healthy, visionary attributes of this instinctual nature. Through the stories and commentaries in this remarkable book, we retrieve, examine, love, and understand the Wild Woman and hold her against our deep psyches as one who is both magic and medicine. Dr. Estés has created a new lexicon for describing the female psyche. Fertile and life-giving, it is a psychology of women in the truest sense, a knowing of the soul."This volume reminds us that we are nature for all our sophistication, that we are still wild, and the recovery of that vitality will itself set us right in the world."--Thomas Moore Author of Care of the Soul"I am grateful to WOMEN WHO RUN WITH THE WOLVES and to Dr. Clarissa Pinkola Estés. The work shows the reader how glorious it is to be daring, to be caring, and to be women. Everyone who can read should read this book."--Maya Angelou"An inspiring book, the 'vitamins for the soul' [for] women who are cut off from their intuitive nature."--San Francisco Chronicle"Stands out from the pack . . . A joy and sparkle in [the] prose . . . This book will become a bible for women interested in doing deep work. . . . It is a road map of all the pitfalls, those familiar and those horrifically unexpected, that a woman encounters on the way back to her instinctual self. Wolves . . . is a gift."--Los Angeles Times"A mesmerizing voice . . . Dramatic storytelling she learned at the knees of her [immigrant] aunts."--Newsweek

"Within every woman there is a wild and natural creature, a powerful force, filled with good instincts, passionate creativity, and ageless knowing. Her name is Wild Woman, but she is an endangered species. Though the gifts of wildish nature come to us at birth, society's attempt to "civilize" us into rigid roles has plundered this treasure, and muffled the deep, life-giving messages of our own souls. Without Wild Woman, we become over-domesticated, fearful, uncreative, trapped." "Clarissa Pinkola Estes, Ph.D., Jungian analyst and cantadora storyteller, shows how woman's vitality can be restored through what she calls "psychic archeological digs" into the bins of the female unconscious. In Women Who Run with the Wolves, Dr. Estes uses multicultural myths, fairy tales, folk tales, and stories chosen from over twenty years of research that help women reconnect with the healthy, instinctual, visionary attributes of the Wild Woman archetype." "Dr. Estes collects the bones of many stories, looking for the archetypal motifs that set a woman's inner life into motion. "La Loba" teaches about the transformative function of the psyche. In "Bluebeard", we learn what to do with wounds that will not heal; in "Skeleton Woman", we glimpse the mystical power of relationship and how dead feelings can be revived; "Vasalisa the Wise" brings our lost womanly instincts to the surface again; "The Handless Maiden" recovers the Wild Woman initiation rites; and "The Little Match Girl" warns against the insidious dangers of a life spent in fantasy." "In these and other stories, we focus on the many qualities of Wild Woman. We retrieve, examine, love, and understand her, and hold her against our deep psyches as one who is both magic and medicine." "In Women Who Run with the Wolves, Dr. Estes has created a new lexicon for describing the female psyche. Fertile and lifegiving, it is a psychology of women in the truest sense, a knowing of the soul."--BOOK JACKET.… (more)

A Cambridge high school student devastated by the cancellation of extra-curricular activities said it's about time student voices were heard in the ongoing teachers' strike situation.
Alyssa Chapelle, a fifth-year-student at Galt Collegiate Institute, said Tuesday's announcement by the Waterloo Region District School Board that all music, sports and club activities are cancelled due to teacher boycotts, is sparking an angry outcry.
Students don't want to feel powerless anymore, she told the Times, and are preparing protests of their own starting Dec. 10. The date marks the same day teachers will begin withdrawing from volunteer duties, as directed by the latest decision of the Ontario Secondary School Teachers Federation.
"No matter when or how, the students will get the message out," vowed Chapelle. "They don't realize how strong our voice will be."
The 18 year old had been following news about disputes between the Ministry of Education and teacher unions, but felt assured students would "never get dragged into this fight".
Week by week, conversations started to shake that confidence, however. Even jokes about having a day off school seemed less funny. A long-time participant in the school's music programs, Chapelle's heart sunk when a teacher informed students Tuesday that music and choir programs were being suspended due to escalated strike action.
She said it was clear the news was hard for her teacher to break.
"He choked up, and you could tell that he didn't want to do this," she said. "I was angry and hurt. I learned as the day progressed that more and more teachers in our school stood in front of their teams and clubs saying words they didn't want to say."

[caption id="attachment_1346" align="alignnone" width="448"] Marco with Steve Ballmer[/caption]
A prolific public speaker Marco's engagements range from one-to-one interviews with well known figures such as Steve Ballmer (Microsoft CEO) in front of 1,500 people, to live interviews with:
Al Gore

[caption id="attachment_1348" align="alignnone" width="619"] Marco with Nicolas Negroponte[/caption]
and many more...
Marco was the day's host for "Techcrunch Disrupt 2012/2013 in Rome
co-MC @ LeWeb 2012 in Paris:
During 2013 you can see him as speaker/moderator at Social Media World Forum 2013 (London), Cloud World Forum, IDCEE (Kiev), Techcrunch Italy (Rome), SearchLove (London) and around the world.
He has been instrumental in the promotion of the internet and digital economy to Italian businesses and consumers via successful events to reveal the opportunities presented by the Internet.
Marco was founding organizer of Social Media Week Italy (over 500 events, 500 speakers, 80.000 visitors in 3 editions), Codice Internet (a tour of Italian cities with a tech show in theaters), Al Gore Meets Bloggers (600 bloggers live on TV) and Startup Train (1.000 startuppers on a high speed train!).
He has been through every medium (TV, Radio, Web, Newspapers), doing presentations in the most desperate conditions, from town squares to castles, from mega conventions of 5,000 people to hotel rooms with 2 people, from meetings at nursing homes with eighty-year-olds to face-to-face meetings with sixteen-year-olds behind school desks.
His latest startup is SuperSummit the first network of Free Live Online Events.
Previously Marco launched a startup to promote new media and technologies to Italian politicians, connecting the political world with digital innovation and opportunity and he was co founder and CEO of Blogosfere, one of largest and most influential blog networks subsequently acquired by Populis.
Marco lives between Italy and the UK with his partner and children.
He loves table tennis and in a previous life was ranked n° 3 in Italy. He is considering a comeback for the next Olympics...
"Marco is a fantastic speaker, energetic, humorous and open to discussing any topic regardless of its complexity. We look forward to working with him at the next Cloud World Forum!" Francesca Hannay, Conference Manager, Cloud World Series
"Marco Montemagno is one of the best presenters I've ever seen, in any language. He's unconventional, thought-provoking, inspiring, and entertaining. His tips will be an invaluable resource for anyone–in any business–who wants to create and deliver more persuasive presentations. I look forward to receiving his tips!" Carmine Gallo, communications coach, author, "The Presentation Secrets of Steve Jobs"
"Marco kicked off SearchLove London in style! He is an incredibly dynamic presenter who is able to bring energy, pace and engagement to your audience. And he is damn smart too. A perfect presenter for any tech event." Lynsey Little, Head of Events, Distilled
"Monty is the most dynamic, and unconventional presenter I have ever seen. There is no excuse to be boring on stage—ever! If you are in business or education, you can learn a ton watching and listening to Marco Montemagno!" Garr Reynolds, author, "Presentation Zen"
"I am glad that we had Marco moderating IDCEE this year. With his attitude and approach to moderation, Marco contributed into making IDCEE a high-scale international event. Marco was also helpful to us throughout the year by adivising on different aspects of the program preparation. When on stage, I especially liked his approaching speakers with interesting but light questions at the end of each talk. Marco knows how to create a warm atmosphere."
Viktoriya Tigipko, IDCEE Organizer
"Marco Montemagno has been and still is in Italy a point of reference for the digital world. He was the first to divulge Internet on television for so many years taking care of a successful program of SkyTG24 entitled "Io reporter," leading to the first experience of citizen journalism in the news" Emilio Carelli, Former Director SkyTg24 - Sky News Italy
"If you're looking for someone to bring an event to life, there is no better presenter than Marco Montemagno. He captures the audience's attention from the second he leaps onto the stage and they remain transfixed until the very end. His knowledge of the industry is invaluable, bringing a genuine depth to any topic surrounding the digital world. I would not hesitate to work with him again on any event." Amanda Lorenzani, Organiser, TechCrunch Italy
"I have had the opportunity to work with Marco over the past 5 years, when I was in Microsoft and most recently at Oracle, and I must say that he's like the good wine: getting better and better :-) At the end of 2012, Marco has joined my Oracle's team for a major customers' event, and his performance and insights were truly impressive and highly appreciated by the entire audience." Mario D'erba, Regional Sales VP, Systems, South Europe at Oracle
A quick question to anyone who has to do a presentation - doing a pitch for a start-up, presenting an idea to your boss, an academic presentation, a job interview, a new idea to get a partner interested in, a client you need to convince…you name it ;)
So the question is: how can you supercharge your pitch?
I think I can help you with this presentation training course!
I'm not a presentation expert but simply a tech entrepreneur and I have spent the last 12 years of my life "divulging" the opportunities offered by the Internet and technology by doing presentations.
For every type of audience. On every medium. In-almost-any situation.
My journey…I went through every type of medium (TV, Radio, Web, Newspapers) doing presentations in the most desperate conditions, from town squares to castles (to an audience seated at dining tables, starving before dinner), frommega conventions of 5,000 people to hotel rooms with 2 people, from meetings at nursing homes with eighty-year-olds to face-to-face meetings with sixteen-year-olds behind school desks. I had to do theatrical monologues of 90 minutes and 10 minute pitches on trains for the entire 3-and-a-half hour journey (rotating between 11 wagons, talking to 6 people at a time), as well as summarizing my messages in 12 second clips for radio interviews, right through to 21 minute live television transmissions on my own program (with guests like Jeff Bezos). Lastly, I had the chance to interview thousands of guests, ranging from one-to-one interviews with well-known figures such as Steve Ballmer in front of 1,500 people, to live interviews with Al Gore on TV including accepting live questions from the audience (while defending myself in the meantime from physical attack by a fanatic…).
Above all, out of sheer necessity, I had to invent different and unconventional methods of presenting, in order to be able to survive in situations that you cannot overcome just by showing some simple slides. I brought ping-pong tables on the stage to explain and play at the same time, I gave out rings to marry the Internet, I used sensors to transform the audience into a single joystick, I folded T-shirts in 5 seconds, I gave out sheets of paper to make portraits and I brought tennis balls to throw on the stage.

Neighborhoods: Central LA, Greater Wilshire / Hancock Park
I love this neighborhood hot spot; delicious food, quality service, and my mouth waters when thinking about their sangria! You'll find me parked at Luna Park particularly during their 2 for 1 happy hour.
A little over-hyped for the food and service – Went to Luna Park for the first time with a friend last week and thought it was a bit over-hyped. First of all make sure to bring money for parking because you will either have to valet or fight for one of the metered spots on La Brea.
We decided to share a bottle of wine and some courses. We started off with the chipotle caesar salad, it was good, nothing out of this world - but had a little kick with spice. Next, we had the parmesan rigatoni Bolognese. My friend ordered this before and said it was really good, but this time around it was kind of bland and needed some extra salt and pepper to liven it up.
However, we decided up front that we were going to treat ourselves with the make your own s'mores - these were super yummy and definitely made up for the rest of the meal.
The overall look of the restaurant was nice, very dark with candles - maybe nice for a date instead of meeting a friend. And was disappointed that someone told me to get the grilled cheese and tomato soup because it is really good, but apparently it is only offered on the lunch menu. I looked at this menu online and it looks like it offers a ton more than just the dinner menu - so maybe next time I'll try lunch instead of dinner there.
Always packed! Groupon friendly! Great environment! – Came to Luna with my sister during her birthday. Food was great. We had a salad and an avocado burger. They offer great discounts through twitter and groupon and have a full bar. If you can, go there on someones birthday, the "cake" they bring you is surprisingly "large" :) I'll let you see what I'm talking about. It gave us a good laugh on how clever they were!
Love the chocolate mimosas – Dont know if they still serve them but my mom & I had theyre chocolate mimosas and mmmm they were yummy!
Find Them on Twitter! – Almost on a weekly basis, Luna Park tweets unreal discounts, such as 50% off your entire check. Of course, you have to be following them to know the secret password to whisper to your server. Luna Park also offers "Blue Plate Specials" Sunday to Thursday night with entrees priced from $10 to $12, in addition to their regular menu items like goat cheese fondue, pot roast and pork cutlet. Don't forget to order one of their specialty cocktails, their sangria is my favorite. [Twitter Handle: @lunaparkla]
worst meal we have ever had – My husband and I had dinner here on april 9, 2010,by
recommendation from sandra lee of the food network
we drove from orange county to la, we had concert tickets at staples and decided to drive to luna park
then back to downtown for concert. What a mistake
we arrived at 5:30pm dinner time very few people in
restaurant. We were sat at a booth that everytime
the door was opened to go to serve people in outside
patie a large draft of air would come in. My husband immediately order his appitizer when we sat down because be knew we needed to leave by 7:00 to get back to downtown. As soon as the water was put on the table we ordered dinner, my husband ordered the casulet and I order stuffed pork cutlet with mushrooms and guyere cheese. We waited l hours for dinner and
when it came my husband dish was so hot and steaming he had to wait 20 mins to cool , the beans
were not cook and the rest was a mushey mess. My
cutlet was about the side a a 3x5 card so thin that
if it was stuffed the mushroom and cheese were not
noticed in the flavor., the mashed potatoes were runney and cold swinning in butter or oil unable to
detact flavor,. We then ordered the signature dessert
make you own smores., the homemade crackers were
burnt and the marshmellow were difficult to get out
of the heated dish, they stuck to the spoon and had
to get transferred to cracker. The only positive was we
had a 50% off coupon, thank goodness, i would have
been upset if we had paid full price for this poorly
prepared food. We were planning to take friends
from australia there but will not now and would not
recommed to anyone. When the management realized that we had been waiting a long time for our
meal they avoided our table like the plague, never said
and about the poor service or the long wait. A couple
came in 30-40 minutes after use and received the same dishes that we ordered 5 minutes after our food
arrived . We had to continuely ask for water, know one
every came to your table to see if were liked the food, etc. Regular prices of food are way to high for the
small portions and poor preparation, Don't waste your
time or money in this restaurant.
Great drinks and fun atmosphere – It may be hard to find, but it's a really cute date spot or a fun place to eat with the girls.
I only had their sandwiches which may have been a mistake because it was so-so. Everyone raves of the mac&cheese so maybe next time?
Great atmosphere and kind of crappy service, drinks were yummy.
Great deserts! – Forgot about this spot because of all the new fab restos in town. But went back recently and had a spot on lunch. Everything was just great and we got a killer deal (50% off!) by following them on twitter. I was very impressed with the mac & cheese, salads and especially the deserts. I will go back and i must remember to remember Luna Park as a viable dinner option too!
Better Now than before – I get the comments below I have been there a few times and was very iffy on going back. But I got a gift card for half price at lahalfoff. com so I figured it was cheap. Food was much better and the staff was really nice actually. I guess they read citysearch...
Good in LA ... better in SF – I live a few blocks away so I end up at Luna Park a few times a month (it is a 5 minute walk).
Most of the food is consistently good but a little overpriced. My favorite item on the menu is the tuna poke.
Aviod the S'mores for dessert ... I've made better s'mores in my microwave.
Don't waste your time! – Just bad food. OK place. Bad food. Cheap though. If it was this or pretty much any other place I would go there first.

As a former Town Council member, I can really appreciate the job Steve has done during his first term as mayor. Even though it is a part-time position, he has treated it as a full-time job. He brought with him a wealth of experience in financial and resource management, which has allowed him to institute sound fiscal policies and put accountability back into our town government.
Perhaps most importantly, he recognizes the need for cooperation and teamwork with the Town Council and can provide the leadership to make it happen. Please join me in voting for Steve Baswell for mayor of Ohatchee on Tuesday.

U-20 MNT Defeat Guatemala 2-1 in Boca Raton
BOCA RATON, Fla. (Nov. 15, 2006) — The U.S. Under-20 Men's National Team came back from a goal down with strikes from Freddy Adu and Anthony Wallace in the second half to defeat Guatemala, 2-1, in front of 1,600 fans at Florida Atlantic University in Boca Raton, Fla.
In a game where both teams struggled offensively, Guatemala took the surprising lead in the 20th minute of the game, turning a goal-line clearance on a U.S. corner kick into a counter-attack that ended with Edward de la Roca finishing past goalkeeper Nicholas Skverer. Roca's shot was just one of two on goal Guatemala had all game, both of them coming in the first half.
In the second half, Adu pulled the U.S. even with an impressive header off a cross from Quavas Kirk before Anthony Wallace tallied the game-winner with four minutes remaining with a low drive that Guatemala goalkeeper Carlos Reyes misplayed, allowing the ball to bounce over his outstretched hands and into the back of the net.
"I was impressed by Guatemala and at times we had trouble breaking them down," said U.S. Under-20 Men's National Team head coach Thomas Rongen, who was leading the U-20s against Guatemala for the first time since 2001. "Let's be real honest, we end winning the game on a goalkeeping mistake. In the end though, getting the result is important, especially being able to do it in a tight game where we had to come from behind. Now we have to understand that when qualifying begins in January we will have to be playing better if we want to qualify for the World Cup in Canada."
While the U.S. had the majority of the possession in the first half, it struggled to create chances and only took three shots. Their best chance came in the 20th minute, but it quickly ended up backfiring for the U.S. as Guatemala went from goal line to goal line in a matter of moments.
Adu curled in a corner kick to the back post where Tim Ward hit a half-volley past the goalkeeper, but the ball was cleared off the line by midfielder Patrick Howell. The U.S. regained possession and quickly pushed back into the attack, but Wallace's pass for Adu on the right sideline was intercepted and Guatemala knocked the ball up the field with numbers. Roca darted past the U.S. backline to collect a pass from midfield and forced Skverer to come off his line before finishing past the former Dutch U-17 goalkeeper, who earned his first cap with a U.S. national team.
As the U.S. continued to struggle on the offensive end, Guatemala almost doubled their lead in the 37th minute off a free kick from the left side of the penalty area. Expecting a cross into the box, midfielder Marco Papa surprised Skverer with a tough-angled shot, but the 'keeper was able to get a hand on the ball to parry it over the bar.
With two-thirds of the match gone, the U.S. finally began to break down Guatemala's defense and found the equalizer in the 63rd minute when Adu headed home for the sixth U-20 goal of his career. Kirk collected the ball along the right flank and created enough space to knock a cross into the box where Adu headed the ball across the goal and past Reyes into the left side of the net. The assist was the first for Kirk with the U-20s.
While being outplayed, Guatemala still put a bit of pressure on the U.S. defense, but all four of their shots in the second half were off target.
Adu once again set up one of him teammates off a restart, this time sending in a accurate free kick to the head of Dax McCarty in the penalty area in the 75th minute. One of the shortest players on the field, McCarty rose for his header just inside the box, but his attempt went just wide left.
Despite missing the header, McCarty did end up getting a point when his simple pass from 30 yards out to Wallace led to the USA's game-winning goal. The University of South Florida freshman collected the ball near the left corner of the penalty area and looked up at goal before hitting a ball that appeared to be a bad cross. The low drive bounced along the ground and took a small hop to allow what seemed to be an easy collection for Reyes, a disastrous mistake that allowed the U.S. to come away victorious.
"I didn't think it was going in," said Wallace, whose game-winning goal was the first of his U-20 career. "I got the shot of, and everyone said they thought it was a cross, but I know it was a shot, and it started to bounce a little bit before it went into the back of the net. I was just relieved."
The U.S. could end up playing Guatemala again during the 2007 CONCACAF Final Round Qualifying Tournament early next year. The U.S. and Guatemala are two of the eight qualified teams that will be split into two groups of four with Group A taking place from Jan. 17-21 in Panama City, Panama, and Group B from Feb. 21-25 in Culiacan, Sinaloa, which is on the west coast of Mexico. The draw to determine which teams will be in Group A and Group B will be held on Nov. 24 during the CONCACAF Executive Committee Meeting in Los Angeles.
The other four qualified teams are Costa Rica, Haiti, St. Kitts & Nevis and the winner of a home-and-away series between Jamaica and Trinidad & Tobago. The top two squads from each group will qualify for the FIFA U-20 World Cup in Canada, which will take place from June 30-July 22 across six cities – Montreal, Ottawa, Toronto, Edmonton, Burnaby and Victoria.
In preparation for qualifying, the U.S. will be back in camp starting Dec. 12 in Bradenton, Fla. The team will be finish camp on Dec. 23, but return on Dec. 28 and train until Jan. 7. The players and staff will have one week off before getting together once again for a few days in Florida and then head to either Panama or Mexico for qualifying.

I hope I'm putting this into the right place, but I was wondering if someone could help me out with a game I'm making.
I am using Visual Studio C# to make an RPG, right now so far i have the program give you items when you "open a treasure chest" and these items are put into an array. After these items are put into an array and you open your inventory form the items stored in the array are put into labels (Short sword = array[0] and that is in slot 1; so on and so forth). I now want to know how to, when slot1 is clicked on (it is a label with "Short Sword" written in it due to an array loading it) i want it to be equiped to a certain place, like to the left hand for example.
If this isn't too confusing and someone could give me some guidance on a way to do this that would be great.

I enjoy cooking. There, I said it. Ridicule my manliness if you will, but I like the slicing and dicing, the logic behind the ordering of the various tasks to allow for a degree of parallel processing, and the satisfaction of having all of the diverse elements of a meal coalesce at roughly the same time. Even for something as simple as the weekend breakfast, limited resources (only one microwave oven, for example) have to be balanced against various cooking times (bacon = very slow, eggs = very fast) to keep some of the ingredients from getting cold or coagulated while the others are still being prepared.
As is common with amateurs such as myself, I like watching the professionals do it too. If you ever have the opportunity to visit a Waffle House restaurant on a busy weekend morning, pay attention to the frantic activity in the kitchen. The waitresses call out the orders using a standardized lingo ("scattered, smothered well...") and the cooks work from memory. They don't get a copy of the order to work from; the waitress calls it out, they have to remember it all while they prepare it. Eggs, breakfast meats, various forms of bread, and waffle batter fly around in a highly synchronized ballet of breakfast. I've often thought about taking a job there when I retire just to learn how it all works. I'm fascinated by it.
"Uh, not to be rude, Dude, but so what? Why are you telling me this?" Well, mostly to explain why an old guy approaching the big five-oh got such a kick out of Order Up! for the Wii. In Order Up!, you (somewhat incongruously) start out as a new and untested chef parachuting out of an airplane to start your career as a restaurant owner/chief cook/dishwasher. As I did when I was a teen, you start out at minimum wage being managed by a pimple-faced youth and making just enough money to net out negative after taxes and other costs. You learn the ropes of food preparation and kitchen equipment under his weaselly tutelage, but soon quit in disgust. Faced with bleak prospects, you consider ending it all with a large butchers knife (ok, not really – I'm embellishing) but happen across an old diner that's for sale. Seeing it as a fixer-upper, you buy it and open your first business, Gravy Chug.
Your menu here will consist mostly of burgers and fries, but you will also be making breakfast dishes. As you gain skill, though, you will expand your menu and even start expressing your creativity with Chef's Specials. You will learn how to use the Wii remote to slice tomatoes, strip lettuce, and flip burgers. These are all fairly intuitive motions and are easy to learn, although some of them are more particular than others. Flipping a burger is easy, but working with lettuce was something I could never grasp, so to speak. More often than not, I'd pass that job along to my assistant chef. Later in my career when I had moved up to a Mexican restaurant, I also found that folding up a burrito was something I preferred to delegate. But grating cheese? I am the MASTER of grating cheese!
Speaking of delegation, you have one assistant chef that inexplicably works for free, but whines constantly and even falls asleep on the job now and then. You can also hire an additional assistant from a group of specialists once you have saved up some "coin." Coin is the currency used to buy supplies such as spices, and to pay taxes. The game doesn't use the word 'tax,' of course, but there are items (new recipes for Chef's Specials, for example) that you are required to buy in order to move to the next level. Just like Social Security, you can call it whatever you want, but if I have no choice other than paying it, it is a tax. Spices, on the other hand, are optional, but they sell at a hefty mark up so it's a good idea to buy them.
As your restaurant starts attracting more customers, you will soon gather a set of regular customers. Some are more desirable that others; one has an apparently incurable flatulence problem and another bears a striking resemblance to a vampire. Each has their own quirks with regards to how they like their food prepared, and they tip well if you get it right. These preferences take the form of using the appropriate type of spice (hot, salty, sweet, aromatic, etc.) or the degree that the food is cooked. The vampire guy likes everything raw.

The architects of the sound of the new south, "B Boi" hailing from the Southside of Atlanta (Southwest to be exact) , "B-Town" also hailing from the Southside of Atlanta (College Park to be exact) collectively know as Mullage. Although they both grew up in Atlanta just a few miles apart, it took them traveling half way around the world to meet by way of US Navy. Instantly they realized they shared a common bond- Music. Although they were stationed on different ships, that didn't keep them from recording & performing whenever the opportunity presented itself. As soon as they got out the Navy, they moved back to Atlanta with 1 goal in mind, to become a part of musical history. It didn't take long for the industry to catch wind of this new dynamic duo. After a high energy performance at the legendary Blue Flame and thanks to Carlos and Osei The Dark Secret, they signed to From The Ground Up Records and the rest is history. With their unique experiences & world travel brace yourself fo ... Read More

It's easy to feel trapped in a relationship where one person is footing the bill.
At 41, Emily badly wanted a baby, so much so that she gave her boyfriend an ultimatum, and they started trying to conceive.
Her boyfriend, a scientist, traveled a lot and kept an emotional distance. "I weighed the pros and cons and decided to go ahead," she says, "even though I doubted I could ever be happy with him."
Her reasoning: He made $300,000.
"I focused on the fact that I would be a good mother and he'd be the provider." She herself earned about $90,000 as an editor, but the job was too demanding to combine with single motherhood. "It was way too scary to do it on my own," she says.
Some would call her a "gold-digger." Others might see themselves in her and recognize her fear.
Why People Dig
Not so long ago, it was considered sensible for a woman to seek a good provider. Nowadays, we're all expected to pride ourselves on our independence and choose (or mostly choose) someone for love. Any interest in a man's prospects can feel mercenary, despite the still-shaky economy and even though women still earn less than men-77 cents for every dollar. And while college degrees help, they don't close the gap: College-educated women earn five percent less the first year out of college than their male peers, and 10 years later, even if they keep working, 12 percent less. For all the news coverage of the fact that men got hit worse in the latest recession, on balance, men remain ahead.
The term "gold-digger" summons up the image of 22 year olds kissing ancient lips hoping for a fast inheritance. But what do we think about college students entertaining sugar daddies who help cover their tuition? There are more than 50 shades of gray, any number of circumstances in which women (and men) who lack resources enter into relationships they might otherwise not choose. Gold-digging happens when people are greedy but also when they feel trapped.
MORE: Learn How to Negotiate a Raise
Lorraine still cries when she thinks about how she treated a man we'll call Dan. At first they were in love, and she was deeply grateful to him. Dan wasn't attractive, but he was super smart and recognized her intelligence. He encouraged her to go to college, and with his salary as an electrical engineer, he helped her feed the three kids from a previous marriage she bore in her 20s.
Four years later, she'd gained admission to a top Ph.D. program and Dan offered to move with her and her kids from Alabama to Texas. Although she'd won prestigious fellowships, they weren't sufficient, and graduate school was a "full-time job," she says. "I let him move only because I needed him to pay the rent," she says.
By then, love had failed and "I nearly hated him," Lorraine confesses. She lay awake at night agonizing with guilt, and worrying that she wouldn't be able to continue. "I wasn't even nice to him," she says. "I loathed the way he breathed, the way he smelled, the way he held a glass in his hand, the way he ate, " she says. "I have no doubt that this was a projection of my loathing of myself for using him."
Yet Lorraine also says she'd do it again for the sake of her education. "I had teenagers who needed braces, no family to back me up, a huge debt and no child support," she says. After two years, she was able to get a job that she could do while still in school. She asked Dan to leave. Still, he came to her graduation ceremony and told her with tears in his eyes that he was proud of her. "So maybe he got to feel that he did something big for another person-and at a pretty great cost to himself," she says.
MORE: Can Money Buy You Happiness?
"It was completely against my values," Lorraine says. "Serial gold-diggers who seek out very wealthy men so obviously for the stuff , that's different. I do judge them, but then I also judge him." She adds, "But women who struggle with it, oh I have great, great empathy for them. I understand the pain of it, the cost of it, and I wish no one felt like that was her best option."
When Digging = Humiliation
Ellen Walker, Ph.D., a psychologist in Bellingham, Wash., sees many patients who have become financially dependent and feel stuck in unhappy marriages. "Your self-esteem has been chipped away over time until you find that you're not strong enough to make the moves it takes," says Walker. When the marriage collapses, you can be left without love, cash or confidence.
Dependency can creep up on you even if you weren't looking for an escape hatch. When Hank fell in love with the woman who became the mother of his children, he didn't know she was a trust-fund baby. Although she frequently hinted, "You've hit the jackpot with me," she lived modestly, and her last name didn't reveal her origins. Eventually, the couple decided that Hank would leave a well-paying job in television for a year to help raise the kids.
MORE: Your DNA's Role in Your Chances of Divorce
But the pair split and he was never able to regain his former income. A month ago, short several hundred on his rent, he had to ask his ex for a loan. "It was depressing and humiliating," he said. "I'm not so sure I hit the jackpot." On the plus side, although he's scratching for cash, he knows his two kids won't ever suffer-both have trust funds set up by lawyers he's never met.
When the "Dug" Has a Dark Side
The irony is that gold-digging, often a bid for security, is a big risk. In the classic greedy scenario, both sides are avoiding intimacy, and they may have little in common except a desire for status. "You can't have a digger without a dug," says San Jose, Calif. psychotherapist Margaret Cochran, Ph.D. Dugs are often narcissists who "see other people as stupid or less competent than they are. Everyone is an object to be manipulated." They turn easily into bullies. Cochran tells the story of a rich client who punched his "arm-candy" girlfriend in the nose because she searched the glove compartment of his car without permission.
MORE: How to Spot a True Narcissist
Along with bullying, bribery is part of the game. Amy met her boyfriend, Jack, who was 20 years older, in a support group for the disabled. Although they became close friends, their disabilities interfered with their sex and she lost interest. One day, Jack, who has no children, told her that he'd named her as his beneficiary on a $1 million account. That kept her in the relationship for another year and a half, she confesses. She lives on disability payments, some of which will stop in her 60s.
But then he began pushing to live together, and offered to pay for an apartment that would be solely in her name. He'd keep his own home, he said, so they could get "space" during conflicts.
"I almost did it for the apartment," she says. She ended up breaking up while promising to "be there" whenever he needed her. Jack still frequently calls her asking for help related to his disability, and jokes about the fact that he hasn't "taken her name off his account"-yet.
The deal-part-time caregiving in exchange for an inheritance-isn't explicit. He could change his beneficiary at any time and not tell her. Would she be angry? "Yes, and I don't have the integrity to talk to him about it directly," Amy confesses. "But I'd still help him."
MORE: Diagnose Your Relationship Problems
Digging Into the Future
To answer the question, "Are you a gold-digger?" take the other person's point of view. Often they're somewhat clued in to your terms. "As long as the other person gets something too and feels like the deal is fair, you're not using them," Lorraine says. "Also, you know how good it feels to take care of someone, so that's something to gain, too."
Hank, who is studying political science, sees marriage returning to its origins. "For millennia, marriage was primarily an economic relation. The privileged could afford romance. Then democracy spread, and the poorer in western industrial democracies found themselves enjoying some of the benefits the wealthy had previously had entirely to themselves. Now we are losing ground."
Put starkly-rich man vs. poor man-how many of us would choose strictly for love? Walker knows two friends, one an actor, who is "poor as a church mouse and lives in rented rooms," and a multi-millionaire entrepreneur. Although the actor is better looking and a better conversationalist, his girlfriend left him for the entrepreneur. "It's just common sense," she says.

One of the true jewels of Colorado, Steamboat Lake State Park has something special for everyone. Whatever your preference, well-deserved relaxation and recreation awaits you.
Hahn's Peak frames the breathtaking scenery of this premier park offering family fishing, camping, picnicking, trail and boating recreational opportunities. A full-service Marina and swim beach provide amenities for active water play.
Winter comes alive with snowmobiling, ice fishing, and peaceful cross-country skiing or snow-shoeing in a valley surrounded by snow-capped mountains. Ten camper cabins down by the Marina welcome adventurers for a cozy night.
Camping at Steamboat Lake offers a spectacular opportunity to immerse yourself in clean, crisp air and true Rocky Mountain living.
Winter camping with electric outlets is available on a first-come-first-serve basis in our Marina parking lot at a rate of $20 / night.
Reservations for 2014 may be made between 3 days and 6 months in advance with a first reserveable date of Friday, May 23rd, and a last reserveable date of Monday, September 8th. During this peak season, non-electric sites are $18 a night and electric are $22 a night. For detailed campsite information please click here.
Our camper cabins are open and reservable year-round by contacting the Steamboat Lake Marina at 970-879-7019, or through their website by clicking here.
Our park truly thrives in the deep winters of north Routt County. Averaging over both 300 days of sunshine and inches of snow each year, it's a breathtaking place to be!
Whatever you like to do in and around snow or ice, we have it here. There's access to over 140 miles of groomed snowmobile rail, 15k of groomed non-motorized trail, a marked snowshoeing route, and the ice fishing is unsurpassed! Check out the winter recreation brochure.
Parking is available both at the Visitor Center and the Marina. Park passes are required for both areas. Also, we want to continue being a pet friendly place, so please keep any dogs on a leash.
While you're enjoying your time here, please use sunscreen and drink water to avoid dehydration.
If you have any questions or if there's anything our staff can do for you, please let us know!

Kuliax is a relatively complete GNU/Linux live distribution developed and optimized for learning, research, and development use, primarily in higher education. It is based on Debian GNU/Linux stable and Debian Live, with backports.org packages. Custom packages include artwork and electronic books.
Rivet CGI allows Rivet applications to run as a CGI, either automatically (i.e., no modifications to the applications themselves from "mod_rivet") from Apache, as a standalone CGI under any Web server, or as a standalone HTTP server itself. It can be used to build Web applications that can be distributed and executed as a single file in either CGI or Standalone HTTP mode.
Dist::Zilla builds distributions of code to be uploaded to the CPAN. In this respect, it is like ExtUtils::MakeMaker, Module::Build, or Module::Install. Unlike those tools, however, it is not also a system for installing code that has been downloaded from the CPAN. Since it's only run by authors, and is meant to be run on a repository checkout rather than on published, released code, it can do much more than those tools, and is free to make much more ludicrous demands in terms of prerequisites.
Leeenux is a complete netbook Linux distribution made for the Asus eee 701G with 2GB and 4GB SSD, but other netbooks can run it as well. Its purpose is to make this popular netbook useful once again. Its intention is to provide a fast and reliable experience out of the box with as much usability as a 7" screen can give. It is based on Ubuntu minimal, and it contains only free software. It has the UNR menu and uses light applications and GNOME. There are no Mono or Qt applications.
INPUTsys Exe Packer creates executables with a Java Runtime Environment (JRE) and additional files embedded. When the packed application starts, the JRE files will be extracted to a temporary directory. The minimum size of the resulting executable file is 13MB. No ahead of time (AOT) compilation is done; the Hotspot compiler is used. There is a Java system property which points to the extracted directory, so your Java application can use whatever files have been packed into the executable.
ViitorLinux is a Linux distribution for server systems. It's configured and managed like Solaris systems (with some changes in paths). It has a build script system which allows you to build the whole distribution from source with different C-flags and options. It has its own package management system completly written in Bash. Its build scripts allow you to create a bootable installation and live DVD from the previously generated binary packages.
A next-generation build system.
A tool to monitor your servers and websites.

Hello! I'm a college buddy of DWH, and although she's the one who convinced me to shift my costuming interests from anime to Star Wars, she went and graduated before we could troop together.
For the moment, I'm outposting all by myself in a village in the Indian Himalayas, stitching away on new costumes and making my English students watch the original trilogy from time to time.
Though I'm not there yet, I'll be moving down to LA with my brother in June. I'm really excited to actually get a chance to troop again and take my costume out for a walk.
So hoorah! I can't wait to meet you guys. DWH has been telling me many great things. ^_^
In the mean time... I shall see if I can't get my brother in to a Luke costume... Heh.

Hello all. I'm Tom, aka TKMANDO and TK-7151. I have decided to do an ESB Han. I know a number of the Sun Rider members already from all the trooping I have done over the past six years. I thought I'd introduce myself on the RL boards as well.
I am in the process of building DL-44. I am looking for a machinist that can make the flash hider for me. If anyone has a machinist they can recommend please post or PM me. Thanks!

I've been a Star Wars junkie since 1977. And I have been making my own costumes since ET originally hit theaters.

Now, don't you worry. The saucers are up there. The graveyard is out there. But I'll be locked up safely in there.

My costume has just been approved as a generic New Republic Jedi and I've been assigned to Sunrider Base! Very excited to be joining you guys and hope I can come out to an event soon.
Been a star wars fan since I was a little kid and saw the cantina band sequence. It grabbed my attention and I watched all three of the original trilogy movies. Then waited a few years until Episode 1 came out.
