Let's Go Ottawa
Ottawa Shopping Style Series: PART II: The ByWard Market beyond Sussex Drive
- Thursday, 28 March 2013 09:28
- Written by Megan Peckford
Ottawa has tons of great neighbourhoods with unique style and shopping experiences. The Ottawa Shopping Style Series will take you on a tour of Ottawa's best shopping districts.
There are far too many stores in the ByWard Market district to go through them all. As a series of interconnected streets and courtyards, it's easy to miss some of the fantastic spots that locals make sure to hit when out on a shopping spree. Follow the route outlined below to make sure you don't miss any of these fantastic finds.
Where better to start your shopping tour but at the ByWard Market Building on the corner of William Street and George Street which runs the length of one market block. Pop in and out of the artisan stores that line the William Street side of the building. Here you can find stunning jewellery at all price points, from cute earrings to one-of-a-kind hand-crafted necklaces at Csilla Ekes. On the east side of William Street, check out Allegro Clothing where new and vintage finds mingle in one great store.
Cross York Street and continue down William Street to Frou Frou Boutique for a great selection of unique and trendy clothes. Attached to the store is the Sassy Bead Co. where literally thousands of beads are just waiting to be turned into your creation.
Victoire, a fantastic store bursting with Canadian designers and a classic but edgy style. Next door is Workshop Studio and Boutique; the store's concept is to showcase the work of the two owners and of other talented women in the Ottawa community and beyond. They have a little of everything from handbags and clothing to home accessories and giftware.
Turn right on Clarence Street and scope a place for dinner as you walk to Dalhousie Street. Turn left on to Dalhousie and meander two blocks to the corner of St. Patrick Street. Here you'll findWalk back to Murray Street and head west (right). Stop at The French Baker to taste a mouthwatering cookie, croissant or pain au chocolat. Then continue up Murray Street and turn right down Parent Ave. to reach the upscale Lida Boutique where you can find designer duds from Diane Von Furstenburg, Max Mara, Nicole Miller and more. Next door is Funk Your Junk, a quirky store that carries the best in hippy chic.
Return south to Clarence Street and turn right (west), making your way up Clarence St. to Jeanne d'arc Courtyard. As you happily swing your shopping bags, stop to admire the Tin House Courtyard (on the north side of Clarence), and look up! Otherwise you might miss the beautiful sculpture created by tinsmith Honoré Foisy to advertise his work (restored in 1973 by Art Price). Cross the Jeanne d'arc Courtyard through York Street, then into the Clarendon Courtyard on the south side of York to peruse the racks of Roadtrip Clothing for stylish men's and women's wear and accessories.
If you are totally exhausted from a full day of shopping, wake-up with a delicious latte next door at Planet Coffee or head back to the hotel and try on all your new duds.

Celebrate this Easter with local foods

Guest post by Dan Bader of Savour Ottawa
Easter is approaching especially quickly this year, almost a full calendar page earlier than it has in recent years. Cooking large meals for friends and family can be stressful as we strive to find the perfect dishes to capture the mood of a particular season or holiday. Sweet potato or squash? Traditional leafy salads or something with a little more pizzazz? How much dessert will people eat? Ah, the questions plaguing the minds of the home schooled chef!
To alleviate some of those stresses and help beat back the endless plague of questions, consider focusing on local and seasonal foods where possible this year.
According to the most recent census, the Ottawa region is home to over 1,000 farms! With several sheep farmers among them, serving a rack or shoulder of local, pasture-raised lamb is an easy choice. Get to know these farms a bit better in the following paragraphs and give one a call to get that something special for your Easter feast.
- Aubin Farms are a self-described 'real old-fashioned farm' with a variety of products from which to choose. Their sheep are grass-fed and pastured on a farm that strives to be a 'closed loop' where the sheep are a vital part of the ecology that makes everything grow. You can also visit them on Facebook!
- The folks at Dusty Lane Farms have made it their goal to help people eat local all year round with their flock of sheep. They raise their sheep naturally on pasture in the summer and on their own home-grown hay in the winter.
- The flock of Katahdin sheep at La ferme Albé are watched over diligently by Salt the watch llama! They were a double finalist in the 2007 "Gala de l'Excellence de Prescott-Russell" which recognizes successful Franco-Ontarian entrepreneurs. They sell all your favourite cuts as well as lamb sausages, rosettes and fricadelles.
- The owners of Morrison Manor Organics spent 10 years searching for the farm of their dreams. Taste their dedication in the flavour of their all-natural, organic-fed lamb. They also produce a variety of poultry and homemade specialty pet foods.
- Heritage and specialty breeds are the focus of production at The Pickle Patch. Owner Aartje den Boer keeps her organic-fed sheep working to maintain the lawn while her pigs help prepare the fields for planting – efficient!
- The raising of Cotswald sheep at Villa August farm is part of a greater strategy of commitment to environmentally sound farming practices and sustaining rare breeds of plants and animals.
- Named after a beautiful flower from their native Australia, the folks at Waratah Downs Farm believe in "keeping agriculture close to the home and to the heart." You can find out more about their farm and their sheep at www.waratahdowns.com or on Facebook.
Although most of these farms sell from their farm gate, you can also find them at several food shops across Ottawa. With so many great sources for locally raised lamb, the decision about what to serve at your Easter celebration is simple!
Never cooked lamb before? NO PROBLEM, this blog has collected a couple of great starter recipes for all the rookies out there. They include, braised lamb shank with mint-parsley pesto, lamb chops with citrus sauce, and roast lamb with spiced red cabbage.
Whatever you decide to cook for Easter dinner and every meal thereafter, consider the amazing assets available to you in the form of all of the foods grown locally, right here in Ottawa.

Looking for something out of the ordinary to do this weekend? Get ready to party, because the Canadian Museum of Nature hosts its third Nature Nocturne event this Friday, March 22 from 8:00 pm until midnight.
This month's theme is SPRING! Although there may still be a bit of snow on the ground, the environment inside Nature Nocturne this weekend is sure to be warm and "blooming" with adventure!
For those of you who haven't already heard about these incredible monthly events, Nature Nocturne is an evening of discovery, dancing, DJs, and drinking (responsibly!) in a dramatic setting: the museum itself! The museum transforms into a nightclub, with two dance floors and access to the museum exhibits and special installations.
Have a "whale" of a time in the main foyer or snap some shots with dinosaurs while you roam throughout the exhibits. Don't forget to tag your Twitter photos with the hashtag #naturenocturne to get them displayed on the giant screen at the top of the stairs in the atrium.
In the Queen's Lantern (the dramatic glassed-in area above the main entrance), DJ Tdot is returning to keep you on your feet, and the fourth floor dance floor will host several different DJs: Adam Saikaley, Jas Nasty, Greg Reain and VJ Ina.
The team at the museum has created a craft workshop where you can build your own ode to spring if your feet get tired from dancing! Catch a glimpse of upcoming exhibits in the "pilot lab" and explore local artists' fibre-art rock installation coordinated by Wabi Sabi.
It's recommended to book your tickets in advance to lessen the wait time to get in, and to ensure you don't miss this amazing event. Tickets are $20 (taxes included) per person. Cash bars can be found on all four levels, and snacks are for sale throughout the museum. And mark your calendars: the next Nature Nocturnes are scheduled for April 26; September 20; October 25; and November 22.

St. Patrick's Day Celebrations in Ottawa!
- Monday, 11 March 2013 13:53
If you will be spending St. Patrick's Day in Ottawa this year, you will not be disappointed with the opportunities in the city to celebrate! Whether you plan to down a pint or two of green beer, learn about Ottawa's Irish heritage, or celebrate in your own way, being in Ottawa will make you feel as lucky as a four leaf clover.
Ottawa is home to many Irish pubs that will certainly be catering to Irish (and Irish-for-the-day) celebrants. The Heart & Crown has four locations throughout the city (including the H&C on Preston Street, James Street Pub on Bank Street, and the Aulde Dubliner/Pour House in the ByWard Market district) and is always popular on St. Patrick's Day. Arrive early as there will certainly be a line-up – the ByWard Market location has said that St. Patrick's Day is usually their busiest day of the year!
D'Arcy McGee's, found on downtown Ottawa's Sparks Street, is also a popular spot on this holiday. They will be hosting live music on the 15th and 16th for anyone who wants to start their celebration a day or two early. The pub is named for Thomas D'Arcy McGee, an Irish immigrant and one of the Fathers of Canadian Confederation, who was assassinated just steps away from this building's front door in 1868.
The Aulde Dubliner and Pour House is another pub from the Heart & Crown chain that can be found in the ByWard Market neighbourhood. They will host live music on St. Patrick's Day from 11:30AM until close, and it is another place that you can expect to find a line-up on March 17!
Broadhead Brewing Company, Beau's All Natural Brewing Company, or Kichesippi Beer Co.; all are brewed the Ottawa area. And at Brothers Beer Bistro, every menu item has beer as an ingredient and the staff can recommend great pairings with many items.
If you can do without the green colouring and are interested in trying a local Ottawa brew, a variety of brew pubs and breweries can be found in Ottawa. Try something fromThere are also plenty of ways to celebrate St. Patrick's Day in Ottawa without venturing to the pubs.
If you like to stay active, the Ottawa Irish Rugby Club partners with The Running Room for an annual Ottawa St. Patrick's Day Run. Taking place along Colonel By Drive, the event will be on March 16 this year and prizes will be awarded for best costumes in addition to top competitors in the 5km and 10km categories! A Family Fun 1K Run/Walk will also take place.
For a more traditional Irish celebration, St. Brigid's Centre for the Arts will host both a parade and a Grand Irish Party on Saturday, March 16, and a St. Patrick's Day Luncheon on the 17th. The luncheon, hosted in the deconsecrated Catholic church in Ottawa's Lowertown neighbourhood, will have live entertainment, music and dancing. St. Brigid's is the home of the National Irish Canadian Cultural Centre, and the party continues after St. Patrick's Day as well. On March 26, they will host Matt Cranitch and Jackie Daly, two well-known performers of Irish music.
Bytown Museum, housed in Ottawa's oldest stone building and found at the Ottawa Locks, traces these stories and the history of Ottawa's early years. On the opposite side of the lock, a Celtic cross was raised in 2004 by the Rideau Canal Celtic Cross Committee to commemorate the thousands of lives lost during the construction of the Canal from 1826-1832.
Of course, no St. Patrick's Day celebration in Ottawa would be complete without a nod to the city's Irish heritage. About 60% of the labourers who constructed the Rideau Canal were Irish immigrants who had settled in the area. TheNo matter how you celebrate this St. Patrick's Day in Ottawa, as the Irish blessing says, "May your blessings outnumber the shamrocks that grow / And may trouble avoid you wherever you go."

- Thursday, 28 February 2013 09:00
- Written by Jantine Van Kregten
Despite the heavy snowfall we've experienced over the past 24 hours, the worst of the winter weather seems to be behind us. Thoughts in Ottawa are turning to spring: maple syrup and rubber boots, to be followed by daffodils and tulips. One early spring tradition is the annual break-up of ice in the Rideau River.
The main channel of the river runs just east of downtown—the more famous Rideau Canal runs through the centre of town—and empties via waterfall into the Ottawa River. To prevent the buildup of huge chunks of ice and subsequent upstream flooding, the City of Ottawa performs controlled blasting each year.
The ice has been prepared… we're just a few days away from this impressive yearly event. Check out this short video by the BBC to see what's about to happen:

Hello. New member here, just posting a story that I wanted some people to read. Hope you like it. I'll be posting at least once a month to continue the story. I did get the idea of a game from the terrific series The Hunger Games, but that's pretty much it, so I guess it would constitute as original? Well, once again, I hope you like it, and I REALLY DO appreciate those who read it, and I appreciate even more those who reply back with criticism, friendly or not.
Games are fun. I like games. I'm good at them. I always have been. However, certain games are terrible. Especially when the stakes are high. Now, I just don't like to play games. I don't know anymore, I think I've gone insane from the stress, tension, and the bets. I'm not writing this down. At least I don't think I am. I don't remember. You're all just a part of my imagination, watching through my eyes, all that happens during this "game". It's called Escape, and rightly so. Of course, you wouldn't understand. Well, you're a part of me, so I guess you would in a way.
I'm just thinking this all right now as the knife that he threw came flying at me. It seemed to be that I was dictating a will, no matter how poorly made it was, it was a still a will. I felt the knife plunge into me, stabbing my stomach. I felt a dull thunk. That thunk in my stomach became much more noticeable as it evolved into a screaming, roaring pain. Blood didn't spew out. It never spews out when something impales you. You have to pull the object out first. Hah… I can't believe I'm informing you guys of this. I guess this last message wasn't terrific… I think you came to be a part of my mind after I saw the knife coming toward me. Well, then I'll tell you what happened from the very beginning. From the beginning of this horrible game. From the beginning of when I contacted the company Brother in order to save my mother with the prize in the end.
In this age of 2098, corruption has spread through the government and companies have risen up to become superpowers, actually rivaling countries. Of course, everyone expected the first to become true at some point, according to Plato, Lord Ancton, and a few others. The power that they had corrupted them. Presidents, executives, senators, CEO's. They all had massive amounts of power, and that completely wrecked them, and they underwent a change for the worse, becoming something like a hydra. Evil, ferocious, and undying. There seemed to be no way to beat this horrific system. Pollution has ravaged the planet, and many of us have been forced to live underground, using air purifying vents that allowed the polluted air to seep in, purified, from the strange, alien outside world. My mother and I were one of those people. The weather in the outside world became very…. tumultuous. It changed swiftly from intensely hot, to freezing cold and at the oddest times. The world was not in the best condition. And wars you ask? What wars. After the war that occurred in 2080, there were no other wars after that. There didn't need to be. After all, at that point, the company Brother came into power. The company was the one who provided all the weapons, funds, and nutrients for EVERY army. Countries were united… but not in a good way. They were unified under fear, spite, and anger. They had no chance but to listen to the domineering company that now seemed to control the world. The war was but a chess piece for the company. A little act that they benefitted from. In fact, I would go so far as to say that they were the ones who caused the war. They had connections all over, representatives in various governments around the country. Those representatives whispered dark lies into the ears of the powerful. Of course, there was no immediate response. It did take nearly a year for those small seeds to sprout. But when it sprouted… oh, it sprouted. Roaring in anger and frustration at the lies those representatives of Brother had told them of political scandals and betrayals that were committed by the opposing countries. It does not take much to manipulate the powerful into thinking everyone is against them. The war has not only ravaged the world, but also the economy. Many of us have become destitute. We could barely afford living fees.
Oh, I guess I forgot to inform you guys about me! Well, this is the most boring part I assume. I'm surprised you don't already know, considering you're part of my sub consciousness. Whatever. My full name is Noah Grenlit. People just call me Noah. I'm 16 years old. I look mostly like my mom except for my brown hair and black eyes. I live alone with my mom, because my dad left me when I was four years old. My mom told me that he was the one who passed down his love of games to me. I'm not anything special…. Or at least I like to think so. Everyone says my intelligence level is ridiculous. That's not true. I have a weird ability. I can see events before they happen. It's not like precognition! It's more like, getting to know someone's thought process and what they're about to do or say. So, I wouldn't know if some complete stranger were about to shoot me or something like that. But, I guess that's about the most special thing about me. Using that odd….. ability, if it can even be called that, I've been winning money for my mom and me so we don't fall into that black hole called poverty. Of course, that money was only enough to survive. I couldn't really buy much else with it. There exists only games for amusement. Now, those games act as sanctuaries, refuges, from this ravaged reality that stands before us. But then, there are prize tournaments, with money as the prize. There's actually a stake, something most people will want to participate for. The rich host these tournaments in order to gain amusement from them, watching the poor desperately use their brains in order to make up for what they lack: funds. The winner and the losers all cry. The winner cries in joy at the prospect of money for his or her family. The losers cry because of another week without sufficient food. I usually participate in Chess tournaments, as it plays out the best for my abilities.
I've managed to pass by so that my mom and I have never actually had a insufficient, or surplus amount of food to eat. We get by better than most people. It's mostly due to me, as Mom became sick two years back. The disease was caused by the destructive pollution, and doctors so far, have found a cure… but it's incredibly expensive. There's no way I could afford the cure just by playing in these silly game tournaments. However, the disease wasn't going to kill my mom…. At least, not yet. And if it starts to, I thought I would be able to earn enough for the cure, but I'm not certain. So, because of her disease, she had to stay in bed most of the time, and can't move around. Now, I'll begin the story of why I contacted Brother.
It was my eighty-fifth Chess tournament, and I remained undefeated. After the game concluded, and my opponent broke down into hysterical tears, I left the room, feeling shame and guilt clawing at my back, desperately making me want to turn around and hand all the money to her. But, shame and guilt weren't enough to allow me to forget my ailing mom. I walked way, through the tunnels that led down to my home. Everyone lived in those underground tunnels, but game tournaments were held in the outside world, in special insulated buildings that did not allow the polluted air to flit in from the outside. I walked through the dimly lit tunnels, going by habit to the door marked 202. For the lock, I pulled out a small vial of my own blood. I dripped a tiny bit into the cylinder lock and the door made the familiar soft whirring noise before it opened. Houses have now become even more anti-theft. Most of the doors required a bit of our blood in order to enter, but they required only a small amount. I walked through the door and saw my mother lying down in bed, coughing raucously. I became instantly worried. Coughing=bad sign. Duh. I rushed over to the kitchen and grabbed a bottle of water from within the fridge. I brought the bottle over to her and handed it to her. My mom was once pretty, no doubt about it. I could see the familiar signs of it within her once long, black, sheen hair. Her skin had become wrinkled, when it was smooth before. Her hands had become gnarled. I hoped that when I earned enough for the cure, she would return to the beautiful state that she was in before the disease struck her. Mom accepted the bottle of water graciously, shakily uncapping the bottle and sipping from it. She handed it back to me, and began to cough once more, this time, blood flying out, onto the bed sheets.
"Mom… did you see the doctor today?" I asked in a concerned tone.
"Yes, dear… and I have something to tell you," she said in a ragged tone of voice.
That didn't sound good. It sounded like she was about to say something morbid that would completely ruin the day. She couldn't be saying what I thought she was going to say, was she?
"The doctor said that the disease has finally begun approaching my heart. It's going to take around four months to completely decimate my internal system and kill me. Basically, in a much more concise way of putting it, I have four months to live."
How cliché can you get? I mean, she was joking right? Right? RIGHT? Such clichés can't possibly exist… but then, I guess that's why they're called clichés. I laughed out loud without even realizing I did that. My mom looked at me with something like pity etched on her face. I should be the one pitying her. After all, she was the one dying from a terrible disease. But, deep down, I knew, that I needed her much more than she needed me. She was my emotional lifeline, the one thing to keep me going in this horrific reality that was created before I was even born. I couldn't let her leave me alone. I would save her… using the only way I knew how. Playing games.
She collapsed into bed, falling into a deep sleep. There was only one game that I could play in order to save her. Every year, Brother sponsors a game called Escape. No one knows what the game contains, as most of the people who enter don't actually come back. I have no idea why though, the game's description did not imply violence or anything of the sort. The game was completely optional and open to everyone. Out of all those who applied, Two hundred people were chosen. There were only eight winners however, in all of the two hundred people. The prize was basically the ultimate prize. One wish, if it was possible to grant it. Brother would grant your wish if you won the game, if it was within reasonable range. If you wished for money, you got a set amount. They gave you one billion dollars. That was enough to support even my posterity! The cure costs around fifty million dollars, and the prize money from Escape would be more than enough. Of course, that's considering if I won. The game lasts for 2 months. Escape was merely a source of entertainment for the people of all countries. People bet on the outcomes, rich and poor. Sometimes, betting on a winner who was very unpopular could easily turn your life around. So, it was probably the one thing that allowed Brother to reap revenues that would exceed that of the combined winners' money if they so wished for it. To enter, you would have to call them, make an appointment to apply for the show, and be judged for a "performance". I would have never participated in this hell game before. This game that allows Brother to earn so much income. This game that seems so innocent at first. Brother has manipulated us, even using this game. Under the guise of being "optional", the company knows that the destitute have no choice; it was their only chance to grab at the lifestyle of the rich.
So, I picked up my phone with one trembling hand.
I dialed the number that all the poor knew by heart.
I did the unthinkable at that time.
I called Brother and made an appointment.
And I willing signed up for a chance at a trip into the Hell that I would later come to regret.

Oslo is a city with a buzzing nightlife. The animation begins early, because it does not last until the following morning, as in some other countries. Jazz, or even house and techno sounds are offered at many of the nightclubs in town. But you can also choose to just go to a bar, which by day serves as a restaurant.
Oslo offers a multitude of bars, cafes or nightclubs. You can even choose between live music, quiet nights with jazz, or the usual fun of typical clubs. Most bars in the city centre are open until 3:00 a.m. and the surprise is that many of them work as restaurants during the day. So do not be surprised if the place where you had lunch is now transformed to drink some cocktails and dance to a rated DJ. In Oslo, they do not mix ages, figuratively speaking. If you want you can go to a bar only for people over 25 it is possible. If you smoke, you have to choose bars with outdoor heating, since the majority of enclosed spaces in Norway are non-smoking and if you can enjoy one of the best views in town while having, go to the Skybar at the top of the Radisson Blu Plaza Hotel. A hundred feet high, this makes this bar one of the highest across Europe. The space is modern with young people. For a quiet evening of jazz, go to Blå. This is the most famous jazz club in the Norwegian capital. However, on the weekends, there are other sounds to be heard at the bar. DJs from around the world perform in this place, with sounds from techno to house music.

How To Prevent A Protective Services Worker From Knocking On Your Door
Never, never, never, never, ever shake a baby.
Shaking a baby can cause permanent brain damage, blindness, even death. Remember, when your baby is crying take a break, don't shake.
Do not punish your children with switches, belts, hose pipes, fly swatters or electrical cords.
These things will hurt your child. They will most always leave a mark. If you do chose to spank your child, only do so on their bottom with the open palm of your hand. You do not want to injure the child. Never spank a child when you are angry. Instead, try time out or take away toys, TV, video games, or computer.
Children do need discipline and limits. Don't be too wishy-washy, too strict, or too easy. Make sure that you are clear with your child about what you expect from them. Be consistent with your expectations.
Make sure children have appropriate supervision.
Many terrible things can happen in the space of a few minutes when there is no responsible adult around to respond to an emergency. If you do leave your children with a baby sitter make sure that person will keep them safe. Older children left in charge of younger children should know who to call in case of an emergency. If you must leave your child alone, know your child's maturing level. Never leave a child 6 or under alone.
Do your best to keep your child clean.
Make sure your child does not have a bad smell about their body. Other children will make fun of and tease or stay away from children who smell bad. The important thing is to make sure that your child always looks clean and cared for.
Always feed your child.
If you have a limited income request that your child is placed on the free lunch program at school. You may also be eligible for Food Assistance through Social Work Services. There are many community services available to help you to supply your family with food and to help you prepare balanced meals.
Do not allow anyone to physically harm your child.
If anyone hurts your child immediately call the police to file a complaint.
Be sure to provide medical and dental care for your children.
If you have no money for medical or dental care, consult the Social Work Services or the Department of Health about possible sources of assistance. Follow the orders of the doctor or dentist and make sure to give any medicine that is prescribed.
Do not get drunk, take illegal drugs, misuse prescribed drugs, or be involved in any illegal activities in the presence of your children.
Parents, or anyone else providing care, should always be sober and clear thinking when they are with children. Never give or allow anyone else to give your child drugs or alcohol.
Communicate and be involved with your child's school.
Respond to notes that are sent home from the school. The school teacher, principal or guidance counselor should always make to listen to your concerns. Staying involved and in touch with the school supports your child's education.
Adults should never fight in front of their children.
There should never be physical fighting in front of the children, around the children, or that the children are aware of. Do your best not to call each other names or verbally argue in front of your children.
Ask for help when you need it.
Talk to someone you can trust. Call Social Work Services (250-5500) or 211 (252-4357) to find out how to access services that might help you.

Download the Win the White House Teachers' Guide, which portions of this lesson have been adapted from courtesy of iCivics. Familiarize yourself with both the game and the Presidential Election Topic Page to plan how you'd like to adapt this lesson plan for your students. You may also want to explore the other related movie topics listed at the top of this page, and spread this lesson out over multiple days.The objective of the Win the White House Game is for students to win a simulated presidential election. They can choose a level (elementary, middle, or high school) to differentiate the experience, and customize their candidate by choosing an avatar, campaign slogan, and political party. Students choose the issues that matter most to them. A full list of issues featured in the game can be found on the last page of the teacher's guide linked above.
At the start of the game, a primary debate doubles as a tutorial and acts as the foundation for students' national campaigns. They gain campaigning skills by spending time and resources in two early competition states, Iowa and New Hampshire. Once they've been selected as their party's candidate, they must work to gain and keep momentum through targeted media campaigns and personal appearances, and also find funding in friendly states. Students' ability to poll will keep them in the know and help guide them to a presidential victory.
Prior to beginning this lesson, plan to divide students into groups of 3-4, and make one photocopy of the Activity page for each group. Cut apart the events listed on the page and put them in envelopes so that each group has one set. Also, make a class set of photocopies of the Graphic Organizer.
Lesson Procedure:
- Activate students' prior knowledge by dividing them into groups and passing out the envelopes you prepared according to the directions above. Challenge students to work collaboratively to put the events in the correct sequence. For an added challenge, don't reveal what process is being sequenced, and have students infer this information themselves.
- After each group has moved their slips of paper around so that they're in the correct order, talk about the activity as a class. What process was being sequenced? Are there any events that could happen simultaneously? Any that could feasibly occur in a different order?
- Ask students to identify which step of the presidential election process our country is currently in. If an election recently occurred, invite students to name the next steps and talk about the cyclical nature of elections, including how potential candidates begin preparing for the election many years in advance.
- Pass out the Graphic Organizer to students and collect the envelopes from them. Encourage students to work with their groups to write down any information they already know.
- Show the Presidential Election Movie. You may want to turn on closed captioning to aid students in comprehension.
- Give students time to revisit their graphic organizers and fill in additional information.
- Project the Win the White House Game and explain that they will have the chance to campaign for presidency through an online game simulation. Guide students through the introduction and instructions. You may also want to project the issues guide on the last page of the Win the White House Teachers' Guide and talk about it. Help students select issues that are important to them personally and talk about why they believe those issues should be key elements of their campaign.
- Allow students to explore the game individually or with a partner for approximately 20-30 minutes.
- Talk with the class about the strategies they used to be successful in the game. How do these strategies parallel the things that presidential candidates need to do in real life in order to win an election? How do candidates need to adapt their strategies for states that are not "friendly"?
- Give students additional time to play the game independently. They can write down new information learned in the graphic organizer. You may want to have them use the back of their papers to reflect on their understanding as a result of the game.
- To extend students' learning, visit The National Student/Parent Mock Election website. There are a number of high-quality lesson resources there to help you set up a mock election in your classroom or even as part of a school-wide effort. Students can participate in debates, issue forums, press conferences, candidate forums and rallies as part of the mock election in their schools and communities.

Lichborne: A final look at the patch 5.4 patch notes for death knights
While we've certainly discussed the patch 5.4 changes for death knights in the past, this week is the big week when patch 5.4 finally comes out and we put it all in action. With that in mind, today will be devoted at look at the patch notes from a death knight point of view and making some quick pronouncements about what we can expect when the servers the come back up.
The short version of the changes is this. All 3 specs are buffed overall, DPS more so than tanking. In PvE, blood is about the same, while unholy and frost specs are close enough together that you can either stick with your usual choice, or go with whatever you have the best weapons for. Unholy is slightly behind frost, but not so much that you'll suffer greatly.
For a more in-depth look at what's changed, read on.

About Me Minimalist
Horrible wig! Looked like something you would wear to a halloween party. The color was horrible, the top of wig was so thin, you could see the cap no matter how you fixed it! Thank god I didnt remove tags, I returned same day I recieved it. First and last Jackie Collins wig I will ever buy. HORRIBLE!
Horrible. I hated it. Looked cheap, very thin on top. Returned same day recieved.
bad quality. returned
This wig is very poor quality. The top of wig was very thin. You could see the lining underneath, and looks very unnatural. I tried it on, it looked like a cheap costume wig.. I returned it the same day I got it because of the quality.

Worst Wig Ever
By tricia
from Dallas, Texas
I have bought several wigs from Paula Young and been very happy with all of them. This is the most expensive I have purchased and it is truly awful. The weave is so thin you can see the cap from every angle...it looks like they've only put in half the number of hairs that they should. It also doesn't sit right on my head because the tags are too low. Unfortunately, because I have always been happy with their wigs I foolishly removed the labels before I tried it on, so I can't return it. Horrible, horrible wig!!!

The College News Volume V. No. 9 BRYN MAWR, PA., NOVEMBER 27, 1918 Price 5 Cents LT. ROBERT NICHOLS SPEAKS ON ENGLAND'S SOLDIER POETS Reads From Works of Friends � As a representative of the young Eng- lish poets who have fallen in battle, Lieut. Robert Nichols, of the Royal Field Artillery, gave a lecture-reading on Brit- ish War Poetry Friday evening in Taylor under the auspices of the English Club. Describing himself as "slightly damaged" through hlR fighting with the Hun, and quite unused to lecturing, Mr. Nichols kept his audience under intense emo- tional strain for nearly two houn> as he read informally from the works of three of his personal friends, Charles Sorley, who was killed in action in May, 191": Robert Graves, who has been severely wounded; and Siegfried SasBOon, who has fought three times In France and once in Palestine. Mr. Nichols has had severe shell shock, and was obliged to remain seated throughout most of his address. Stresses War Poets' Love of Action To emphasize the directness and love of action of the young War Poets, Mr. V*NU!3ol8 described in contrast the inertia of the poetB of the '90's. "who never played football or rode or swam, but pre- ferred to lie on a sofa and think about it." The glory of the 90's was that they rebelled against Victorian sentimentality and Victorian bad technique, that they saw that without truth there could be no poetry; their weakness, that they prided themselves on their exclusiveness and used up their courage in such caprices as wearing lilies in their buttonholes. Through a. long stretch of "lean years," marked by "moral writers" such as Shaw, Barker, Wells and Galsworthy, literature finally got back, by way of the poetical dramas of Masefleld, to real art. The most characteristic emotion of the immediately pre-war period in England was indignation, Mr. Nichols declared. When the war came, it provided some- thing everyone could be horribly indig- nant at. In so far it was a relief. COLLEGE RECEIVES $500,000 LEGACY FROM MRS.

France '19. M. L. Mall "20. Sorley a Poetic Dramatist Charles Sorley, the first of the "young Elizabethans" whom Mr. Nichols de- scribed, gives splendid expression to this fighting mood. During his years at Marl- borough he fought the whole school over his successive "admirations" for Mase- fleld, Hardy and Goethe. Sorley has been called by Masefleld "the greatest literary loss England has sustained in the war." Another English critic prophesied that had he lived he would have been the neatest dramatist since Shakespeare. "Like Emily Bronte," Mr. Nichols com- mented, "he Is almost without adjec- tives." His greatest poem. In Mr. Nich- ol's Judgment, is "Into Action." Mr. Nichols read "Stones," "Lost." showing his love for the rain and the wind, and the "Song to Marching Men": "All the hills and vales along Earth is bursting into song, And the singers are the chaps Who are going to die perhaps. O sing, marching men. Till the valleys ring again. (Continued on page S, column 2.)

VARSITY GAINS 6-3 VICTORY OVER ALL-PHILADELPHIA Four Goals by G. Hearne '19 Seal Visitors' Doom For the third year in succession Varsity has won from All-Philadelphia. In a hotly contested and evenly matched game last Saturday the college team, every member but one playing, defeated their ancient foe, with six goals to their three. The play was full of vim, particularly in the second half. A noticeable absence of long dribbles by the Varsity wings bore witness to the efficiency of the op- posing halfbacks. The main stars of I ho i;ume were G. Hearne '19 and B. Weaver '20 for Varsity, and the Misses McLean, MacMahon, and Townsend for All-Phila- delphia. First Half, 5-2 The first goal was made, after about live minutes of indecisive fighting, by the All -Philadelphia team in a sharp scrag at the goal. A retaliatory tally for Var- sity, made by G. Hearne '19, followed, and then came a period of scrapping, in which Miss McLean, E. Biddle '19. and Miss MacMahon took most active part. Two nore goals were made by G Hearne 1!" from some distance, and one by M. Tyler '19, before Captain Townsend of All- Philadelphia took the ball down for a second score against Varsity. Just before half time was called D. Rogers '20 drib- bled down the field, and O. Herne "19 shot another long goal at a sharp angle. Second Half, 6-3 The second half showed more team- work on Varsity's forward line, and a cor- respondingly stronger All-Philadelphia RECORD OF VICTORY UNBROKEN Varsity's victorious record for this season is unbroken, even by a tie. Five games have been played, against Philadelphia ("ticket Club, the Alum- nae, Lansdowne, Germantown, ana All Philadelphia.

As in the first half the visitors drew first blood, this time with a goal made by Miss Townsend across a circle swept clear of defense by a clever decoy play in the right wing. The remainder of the gfcme was bitterly fought, but un- eventful except for a final goal by D. Rogers '20. During most of the second half the home halfbacks played on the defensive.

Substitutes � Busts in Taylor Come to Life for 19s Reception to Freshmen Cornelia Skinner Recites Margaret Olivia Sage, who died on No- vember 4th In her ninety-first year, left Bryn Mawr College one fifty-second share of her residuary estate, which Is esti- mated by the newspapers as between $700,000 and $800,000, but by Mrs. Sage's executor, Mr. Robert W. de Forest, as about $500,000. in a telegram sent to President Thomas. Other shares go to foreign and home missions, aid, tract and Bible societies, hospitals, museums, libra- ries, Hampton, Tuskegee, and fourteen other colleges in addition to Bryn Mawr �Troy Polytechnic. I'nion, Hamilton, New York University, Syracuse, Yale. Amherst, Williams, Dartmouth, Prince ton, and four women's colleges, Vassar, Wellesley, Smith and Barnard. All these bequests are free from any restriction except the request that they shall be used in some way that shall com- memorate the name of her husband, Rus- sell Sage, who left her this great fortune to dispose of. These splendid charitable and educational girts, amounting roughly to $40,000,000, place Mrs. Sage next to John D. Rockefeller and Andrew Carnegie among American benefactors. It Is gen- erally thought that the Trustees will add this legacy to the general endowment funds of the college, and It Is hoped that the income of about $20,000 of the legacy will be set aside to enable the college to join in the new processors' pension plan of the Carnegie Foundation. It is interesting to recall that during her husband's lifetime Mrs. Sage at- tended commencement at Bryn Mawr and took such a fancy to President Thomas's garden pait| hal that she ordered an ex- act duplicate and wore It for several years, as Mr. Sage gave her a very small dress allowance. Soon after his death she gave President Thomas $20,000 for suffrage work, and let her present the ter- rible financial straits of the five women's colleges�Mount Holyoke, Vassar, Welles- ley, Smith and Bryn Mawr. After this interview President Thomas sent Mrs. Sage a carefully written statement of what an additional endowment of $1,000,- 000 -apiece given to these five colleges would mean for women's education. This statement was never acknowledged and President Thomas says that she feared that she had displeased Mrs. Sage and probably damaged Bryn Mawr's chance of being remembered In her will. Hap- pily this proves not to have been the case: and it may be that President Thomas' presentation of the needB of the women's colleges Influenced Mrs. Sage to include four of the five colleges amc:^ her residuary legatees. At the time that Mrs. Sage's will was made a fifty-second share would have amounted to about $1,000,000 for each college, but gifts of principal during her lifetime considerably reduced the residuary estate. Bryn Mawr is deeply grateful to Mrs. Sage for Its legacy and will always revere her memory. The long-abused Greeks who adorn the corridors of Taylor came Into their own last Saturday evening, forming an orig- inal and well-executed background to the familiar theme of the Bryn Mawr super- women, presented by 1919 In their recep- tion to the Freshmen.

Wildcats work on team building
By ARNE GREEN
Special to The HDN
MANHATTAN -- Tyler Lockett was coming off the best individual receiving game of his career and one of the first things Bill Snyder asked him was what he could do to get better.
No, Snyder wasn't singling out Lockett, whose 237 yards on 13 catches against Texas two weeks ago broke a Kansas State single-game record.
But the fact the Wildcats dropped their Big 12 opener, 31-21, to the Longhorns and fell to 2-2 on the season with a bye week ahead led their coach to try a little team-building exercise.
"I think one of the things that we've done as a whole this week and one of the things that coach Snyder emphasized was just being able to improve day in and day out from Monday to Tuesday to Wednesday, Thursday and Friday and so on, and just get better individually," Lockett said. "Because if we get better individually, then we get better as a unit and get better as a team."
What Snyder wanted was for his players to sort some things out on their own.
"We did a drill in which everyone stepped up and said, 'Here's what I haven't done as well as I need to and here's what I'm going to do to try to help this football team,' those types of things," said Snyder, whose Wildcats travel to Stillwater, Okla., Saturday for a 2:30 p.m. game at Oklahoma State. "Things became forthright (and) came out."
Snyder gave them fair warning, and by most accounts it was well received.
"Guys had thought about it because Coach told us the day before, 'I want you guys to focus on some things that you need to do to get better and help this team get better,' " said junior center B.J. Finney. "Just hearing guys stand up and say things - little things that really would help this team get better - kind of put it in perspective that everybody has something to work on when nobody's there."
Lockett, who is having a breakout season with a league-leading 29 catches for 469 yards, agreed that getting things out in the open had a positive effect.
"Being able to say that, after it comes out of your mouth, you're kind of accountable for some of the things that you say," Lockett said. "So being able to have teammates who heard what you said and being able to push you and get you to do exactly what you said, I think that says a lot and it helps us together as a team at the end of the day."
Sophomore safety Dante Barnett, a first-year starter, liked the timing of the meeting.
"He wanted us to tell our whole teammates our mistakes so we can make sure everyone is improving during the bye week," Barnett said. "I would say my mistakes were having the passion and making sure I was making tackles, because I have been missing a couple of tackles in the past week.
"So I want to improve my tackling this week."
Sophomore defensive end Marquel Bryant said he saw immediate results.
"I have improved," he said. "I feel like there's more I should bring to the plate, that I could give.
"Just this week I've been seeing more guys every day after practice out there working on something - stay after practice, getting more time in. I catch more guys in the film room, watching more film."
Snyder divided the team into four groups - travel squad offense, travel squad defense, scout team offense and scout team defense - for the soul-baring.
"That way everybody had an opportunity to talk," Finney said. "Those are the guys you're going to play with day in and day out.
"There's guys that you have to build that sense of camaraderie with, so you hear everybody that plays with you, is next to you, be able to focus on one thing or one aspect that they need to improve on to help this team get better. It means a lot."
With a Wildcat team still searching for an identity, maybe it will help.
"I think for young players in your program, you'd like for them to have something - a rallying point, perhaps," Snyder said. "I think that's something that has to come from within.
"It's easy for me to say, 'Do this, do that,' etc., but the bottom line at the end of the day is, it's how they feel and what they believe that is really significant to them, and how they respond to it. There's a dialogue about what's our rallying point (and) that's something they define collectively, I think."

I'm not the most romantic gal. I don't need my drink to be pink just because it's Valentine's Day; a well-made Manhattan will always do just fine. (This was confirmed on Friday night, when my husband and I went out for an early V-Day round of rye perfect Manhattans at the original P.J. Clarke's — specifically so we could gawk at this guy; the hubs has not stopped gushing about his "bartender mancrush" since.)
What I wanted to make for today's cocktail was a concoction that simultaneously embraces and flouts every V-Day cliche on sale at Rite Aid: The pink, the chocolate, the faux-coyness, the girly-girlyness, etc. What I came up with is, in effect, a chocolate and blood orange Bellini. It's quite palatable and easy-downing; it's nothing too rough/jaded/forward but it's still got complexity; and it'll getcha toasted long before you realize just how toasted you are.
I also took lots of silly seX-rated pics, just because it's Valentine's Day. Enjoy!

NeoStrata Customer Reviews
Face & Arms - 2/11/2015 2:55:08 PM I have used about everything on the market that fits my budget. This product seems to be the best I have found for my upper arms. I am still waiting on more improvement on my face but did not take a before picture. (We never do) I live in Arizona so I have to apply another moisturizer in the morning after it has been absorbed. I let it work alone at night. Good product!Great product, good size for travel - 1/6/2015 8:08:13 PM The products are all great, I purchase the larger ones for daily use. I use this packaging for travel. The packaging on the small tubes is not good, the sides blow out near the pump, I have purchased two of the small size and happened both times, even when trying to be gentle to prevent it. Change the packaging.Amazing antiwrinkle lotion - 12/9/2014 6:08:26 AM I have used this product for greater than 5 years. I am over 50 now and hardly have any wrinkles by my eyes and upper lip areas. The glycolic acid works very well in this product to reduce fine lines and tighten skin. Extremely happy!Compare to AmLactin - 11/21/2014 6:07:46 AM As prescribed by a dermatologist I've used Amlactin (LacHydrin) for years all over except face. Neostrata Lotion Plus does the same thing without the odor and stickiness. I have terrible sun-damaged skin prone to acne. I use the Lotion on my chest, shoulders arms and neck. For me this is the only cost-effective way to moisturize and smooth those areas.Happy, but ... - 11/13/2014 9:14:09 AM it's too soon to tell for sure. My skin has improved, feels softer, looks better, but as we all know, nothing makes the wrinkles go away permanently! I like Neo Strata products, esp. the Skin Active line. My derm recommended them to me and every time I change to something new, I end up coming back. I use the serum, day and night creams and the eye cream in this line and they work. I just started using this neck cream. I use it in the morning and before bedtime. None of these products irritates my skin which is sometimes sensitive. Definitely recommend.Not Enough. - 10/20/2014 8:31:49 AM I had to return this sunscreen. It was too greasy for me, even though it is marketed as a sunscreen for oily/acne prone skin. The dimethicone/silcone ingredients in this product were too heavy on my skin and made me break out and caused grease production. My skin is very sensitive to dimethicone. I was just hoping since this was made especially for oily skin, it would work well. It did feel nice and smooth (thanks to the dimethicone), but it just sat on top of my skin and gathered oil. If you currently use a skin primer and love that feel, since those are just straight dimethicone, you will probably love this and you could even skip your primer. It just wasn't for my skin. Also, it is VERY small. I use a lot of sunscreen on my face and neck to make sure I'm getting enough coverage and this would not have lasted very long. I will return to my tried 'n' true Neutrogena Clear Face/Break Out Free SPF 30 sunscreen.Love this product!! - 9/14/2014 7:48:55 AM This is one of the better peels that I have used and it's easy to apply. I received a sample from my dermatologist and loved it. My skin looks good and feels soft.Like, but not sure if I love it - 5/20/2014 5:35:42 AM My derm recommended NeoStrata to me and I have been using their products for several months now. I do believe it keeps my skin soft and helps with lines and wrinkles, but, sadly, there is no miracle cure for aging skin :). I do not see any change in the firmness of my skin which this product says it aids in. Overall I like the NeoStrata line very much but still searching for a miracle! Would recommend.Best face wash ever used - 4/3/2014 8:00:41 AM I have been using this face wash for over 3 years now and finally decided to review it. It is a must have. I developed some adult cystic acne spots, which is what prompted me to get it initially. Needless to say, it cleared that problem up and I haven't had any breakouts since. The other added bonuses are smoother skin texture and reduction of fine lines. I get compliments on my skin all the time now that I use this product as well as several other of the products in the Neostrata line. It's a great line and compared to the cost of some RX lines, this one is the best for the price.Hidden treasure - 3/19/2014 7:08:05 AM I highly recommend this to any woman who wears makeup. It is moisturizing but not greasy, and makes the eye area look amazing. -

NeoStrata Customer Reviews
NeoStrata Skin Active Cellular Restoration - Wonderful product, have been using Neostrata for about one year.
NeoStrata Skin Active Intensive Eye Therapy - I requested and got advice from the Skin Store experts for a product that lifts and firms around eyes, also dealing with small wrinkles, that was NOT irritating and counter-indicated for sensitive skin. I have been using this product for fully three weeks now, and have found that the effect--reduced puffiness, "tighter" skin, and minimizing look of wrinkles--was almost immediate! I couldn't have been more pleased. Excellent hydration--my make-up goes on better--and NO irritation. I love it. Thanks, SS experts!
NeoStrata Lotion Plus AHA 15 - My dermatologist told me over a decade to use this product on my hands and neck (to keep it taut), and I listened. It can discolor some items (washcloths, pillow cases), but it is an effective and helpful product that goes recommended.
NeoStrata Face Cream Plus AHA 15 - I was introduced to the product through Doc's office. I am 64 and I get compliments all the time about how great my skin looks. I have to give genes some credit but Neostrata is absolutely amazing. I panic when I get low on the product.
NeoStrata Skin Active Matrix Support SPF 30 - I travel to Texas and Florida regularly - this moisturizer provides excellent SPF protection without any tinge of zinc, or other odd color, and is fragrance free. I combine this product with Jane Iredale's BB Cream and it leaves my skin glowing. This product hits the middle in terms of weight - not heavy, not light. Matrix Support SPF 30 is my current "fav" :)
NeoStrata Bio-Hydrating Cream - PHA 15 - I have used this for about a year and think it's great. My skin is very clear. I use it mostly at night unless I know I'm not going to be wearing makeup. I sometimes notice my makeup looking a little cakey so I use the PHA10 Ultra Moisturizing Face Cream when I wear makeup. Great combination!

"These socks were for a girls kickball team for ages 4 to 6. The small size fits them well, and they really love the colorful stars. The socks are well made, and well worth the price. I received them before the promised delivery date, good job Epic!" (E3207)
"I wanted to let you know that your company EXCEEDED my expectations with your uniforms. I was a little nervous about what $13.00 would buy but we are thrilled. I had the sample uniforms at soccer assessments on Saturday and I could not believe how excited the parents and my kids are about these uniforms. I also presented the uniforms to the board and they were thrilled! I really think this will help us to put the image we want for our league out there. I will be placing my order either at the end of this week or I will email my order to you over the weekend. Our sponsors are also loving the choices for colors and how the uniforms look and they have helped us to bring in several new sponsors as word is spreading that we are upgrading our league. Anyway, just wanted you to know how pleased we all are." (E190)
"Very nice throat protector. It looks and has lasted well. I like the plastic straps with snap buttons which seem to last longer than the leather straps commonly used on other protectors. I would recommend it and I would buy it again if needed." (E8061)

The new Twin Tip Range 2014 is online
North Kiteboarding twin tip boards are produced in a high-tech snowboard and kiteboard factory in Austria. Premium products are our aim, therefore only the best materials and cutting edge technology are applied to our twin tips. All twin tip cores are made from farm-grown Paulownia wood. To get light and durable boards, they are milled exactly to within 0.1 mm to the mould, to minimise and control the amount of glue used in each board.
Key Construction Features:
— 3D Contour Deck: Precisely dictates and controls the flex behaviour over the entire length of the board
— Soft tip area combined with stiff torsional flex: Responsible for aggressive edging and early planing
— Super Stiff Centre: Ensures massive, aggressive pop for powered tricks & jumps
— The Centre Responsive Flex: Stiffness of centre part is reduced to dampen slaps and hits caused by choppy water
TeXtreme® 2014
High Performance Carbon Technology
— Spread tow technology Spread Tow Fabrics
— The Carbon spread tow of the Formula 1 Champions!
Key Benefits
— Unique carbon fibre technology noticeable improves your boards' performance
— 20% lighter than conventional carbon reinforcements
— Unprecedented mechanical performance
— Superior surface finish
The patented TeXtreme® spread tow STF structure makes the composite 20% lighter, with an unprecedented increase in overall performance. This is based on the fact that the fibres are straighter in TeXtreme® than in any standard conventional carbon reinforcements. As a result of the optimized fibre structure, the end product will hold a larger amount of carbon fibres, at a minimum size and weight. The outcome of this unique technology when applied to kiteboarding: A board with high fibre volume content, low weight and enhanced strength! How does it affect your riding experience
— The upwind ability is recognisably improved.
— The handling and feel of the board is definitely
unique! TeXtreme boards feel much smoother than traditional boards.

— TeXtreme® boards are just like your own magic carpet; the board does all the work for you!
The Select and the Spike Textreme are the high performance boards in which this amazing technology is used at the moment.

The North Kiteboarding Twintip range can be divided into three different groups of twintip boards due to the applied construction technology
— Standard Construction
— Premium Constuction
— High Performance Construction


text: 4 If you loved Oblivion you will like this for sure :-)dm47red | 06/05/2014 | See all dm47red's reviews (8)As reviews are not always helpful to me as they do not say about the basic play, which people like me want to know.From the moment you put the game on you get step by step help and for me thats essential as not long ago i bought white knight chronicles and it has no step by step tutorial and so was a waste of my money as i am unable to play it. This explains as all games should when something new is found or come accross and what you should do, so keep a pad and pen handy as i forget lolAlso i have zero control of direction etc when i am fighting so i want to be able to frantically press the attack button and have a good chance of killing and with this you do and the other members of your group help. So this is a good game for people like me who do not have the memory and dexterity to press certain buttons in order lolHuge choice of characters to pick and you can choose a friend to accompany you through out the game also so can be a fighter but have your second as a mage or archer type so cover your bases. You also can choose a further 2 characters to join your group and these final 2 can be changed throught the game. So makes for a very varied and ever changing game.The only thing this game does not have is a wait option so you can tell your group members to say wait here so you can solo some things like a set mission or just to collect treasure so you can collect it all and not have them all clambering for it also lol.There is no travel , so if your at one end of the map you have to walk to the other end lol there are very rare items that you can use to fast travel but they are rare and prescious. So you tend to go through the same places over and over again with the same enemies.The graphics are good and there is days and days of playability with this game. Oblivion will always be my fave and i have been playing that for years and loving it. But this is playable and good and will give me something to alternate with.Quests are logical and so are do able, not ;ike some games where if you can't work it out then tough you don't progress.It is a great game for just losing yourself in for an evening and into the early hours and then at 6am thinking oh heck i better go to bed hee hee.It is in a similar guise to oblivion but that it the best of games so will never ever be beaten, but this is enjoyable and fun and i like it and can't put it down lolSo enjoy :-)

If you're a professional photographer, your pictures are both your lifeblood and the most expensive part of your business. Since the size of photos today can quickly fill up even large storage devices, you can easily spend thousands of dollars on external drives and other storage media. In addition to costing more money, managing all that external storage is time consuming and error prone. It's easy to misplace an important photo just when a customer wants one in a hurry. Sharing photos with clients is also a problem, as it's usually difficult to email more than one or two photos at a time.
As a professional, you need a backup plan for all your photos in the event of disaster, and making separate copies of everything you own and storing it in another location is costly and time consuming.
Wouldn't you rather be spending more time with your clients rather than making backups of everything you own? And wouldn't you rather be making more money off each photo instead of spending it on storage? Online storage and large file-sharing options such as Dropbox can help, but many of these plans lack the security required by professionals. As a professional photographer, you don't want your photos splashed all over the Internet for everyone to see. To ensure the confidentiality of your clients, you need something more.
Let TappIn enter the picture! Tappin provides a secure and affordable alternative to Dropbox and other online solutions. With TappIn, you can upload all your photos to a secure environment that allows you to easily share large files with your customers for viewing, modification, and selection. Tappin also helps take care of your backup worries and can be part of an affordable and simple disaster recovery plan. In addition, if you need more storage, you can upgrade your plan instantly with a few mouse clicks instead of ordering new storage devices online and waiting for them to show up or wasting your time running to your local bricks and mortar store.
With all that TappIn has to offer, the best part is the price! In addition to being more efficient and effective, TappIn's prices will be much lower than buying your own storage. The savings in both time and money will make your photography business more profitable and allow you to expand your business or upgrade your equipment. To get started on your savings or to get more information, visit Tappin.com for a FREE 30-Day TRIAL, or call us at 210 308-3267 today!

Spinal fusion is surgery to permanently join together two or more bones in the spine so there is no movement between them. These bones are called vertebrae.
You will be asleep and feel no pain (general anesthesia).
The doctor will make a surgical cut (incision) to view the spine. Other surgery, such as a diskectomy , laminectomy , or a foraminotomy , is almost always done first. Spinal fusion may be done:
The surgeon will use a graft (such as bone) to hold (or fuse) the bones together permanently. There are several ways of fusing vertebrae together:
The surgeon may get the bone graft from different places:
The vertebrae may also fixed together with rods, screws, plates, or cages. They are used to keep the vertebrae from moving until the bone grafts are fully healed.
Surgery can take 3 to 4 hours.
Vertebral interbody fusion; Posterior spinal fusion; Arthrodesis; Anterior spinal fusion; Spine surgery - spinal fusion; Low back pain - fusion; Herniated disk - fusion
Spinal fusion is most often done along with other surgical procedures of the spine. It may be done:
Spinal fusion may be done if you have:
You and your doctor can decide when you need to have surgery.
Risks of this surgery include:
Tell your doctor or nurse what medicines you are taking. These include medicines, herbs, and supplements you bought without a prescription.
During the days before the surgery:
On the day of the surgery:
You will stay in the hospital for 3 to 4 days after surgery.
You will receive pain medicines in the hospital. You may take pain medicine by mouth or have a shot or an intravenous line (IV). You may have a pump that allows you to control how much pain medicine you get.
You will be taught how to move properly and how to sit, stand, and walk. You will be told to use a "log-rolling" technique when getting out of bed. This means that you move your entire body at once, without twisting your spine.
You may not be able to eat for 2 to 3 days. You will be given nutrients through an IV. When you leave the hospital, you may need to wear a back brace or cast.
Your healthcare team will tell you how to take care of yourself at home after spine surgery . Follow instructions on how to take care of your back at home .
If you had chronic back pain before surgery, you will likely still have some pain afterward. Spinal fusion is unlikely to take away all your pain and other symptoms.
It is hard for a surgeon to predict which patients will improve and how much relief surgery will provide, even when using MRI scans or other tests.
Losing weight and getting exercise increases your chances of feeling better.
Future spine problems are possible after spine surgery. After spinal fusion, the area that was fused together can no longer move. Therefore, the spinal column above and below the fusion are more likely to be stressed when the spine moves, and may have problems later on.
