Project Predator, targeting the illegal poaching and trade in Asian "big cats", was launched during the 80th INTERPOL General Assembly (2011), in Hanoi, Vietnam.
As one of the 13 tiger-range countries, Vietnam affords its tigers the highest levels of protection under law. The launch of the project in this country provided a solid platform for INTERPOL's engagement in the response to tiger crime and other forms of wildlife crime in the region. Project Predator is funded primarily by the United States Agency for International Development (USAID).
The issues
Tigers are on the brink of extinction. The greatest threat comes from criminals who control an illegal trade spanning countries and continents. Tigers and other Asian big cats are illegally killed or poached due to the high value of their fur on the black market, and the demand for their body parts for traditional medicines.
Profits produced from these illegal activities are also intricately linked to fraud, money laundering, tax evasion, other kinds of smuggling, violence and extortion. The illegal trade in tigers is one of the most high profile, destructive and urgent forms of wildlife crime.
The response
The enforcement response needs to employ advanced, intelligence-led methods of investigation and the engagement of the whole criminal justice system. The response must target the individuals and networks who control this lucrative trade, bring them to justice, and seize any assets obtained through their crimes.
Project Predator supports and enhances the governance and law enforcement capacity for the conservation of Asian big cats and will develop a global picture of the criminal activity undermining ongoing conservation efforts.
The project's fundamental activities include:
- Generating a higher use of genetic information, and the potential development of a regional platform of tiger genetic fingerprints for conservation management and wildlife enforcement in the region;
- Supporting national, regional and international law enforcement efforts with new and innovative mechanisms that will enhance the ability of law enforcement officers to address Asian big cat crime;
- Fostering communication, coordination and cooperation between enforcement experts and managers from Asian big cat range countries;
- Organizing collaborative, high-level international efforts to improve political will and transform this will into departmental support;
- Hosting training courses and investigative planning meetings;
- Developing a strategic and tactical analytic report on tiger crime;
- Assisting member countries in the organization of National Environmental Security Seminars (NESSs) and the establishment of National Environmental Security Task Forces (NESTs);
- Gathering, analysing and sharing intelligence;
- Stimulating intelligence-led investigations and enforcement activities;
- Providing assistance for the forensic processing of poaching scenes and seizure sites;
- Filling the gaps between arrests, intelligence-led investigations and prosecutions;
- Exploring new partnerships while drawing upon national and international strengths, resources and expertise;
- Strengthening the South Asia Wildlife Enforcement Network (SAWEN) as an institution and connecting it to I-24/7, INTERPOL's secure global police communications network.
World leaders must acknowledge that if we cannot save the tiger, there is little hope of success in tackling other environmental challenges. Project Predator is not limited to the protection of tigers, but extends to the protection of all Asian big cats, since these species face similar threats.
Protecting tigers will protect other Asian big cat populations as well, because the skins and body parts of leopards, snow leopards, clouded leopards and Asiatic lions are traded in the same manner as tiger parts.

Save the Berkeley Post Office is calling for a rally at 11:30 a.m. on Wednesday, November 14 in front of the historic Allston Way post office to speak out for a real public meeting on a date that works for the community.
Dave Welsh of Save the Berkeley Post Office says "We demand not only that the proposed sale of Berkeley's public post office be cancelled, but that the community meeting be rescheduled from Nov. 20 to a date after the first of the year."
Community activist Ying Lee added that "The U.S.Postal Service chose a date that they hoped would result in low attendance. It mocks the meaning of a true "Community Meeting". This is part of a larger pattern of procedural steps designed to sabotage community organizing."
On Monday, October 29th, the United States Postal Service announced the date of the final hearing for the sale of Berkeley's historic main Post Office. At a packed hearing in mid-September, the public was assured that the Postal Service would work with the City of Berkeley to set a date that would allow full community participation. Instead, Postal Service staff set the final public hearing on a date when many citizens will be away, the Tuesday night before Thanksgiving.
The rally will be held from 11:30 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. on Wednesday, November 14, 2012, starting at the Downtown Berkeley Post Office, 2000 Allston Way. This rally will OPPOSE the November 20 'community meeting date'.

EXCL Portfolio Development—FAQs
Application Deadlines
Applications for the Prior Learning program must be submitted two weeks prior to the start date of the session in which you plan to enroll. For specific session dates, please view the online Course Schedule.
Select the link below to read about a specific area or print the entire FAQ list.
Get answers to questions about:
Should I Enroll in Portfolio?
Is Portfolio a good choice for me?
Portfolio can help you meet your degree requirements faster and at a lower cost than completing classroom courses. Talk with your advisor about how Portfolio can fit into your degree program. Review Is Portfolio Assessment Right for You? or call Prior Learning at 240-684-2890 or 800-888-UMUC (8682), ext. 2890 to decide whether Portfolio is the best option for you.
Can I graduate with only Portfolio credits?
No. You must complete a minimum of 15 graded semester hours to be eligible for graduation. You may earn a maximum of 30 credits through experiential learning, which includes the Portfolio, course challenge exams and Co-operative Education.
How are Portfolio credits used in my degree?
Credits awarded through Portfolio can fulfill major (1/2 of courses needed to fulfill major can be used), minor (1/2 of courses needed to fulfill minor can be used), elective or general education requirements. Contact your academic advisor to assist you in determining the academic areas in which portfolio credits might be best used.
Can I get credit for courses that are not in my degree plan?
Perhaps, but the purpose of taking EXCL 301 is to help you earn your degree by translating what you already know into coursework needed for your degree. One of the first things to do is to become familiar with the Degree Planning Worksheet for your intended degree.
When is the best time to enroll in Portfolio?
You may enroll at any time in your program, although it is usually best to take the EXCL 301 course early in your UMUC career. We strongly suggest you complete at least 3 credits at UMUC before enrolling in the Portfolio program. This will give you time to meet with your advisor and ensure that Portfolio is right for you.
How do I apply?
Access the Portfolio application online. Applications must be received no later than two weeks before the beginning of the semester to allow time for processing.
What do I need to do to participate?
To participate in Portfolio, you must
- Have an official evaluation/degree progress report that is no more than six months old
- Show evidence of a college-level writing course or a satisfactory score on the writing placement test
- Have completed at least 3 credits at UMUC with a GPA of 2.0 or higher, or 30 transferred credits
- Be currently enrolled at UMUC and in good academic standing
- Be pursuing an undergraduate degree—Portfolio is unavailable at the graduate level.
What is the timeline for participation?
Once you have met all eligibility requirements, you will be contacted, and you may register for EXCL 301, a3-credit course that helps you complete your Portfolio by the end of the session. Once the Portfolio is accepted by the course instructor, evaluation may take up to three months. When the evaluation is complete, you will receive a notice from the Office of Experiential Learning about your actual credit award.An updated degree progress report with those courses awarded will be available in your student portal.
In what formats are classes offered?
EXCL 301 is available online or on-site. Classroom locations are listed in the course schedule for the current semester.
Completing the Portfolio
What goes into a Portfolio?
The Portfolio is a collection of materials that demonstrates what you have learned, where you learned it and how that learning equates to college-level learning. In written narratives and with supporting documentation, parallels are made between stated course objectives as shown on course syllabi and your learning through work, volunteer activities or other experiences. The EXCL 301 course guides you through the creation of your Portfolio.
Are syllabi available for courses that I may want to target?
Syllabi for many of the most frequently challenged UMUC courses are available to enrolled students from the Office of Prior Learning. All requests for syllabi should be sent via email to email@example.com.
How can I prepare for the Portfolio process?
It is crucial to meet with your advisor and discuss EXCL 301. You can also look at the UMUC catalog and make a list of different learning experiences you have had since high school and note who can provide documentation of those experiences.
What does documentation consist of? Can I get a head start on it?
There are many kinds of documentation, most of which fall into two categories: direct and indirect. Direct documentation includes presentation of materials like computer programs you have written, art you have created or other things you have done, produced or accomplished directly. Indirect documentation includes letters from supervisors detailing your learning, newspaper articles explaining or listing your accomplishments or other documentation used to summarize the learning you have acquired.Documentation can also include lists of books you read to become competent in a certain area, attendance certificates from training events or other items that support your claims for credit.
This sounds like a lot of work! How can I get help?
The EXCL 301 course guides you through the process of learning about and creating an Experiential Portfolio. The faculty members teaching the course are experienced and have helped hundreds of students like you complete the process. In addition, online courses have dedicated writing —who have already been through the Portfolio process—to help you every step of the way.
Can I target all courses?
Only courses listed in the current catalogue can be targeted, with the exception of the following: EDCP100, LIBS150; COOP 486 A or B, Special topics and CAPL398A. All Capstone courses cannot be targeted for EXCL or Course Challenge credit.Please note that the academic departments reserve the right to add courses to this list.
The EXCL 301 Course
When is the best time to enroll in the course?
The class is offered every semester in both on-site and online formats. The best time to enroll depends on your schedule; since EXCL 301 is an intensive course, we strongly suggest that you take no more than one other class while you complete EXCL 301.
What skills do I need to be successful?
To complete EXCL 301 within one semester, good time management and organizational skills will be valuable. EXCL 301 is a writing-intensive course and college-level writing skills are required.
Can I take EXCL 301 more than once?
Yes. Students who successfully complete EXCL 301 can enroll in the supplemental EXCL 001 course.
Is EXCL 301 graded?
If you complete EXCL 301 and submit a Portfolio, you receive an S (Satisfactory) grade, which does not affect your grade-point average. For credit you earn through Portfolio evaluation, you will also receive an S grade.
Eligibility and Application
What are the eligibility requirements?
To participate in Portfolio, students must:
- Have an official evaluation/degree progress report that is no more than six months old
- Show evidence of a college-level writing course or a satisfactory score on the writing placement test
- Have completed at least 3 credits at UMUC with a GPA of 2.0 or higher, or 30 transferred credits*
- Be currently enrolled at UMUC and in good academic standing
- Be pursuing an undergraduate degree—Portfolio is unavailable at the graduate level.
* Please note that the change to the residency credit/transfer credit requirement takes effect Fall 2011.
What if I apply now and can't register for the class?
Students who apply but cannot register must reapply in the future, however the application fee is not charged until a student is registered.
Credit Awards
Can I use only Portfolio credits to graduate?
No. A minimum of 15 semester hours in graded classes must be completed to graduate. Portfolio credits do not receive a grade, and you must have a minimum grade-point average of 2.0 to graduate.
How much credit can I earn?
Credit awards depend on many things, including how well you document your learning, how well your learning fits into your degree plan and previous transfer credits. It is possible to earn up to 30 credits through experiential learning (15 for the second bachelor's degree), which includes American Council on Education (ACE), military and other sources. Review the UMUC transfer credit policies for more information.
How much credit am I guaranteed to earn?
If you pass the course and complete a Portfolio that is accepted by your instructor, you will earn 3 credits for the course. There is no guarantee that you will receive additional credit from evaluation of your Portfolio. However, the historical credit award averages between 15 and 18 credits.
How is my Portfolio evaluated for credit?
Trained faculty advisors—experts in the academic area—review Portfolios. Evaluation is a complex process that takes into account not only how well you describe what you have learned, but also how well your documentation supports those descriptions.
Can Portfolio credits be used toward fulfilling state certification requirements for teaching or other careers?
Policies are determined by the agency issuing the certification. Please check with your appropriate state or county agency for more information.
What if I took a Portfolio course at another school?
Transfer policies can affect how much credit can be earned through Portfolio. Check with your advisor before enrolling.
What if I don't agree with my credit award?
If you are certain your award is incorrect you can request an appeal within 30 days of receiving an evaluation report. All appeals request must be in writing and directed to the Prior Learning office.

Mentor Graphics Verifies Clock-Domain Crossing Solution for Sun Microsystems UltraSPARC T1 Processor
WILSONVILLE, Ore., April 25, 2006 - Mentor Graphics Corporation (Nasdaq: MENT) today announced its 0-In{reg} Clock-Domain Crossing (CDC) technology was used in the design of Sun Microsystems' breakthrough UltraSPARC{reg} T1™ processor, which Sun recently announced. The UltraSPARC T1 processor with patented CoolThreads technology is an eight-core 64-bit, 32-thread processor design which includes open-source hardware and software specifications.
Mentor Graphics{reg} 0-In CDC technology was critical to Sun's overall verification methodology. The processor design maximizes performance and lowers power consumption through an innovative multi-clock architecture in which relatively slow cores share an onboard memory controller and I/O subsystem through a high speed crossbar switch. The result is high throughput with low memory latency and low power. Sun selected the 0-In CDC technology because of its unique ability to thoroughly check ratioed synchronous clocks and lock-up latches as well as asynchronous clocks.
Sun looked at a variety of options to address metastability and other CDC-related issues and decided to use formal verification techniques. After evaluating available technologies, they selected the Mentor Graphics 0-In CDC solution. Close collaboration between Mentor and Sun ensured that the design was free of CDC problems and reached verification closure on schedule.
"We had two or three months to formally verify the crossings," stated Eugena Talvola, senior verification engineer for the Formal Technologies Group at Sun. "Adding to the pressure was the fact that CDC verification was a new area for us. We needed certain features that nobody had. The 0-In CDC product implemented checking for ratioed synchronous clocks and lock-up latches for us. The Mentor team worked with our R&D staff to implement it on a fairly short notice, in time to check the chip."
The UltraSPARC T1 processor had a few hundred ratioed synchronous clocks--synchronous clocks with different frequencies. Ratioed synchronous clocks allow the cores to be much more portable because the memory controller and the I/O subsystem can be quickly modified to meet new requirements or standards without changing the core. The 0-In CDC tool checked lock-up latches used for production testing. Lock-up latches were inserted to delay certain branches of the clock tree by half a cycle. Clock domains can be defined by the user, so clock A and clock B may be branches of the same clock tree if necessary. This is usually used to make sure that a scan chain does not pass through more than one bit per shift cycle due to clock skew. Because the 0-In CDC tool could detect where the clock domain crossings were, it was able to check whether the lock-up latches were in place.
"Sun and Mentor's 0-In team have had a solid working relationship and we are proud of being a vital contributor to the UltraSPARC T1 processor," said Steve White, general manager of Mentor Graphics 0-In functional verification business unit. "We foresee further collaborations with Sun and its OpenSPARC initiative as they continue to deliver innovative open-source multi-threading technologies to the industry."

The Superintendent of Documents (SuDocs) is the official at the U.S. Government Printing Office (GPO) with the responsibly for five major programs:
- The Federal Depository Library Program (FDLP)
- Cataloging and Indexing Program
- By Law Program
- International Exchange Service (IES)
- GPO Sales Program
The Cataloging and Indexing Program
The Cataloging and Indexing Program is a "comprehensive index of public documents," including "every document issued or published … not confidential in character." This is derived from the statutory requirements for cataloging and indexing codified at 44 U.S.C. §§1710-1711 and 44 U.S.C. §4101(a).
The goal of the Cataloging and Indexing Program is to develop a comprehensive and authoritative national bibliography of U.S. Government publications to increase the visibility and use of Government information products, and to develop a premier destination for information searchers. The Catalog of U.S. Government Publications (CGP) contains bibliographic records for U.S. Government publications generated by the U.S. Government Printing Office (GPO) since July 1976. Many of the records within the CGP contain direct links to publications available online. The catalog is updated daily with new and historical publication records, making the CGP the central point for locating new and historical Government publications.
Federal depository libraries interested in working with GPO to exchange cataloging records, work together to catalog older materials, or on other cataloging related project are encouraged to review the Cooperative Cataloging Guidelines and submit a partnership inquiry.

Patch 4.3: Raid Finder feature preview
The Raid Finder will also require at least one player to queue as a raid leader volunteer, so they can be saddled with the responsibility of marking targets, choosing tanks and off tanks, and so on. A little part of my soul blackens every time I think about how much patience would be required to lead a 25-man raid PUG.
Hop after the break to check out the full Raid Finder Q&A.
So what is the Raid Finder? It will be a brand new grouping feature that superficially works much like the Dungeon Finder. Instead of five-player dungeons, the Raid Finder is designed to help players quickly and easily form a pick-up raid for a specially tuned version of the current tier of raid content: the Dragon Soul raid. It's not intended to replace organized raiding though. You'll still need friends and guild members to help you conquer the toughest raiding challenges that patch 4.3 has to offer.
As we currently plan to roll out the Raid Finder feature in patch 4.3, level-85 players will be able to use it to access a 25-player version of the Dragon Soul raid dungeon, which will culminate in a glorious battle against Deathwing himself. Dragon Soul will be split into three different difficulties. The Raid Finder provides access to a new tier of difficulty, which in this case has split the raid into two wings, each containing four boss encounters. Meanwhile, raiders will still need to join with friends and guildmates to face the more challenging normal and heroic versions of the raid, since the Raid Finder cannot be used to access those higher difficulty levels. Naturally, because they're harder to defeat, the normal and heroic version of Dragon Soul will drop more powerful lootalong with prestigious rewards such as achievements, titles, and epic mounts. Rich rewards still await those who face the Raid Finder version, which we hope will introduce the thrills and epic experience of raiding to a broader audience than ever before.
You can access the Raid Finder through the 'Raid' button in the menu at the bottom of the default user interface. The Raid Finder should feel familiar to Dungeon Finder users. Just fire it up, select your class role, click the 'Find Raid' button, and get ready to face Deathwing's jaw of doom.
Q. Raids aren't dungeons. Who will keep things organized?
A. A Raid Finder raid will require someone to queue as leader. The Raid Finder leader will have a very limited set of powers and cannot change loot type, nor do they have the ability to arbitrarily kick people from the raid. They do have the ability to mark targets and use /raid warning, and can promote other players to be leads as well. To be most successful, each Raid Finder group should have at least one leader who will explain the fights, assign raid markers, and make the tough calls, like who the main tank and off-tanks are.
Q. How will loot be distributed?
A. Automatic rolls and the Need Before Greed loot rules will apply in Raid Finder raids, just as they do in Dungeon Finder instances. Also, while Dungeon Finder raids aren't locked, you are only eligible for loot from a boss once per week. This means that if you were present for the defeat of a boss, whether you receive loot or not, then you will automatically pass on loot that drops during later attempts on that boss during the same week.
Q. How will Raid Finder loot differ?
A. Loot acquired through the Raid Finder, including tier set pieces, will be of a lower item level than items acquired from normal or heroic mode versions of the Dragon Soul raid, and its appearance may differ. Also, there are certain items, as well as components for legendary weapons, which will not drop in Raid Finder raids. While individual bosses will not yield Valor Points as they would in other versions of the raid, you can still earn 250 Valor Points for beating the final boss in each wing of the instance.
Tier armor that drops in Raid Finder raids still provides set bonuses, and those bonuses are compatible with the higher item level versions of the armor available in the normal and heroic mode versions of the raid. None of these tier sets will be available for purchase from a vendor via Valor Points.
Q. Will there be an item level requirement to use the Raid Finder?
A. Yes, accessing raids via the Raid Finder will require that participating characters be level 85 and have attained a certain item level, to help ensure that they are prepared for the content they'll be facing.
Q. Will the Raid Finder be cross-realm?
A. Yes, the Raid Finder will draw players from all realms. As with the Dungeon Finder, it will place some priority on grouping players from the same realm, though not at the cost of increased queue times.
Q. What kind of raid composition will the Raid Finder create?
A. Each Raid Finder raid will include two tanks, six healers, and seventeen damage dealers. As the raid is assembled, the Raid Finder will attempt to balance the group according to armor type, which should help ensure a healthy mix of melee and ranged dps.
Q. Why 25-player only?
A. A 25-player group is actually easier and faster to fill than a smaller group would be, and allows for greater flexibility in raid creation, all of which will help contribute to lower queue times. Also, 25-player raids are less subject to issues with composition or player connectivity.
The Raid Finder version of the Dragon Soul raid will be designed with pick-up raiding in mind. Normal and heroic difficulties will require the greater organization and teamwork found in guild raid groups.
Q. Will I get Call to Arms benefits when using the Raid Finder?
A. We don't currently plan to apply Call to Arms benefits to the Raid Finder, though that may change in the future.
Q. Will I be locked to a raid I join through the Raid Finder?
A. Since the Raid Finder only offers access exclusively to a specially tuned version of the Dragon Soul raid instance, instance locks will not be enforced for that version. Instance locks will still be enforced for the normal and heroic versions of the raid.
Q. Can I queue with my friends in a party or raid?
A. Yes, you can queue for the Raid Finder individually, in a party, or in a raid. The Raid Finder can be a great tool to help fill those last few slots in a raid.
Q. I'm a dedicated raider with an organized group, what good is the Raid Finder to me?
A. Since instance locks aren't in play, Raid Finder raids could provide a way for dedicated raiders to gear up alternate characters, fill gaps in their itemization, finish off elusive set bonuses, or just have some fun while preparing to face the normal or heroic version of the raid on the next reset.
Q. Why aren't other raids available?
A. The Raid Finder is intended to help players experience the current tier of content.Also, many older raids don't require a full complement of raiders, making the Raid Finder unnecessary. This is also the first rollout of the feature and we decided to start things simple, rather than potentially delay the feature's introduction.
If the Raid Finder proves popular, more raid instances may be added to it in the future.
Q. Will Vote Kick still work in the Raid Finder?
A. Yes, though many of the same requirements and restrictions will be in place. For example, kicking too many times can result in a Vote Kick cooldown. Also, the thresholds are different, and several players will need to agree on kicking a candidate before the vote begins. Successful kick votes will require a significant number of Yes votes to pass.
Q. What happens if I leave a Raid Finder raid before it's over?
A. Players who leave the Raid prematurely will receive a Deserter Debuff, though it will likely be of longer duration than the one applied to users of the Dungeon Finder. This debuff will only apply to the Raid Finder system.
Brace yourselves for what could be some of most exciting updates to the game recently with patch 4.3. Review the official patch notes, and then dig into what's ahead: new item storage options, cross-realm raiding, cosmetic armor skinning and your chance to battle the mighty Deathwing -- from astride his back!

Signal Shed, Wallowa County, Ore.
Built with recycled materials, the structure features an 8-foot-tall barn door, a wood stove, and laminate floors.
Ryan Lingard
The designer treated the shed with a dark stain to help it hide in the forest.
Built on a series of piers to minimize site disturbance, this off-the-grid shed is a study in simplicity and thrift.
With no utility connections, the shed is designed for serious roughing it.
The kitchen is as sparse as the rest of the shed, with Ikea cabinets and plywood wall paneling.
The floor plan.
The Signal Shed proves that a great sum of money isn't necessary for good architecture. Designer Ryan Lingard built the outdoor adventure post largely with recycled products—windows, hardware, siding—and set the structure on piers to limit site disturbance. Large sliding doors create a connection to the interior, and operable rain screen shutters protect the windows. A dark stain helps the shed blend in with the forest. One judge lauded its "absence of almost everything," while another commented: "It sets apart and fits well with the land."

5 Quick Ways to Clean Up Before Guests Arrive
You need to be prepared for surprise visits, especially during the holidays: Cousins, friends, or neighbors may just drop in. Erika Lenkert, author of The Last-Minute Party Girl, shares her suggestions for getting your home ready for guests in 30 minutes (or less).
By Paula Derrow

1. Stealth Clean
Focus on rooms you'll be using (living room, kitchen, and bathroom), then close the doors literally on the rest. Corral stray gadgets, unopened mail, and other domestic detritus in a laundry bin to stow in a closet. Slip a sock on your hand for a swift dust-down. Hide dishes in the dishwasher or a basket beneath the sink to be dealt with in the A.M. Then smile: No one will ever know.
2. Go for the Glow
Turn off harsh overheads and use lamps or creative groupings of tiny tealights, or swap a few ordinary bulbs for pink LEDs they're flattering to every skin tone (and way easier than painting your living room coral).
How to Throw Together a Last-Minute Feast
3. Freshen Up the Bathroom
Cluster pillar candles in different sizes on shelves. Pipe in soothing music (the X-Mini II palm-size speaker hooks up to most mobile players).
4. Decorate by Numbers
Pull together a grouping of similar objects (think blue glass vases, an array of shells, silver-framed photos), then use as an accent anywhere.
5. Shop the Backyard
This time of year, it's easy to put together a tablescape with found objects dried leaves and grasses, fall fruit, unshelled nuts. Arrange on a platter, and you're done.

The bottom line: A lack of recent substantive updates haven't prevented Malwarebytes Anti-Malware from staying on top of the on-demand malware-killing mountain.

Bearmason wrote:The Avoidance vs Health debate for tanks is eternal, it seems. It seems to me that you should have a balance of both. For starting heroics I figure a bear should have 25K in both health and armor and 35% dodge. Stack Stam and Agility until you reach these numbers. After that you should stack Stamina until you get to 30K health. This is an important number as many groups won't take a tank with less health than that. After you have 30K health I recommend you stack Agility until you get your dodge up to around 40%. Agility also helps your armor rating so you should have plenty of avoidance/mitigation at that point and can stack Stamina from there. Our guild is only in Naxx but so far I havent found any downside from the stam cram. Supposedly in the Ulduar hard modes Stam is even more important. With TEH GEAR SCORE! being all the rage lately I think health is not as large a factor as before. Assuming this continues, and they improve the gear scoring addons, then having the best gear will be more important than your health. Before I was recommending to bears that they grab the polar gear (chest, belt, and boots) and cram them with full Stamina (after you are no longer using them for regular tanking runs) so you can wear them when sitting around in LFG. People are much more likely to take you when they see that huge health pool and the "vanity armor" does have some uses. Supposedly its good for tanking Hodir. Our guild isnt there yet. I have used to to offtank Patchwerk (taking the Hateful Strike) and it works for taking down that pesky mage boss in Occulus.

Having heard about their monthly spelling promotion (conducted at 10 PM on the first Tuesday of each month), I was able to pay this Somerville spot a visit this week (150 Highland Avenue.)
The ambiance is decidedly hipster, as the bar offers both PBR and Narragansett (on tap, no less!) At $3.50 for the former, the price points are in line with Allston/Brighton bars. The bar has a limited selection of beers on tap and appears to have a shallow selection overall, based on the size of the cooler.
The menu only takes up two pages, but is surprisingly diverse and lengthy, but in the right places. Rather than try to force 20 entrees a la Applebees, the restaurant lists only a handful of sandwiches and entrees (including a goat dish!), with the depth coming in their exotic snack and appetizer offerings.
I made my selection from the specials list: jambalaya with andouille sausage and shrimp. Never has a jambalaya aroused my taste buds so much. It was billed as a $9 appetizer, but sufficiently filled this skinny reviewer.
The spelling promotion was as engaging as a typical spelling bee format could be in a bar. It's difficult to hold somebody's attention in a bar game when their direct involvement in it may be limited to the one word you spell incorrectly at the beginning of the game. To that end, many of the patrons that crowded the bar when I first arrived had departed before the end of the game. The male and female hosts bantered well both with each other and with contestants. The words were of varying degrees of difficulty, with definitions, sentences, etymologies, and origins at the ready to aid players. The game may come across tedious to the casual observer, but anybody who wants to enjoy a show will enjoy this one.

Celebrating the "Return of Bruce Wayne"! Those closest to The Dark Knight look back on the legacy he has created. Featuring appearances by Alfred, Dick Grayson, Tim Drake, Damian Wayne and more, courtesy of guest writer Fabian Nicieza and artist Cliff Richards.
BATMAN #703 hits 9/9.
[gallery link="file"]
For most, Labor Day is the last exit sign before crossing the border into fall, which means it's our last chance to have a Friday off under the auspices of "Summer Fridays." So, in more concrete terms – the DC offices are closed today and Monday, which means there'll be no new posts until Tuesday. But come back then for a first look at BATMAN #703.
Have a great holiday weekend, all!
We've had a lot of Batman news of late, but one thing we haven't shared is what the new creative team on BATMAN AND ROBIN will be doing visually. As we unveiled not long ago, Peter Tomasi will be taking over as writer with his former GREEN LANTERN CORPS collaborator Patrick Gleason stepping in as artist.
When Supergirl decides to get away from it all and visit Stephanie Brown on the campus of Gotham City University, a quiet, relaxing weekend turns into a monster movie mash-up. After a science experiment goes horribly wrong, 24 black-and-white Draculas are brought to life, and Batgirl and Supergirl are forced to become vampire hunters in order to stop an army of the celluloid undead.
This is the showdown you've been waiting for, as two Secret Six teams head for a nasty collision, courtesy of writer Gail Simone and artist J. Calafiore. Who is left standing, and will there even be a Secret Six when the dust settles? Bad guy guests galore in this turning point issue.
SECRET SIX #25 hits today.

This October, writer J. Michael Straczynski (Superman, Wonder Woman, Babylon 5, "Changeling") and artist Shane Davis (Green Lantern, Superman/Batman) will take readers on a journey both familiar and new – a story of a last son looking for meaning amidst the skyscrapers and teeming crowds of a great metropolis.
This is a Superman for the 21st century.
The third chapter of legendary Batman writer/artist Neal Adams' epic adventure continues, as Bruce Wayne and Alfred strategize the next steps in the Dark Knight's odyssey – which may lead him straight to the Riddler and Talia.
BATMAN: ODYSSEY #3 hits 9/9.
[gallery link="file"]
Everybody here at the DC offices is getting ready to clear out for a long weekend and the official end of the summer. Considering how much fun we had these past few months on the DC Nation tour, you'd think we'd be sad to say goodbye to the season. But knowing what I know about how we plan on closing out the year...well let's just say there is a TON to be excited about.
We've got another batch of eye candy for you this afternoon, with a look at Ale Garza's cover to THE FLASH #6, Cliff Chiang and Kevin Maguire's covers to JUSTICE LEAGUE: GENERATION LOST #10 and Frazer Irving's creepy BATMAN AND ROBIN #15 look into the Joker's innermost thoughts. Enjoy.

Taxi (2004)
Action/Adventure, Comedy
Belle Williams is a speed demon. Flying through the streets of New York in her tricked-out taxi, she's earned a rep as New York's fastest cabbie. But driving a hack is only a pit stop for her real dream: Belle wants to be a racecar champion. And she's well on her way--until she's derailed by overeager cop Andy Washburn, whose undercover skills are matched only by his total ineptitude behind the wheel. Washburn, whose lack of vehicular skills has landed him in the precinct doghouse, is hot on the heels of a gang of beautiful Brazilian bank robbers, led by Vanessa, their cold, calculating--and leggy--leader. To nab the evasive crooks, driver's license-less Washburn convinces Belle to team up with him to pursue Vanessa and crew. Belle has carte blanche to drive at any speed and break any law. The car-less cop and speed-demon cabbie--New York's unlikeliest partners-- begin a high-speed game of cat and mouse with the robbers. That is, if Belle and Washburn don't end up killing each other first.

To be or not to be a vegan?
I'm a big carnivore. But I watched "Forks over Knives" the other day - a documentary that talks about (and provides scientific research findings) eating a plant-based and whole grain diet with no meat, eggs or milk. The doctors in the documentary said that eating this way heals all sorts of diseases and gives you more energy. It sounds very appealing, but I imagine planning vegan meals will be very difficult, especially in the beginning. Any vegans out there who can attest to the health beneifts of such a diet? Do you really feel better or is this just a fad?
(If I try this, it would have to be a modified vegan diet that allows fish because life without sushi is just not worth living.)

Refraction Game Lesson Plan: Teaching Fractions Through Gameplay
Grade Levels: 3-5, 6-8
In this lesson plan, which is adaptable for grades 3-8, students use BrainPOP resources to make real-world, cross-curricular connections between math and science concepts. Students explore light refraction through online gameplay and an experiment.
Students will:
- Make real-world, cross-curricular connections between math and science concepts
- Explore light refraction through online gameplay and an experiment
- Apply knowledge of fractional concepts (such as equal partitioning, addition, multiplication, mixed numbers, improper fractions, and common denominators) during online gameplay and in real-life scenarios
- Computers for students to use in pairs
- Interactive whiteboard (or just an LCD projector)
- Internet access for BrainPOP
- One transparent glass of water for each group of students
fractions; refraction; defraction; light; angle of refraction
Refraction is an online puzzle game for teaching fractions. In Refraction, the player must partition lasers in order to power spaceships containing various animals who have gotten stuck in space. These animal spaceships all require different fractions of the lasers, and the player is given several pieces that split and bend the lasers to reach the animals and satisfy these requirements. These mechanics can be used to teach many important fraction concepts, such as equal partitioning, addition, multiplication, mixed numbers, improper fractions, and common denominators. The game itself is instrumented so that it records everything the player does, allowing teachers and researchers to analyze play data.Portions of this lesson plan have been adapted from the Center for Game Science. You can watch a demo presentation of this game to see it in action.
Lesson Procedure:
- Allow students to have more time to explore the game with their partners. Encourage them to make use of the "Level Select" option so that they can practice different fractional concepts.
- Ask students to pause the game and come together in a whole class discussion to talk about strategies. What determines the color of the laser? What happens when you try to power a spaceship with the wrong piece? How can a two splitter be used to make sure each ship has the right amount of power? If students have difficulty figuring out the game or explaining their strategies, you can show the first two minutes of the demo presentation to stimulate their thinking and facilitate the discussion.
- Pair students up and allow them to explore the Refraction game for 10-15 minutes.
- Explain that students will have the opportunity to explore refraction, diffraction, and mathematical fractions through an online game in which their job is to save animals that are stuck in space. Tell the class that there is no introductory tutorial because this is a puzzle game in which their job is to figure out their own strategies for game play. For each challenge, they must split and bend pieces on a board in order to provide the right fraction of laser power to each ship.
- Ask students what they think the connection is between the scientific terms "refraction" and "diffraction" and the mathematical term "fraction." You can utilize any of the BrainPOP Fraction Resources such as movies and quizzes to activate prior knowledge and help students make connections.
- Use the experiment and the Refraction and Diffraction movie to familiarize students with these scientific concepts. You may want to project the Vocabulary page and ensure students have a working knowledge of key terms.
- Divide students into groups and distribute a transparent glass full of water to each group. Project the Refraction Experiment for the class to see, and provide several minutes for students to use their pencils to investigate light refraction.

Finally, a finished quilt.
I am really pleased with how it turned out. It was fun to make something so scrappy. (I think I say that every time.) I am currently finishing the pattern for the store. I will probably list it in my etsy shop too, if anyone is interested. This design doesn't require a degree in quantum physics, but sometimes it's just nice to let someone else do the math, you know?
The backing wasn't what I would choose if it was for me, but it's what we had two bolts of at the store and it will sell if people see it on a sample. (We have sold some REALLY ugly fabric that way. It's amazing how many people think if the 'professionals' choose it, it must be the only right choice.)
I had really hoped to get a darker turquoise for the binding, but we just couldn't find the right thing. So we ordered an Amy Butler solid, knowing it would coordinate with the rest of the quilt. This color is called Mist. Fancy. It creates a more subtle look, but still gives some contrast. I really love that color on it's own. It reminds me of my grandma- kind of old and vintage-y looking. Would go perfectly with some vintage sheets I've been hording.
28 comments:
Um, now you have to show the backing. Like, the full backing (not just that eensy glimpse).
And speaking of- can I email you about ordering some extra fabric to swap out some patterns in Mr. Roboto? Am crushing on the star fabrics HARD and I wanted to try and make the backing out of them as opposed to the planets....
Thank you so much for your comments - they make my day! I try to respond to as many as my 'mommy' time allows, but life sometimes gets in the way. Please know how much I appreciate each of them.
I apologize for the current comment settings that require a registered user account. They are the only way that I don't get tons of gross spam. I'm hoping Blogger will make a way where people who are not registered users, but would like to leave a comment can do so. Please, Blogger! In the mean time, thanks for your patience.

The Social Media Strategies Summit London to arrive in the capital
With so many dedicated social media events, or conferences that have a fair dose of the marketing channel running through them, it can safely say that we're on the verge of social media overkill. The intensity in learning and implementing social media into businesses becomes increasingly important for agencies and brands. So, which ones to choose? Well, organisers GSMI is bringing its conference entitled 'The Social Media Strategies Summit London' to the UK's capital with global programme next month, so possibly one of the last of kind this year.
Touching down from 25-27 October 2011, we're stoked to be heading down the great venue at the Hilton London, Tower Bridge, London to check out the event first hand. The event strikes a good balance of speakers from associations (Mobile Marketing Association), agencies, brands (including Dell, InterContinental Hotels Group, JamieOliver.com, Samsung, salesforce.com) and technology providers (including AOL, Facebook, Last.fm, Ning, Twitter, YouTube).
With a combination of conference and workshops, attendees can hope to learn the latest in digital and social media marketing from an array of practitioners from various industries covering subject matter essential for SMEs, medium and global organisations. The three-day conference allows plenty of time for valuable networking between sessions, bringing an international feel with guest speakers that can impart global experience to a UK audience from entrepreneurs to very senior professionals.
We'll report back what we find, so stayed tuned across our social channels.
Keep a track on everything Social Media Strategies Summit London via @GSMIOnline on Twitter, use hash tag #SMSS and the socialaxcess blog at. If you are interested in registering you can find out more about the event here.

White Battery-Operated Paper Lanterns, Set of 4
Poor Product Overall
After purchasing a set of these paper lanterns, they are perhaps the worst quality of product I have purchased from WM. The light from the lanterns is extremely low, the paper construction is cheap, and the lanterns go through AAA batteries within less than 8 hours of use. I wouldn't recommend this product to anyone.
August 11, 2013
HORRIBLE product
Whether battery operated or not, you'd expect a light to provide some sort of lighting. This light isn't even as bright as my children's LED night lights.
I'm beyond disappointed in this product, especially for the price.
I can't think of an instance where this product could be effectively used, the quality it that poor.
February 8, 2013
JUNK! Within 1 hour the lights burn out!!
I love World Market but these paper lanterns are a waste of money, time and effort. World Market should not sell this junk. I bought several packages of these white lanters and hung chains all over my porch at different lengths to hang them. They looked wonderful for about 10 minutes. All lights were out within an hour before my guests arrived. Dont waste your money on these.

There is no offseason in dynasty leagues. January and February are crucial times for reviewing and changing league rules in order to give teams enough time to adjust their rosters and draft strategy before the annual draft. Knowing what changes are coming with the 2012 Flea season is extremely helpful. What can we look forward to?
For example:
Will we see new player positions (e.g. DT, DE, CB, S, etc.)?
What will the rules concerning dual position players be like?
Are any new scoring options being added?
Will we see polls?
Are chatrooms coming?
Will roster sizes be increased?
I know that some things are still being worked on, and there is reluctance to say something is coming that may take awhile, but certainly there are things which you know will be available and can let us know about. Any info would be helpful, if possible.
FFCSR_Hal Admin Oct 15 '77
Hi Dave,
Thanks for the post.
Ori alluded to some of the changes we are working on for 2012 in his post here (I can see how it got hidden, so I'll try and re-post it where I can):
1) We'll review player position changes for the NFL and come out with our preliminary player rankings around the first week of February that include players that have moved too. To give you a heads up, I think the only players in our database that need to be moved are -- Erik Walden (LB), Ryan Kerrigan (LB), Mathias Kiwanuka (LB). If any other players come to your mind that may need changing, please let us know.
We will continue to update these on a case-by-case basis and if they are done before the NFL fantasy season opens for 2012 and drafts begin (62 days), some players may lose the grace period of having both positions like Kerrigan, Walden and Kiwanuka.
The rules for dual eligible players will be the same as last year.
Here is how we determine eligibility for the most part (it's a tricky thing, and we do our best): fleaflicker.com --
We hesitate to do much changing after the preseason starts, but may until the regular season. After the regular season, it's rare NFL guys will change -- e.g. we're glad we never changed Spiller to WR like some sites because he did not warrant that change and it made it unfair in many formats for him to have played WR late in the 2011 fantasy season -- on the other hand, we're glad we changed McCluster to RB/WR like we did during the second week of the NFL preseason because he surely warranted RB status.
2) Scoring options meaning Tackles For Loss, etc? If that's what you mean, let me know. It's possible we add some of these. It is on our agenda to review with our stats team. Do you have any suggestions for new scoring options? TFL come to mind here.
3) Polls and chat rooms are on our agenda, but we want to effectively incorporate them in a way where the site won't be cluttered and the Fleaflicker experience won't be compromised in any way. It's possible they get added, but only if we find a way to integrate and add them in an efficient manner. It is in our agenda, but not at the top; we like them, realize their important, but don't want to take away from the site's fast and easy-to-use experience.
rangerdave Oct 15 '77
Will we see IDP broken down into more than the three positions currently allowed for?
IDP roles for:
Connor Barwin
Mario Williams
Terrell Suggs
Rob Ninkovich
Michael Johnson
Elvis Dumervil
FFCSR_Hal Admin Oct 15 '77
Our staff is leaning towards pegging those dual players mentioned above at certain positions for 2012. If we do, they will be listed as follows:
Michael Johnson, DE; Ninkovic, LB; Barwin, LB; Mario Williams, LB; Elvis Dumervil, DE.
Again, I'm not sure as to what action we'll take officially. But I think it's time those players are moved to one position as they really are no longer hybrids anymore with their teams totally changing schemes.
FantasyGuru1965 Oct 20 '77
I'd really like to see the slow draft upgraded with a timer and an auto-pick feature once the timer runs out. I love the slow drafts, but would really like to be able to set a timer any where from 1 minute to 24 hours. :)
rangerdave Oct 20 '77
Actually, you should have more than a 24-hour maximum on the timer. There are a number of leagues that have 48 hour limits on picks.
FantasyGuru1965 Oct 21 '77
1 minute to 24 hours, 36, 48 or a week. Just a timer that we can set so that the draft will continue along if someone doesn't get in to make their pick. Fanball used to have a great email draft software. Trying to manually watch these drafts is a big pain in the ass... :)
p8n017 Oct 22 '77
i think that there should be a rule for players who return kicks.. they should be pentalized for fumbling the ball and losing the ball
we had an instance this year where i actually won bc flea doesnt have this rule. i won by point 5. knocked a guy out of the playoffs. i would like to have this added please!!!
rangerdave Dec 11 '77
It looks like you guys have updated all the dual position IDP. I don't see any IDP listed at two positions. Are dual position designations being done away with? Are these the actual 2012 designations, or will we see changes when the new season opens up in a few days?
FFCSR_Hal Admin Dec 11 '77
1) With the help of former employees of the NFL office that work in this department, by looking at film, statistics, how other sites list players and where they are lining up this year, IDPs are now listed at the position they will start in on defense -- in their current scheme.
So if you own James Harrison and he's a Steeler, he'll be a LB, though he lines up on the line plenty; same goes for Suggs at LB even if he does line up at DL in a 3-point stance, etc.
This is also in an effort to eventually move all players to DL, DT, LB, CB, DB (though that will most likely not be done this season and this season will be DL, LB and DB -- there's a slight chance we can filter them down even more, but no promises at all and it's unlikely to be implemented in 2012).
2) If a player/UFA signs with a team that runs a different scheme than they are listed at now (for instance Mario Williams signs with a 4-3 based defense), he will move to DL if that's his position with the new team for 2012. Any player that moves around after Week 2 of the preseason when most drafts are held will not be touched until the next season.
3) These are the actual 2012 designations. The change in 5 days is more or so to get your leagues rolling and new members in. It's not to roll out anything spectacular or grandiose. We roll those out when they are ready, not just when the season opens. With that said, be on the lookout for some cool new features soon.
We know this may negatively or positively affect some keeper leagues, but the change was necessary as many players were just listed at outdated positions.
flotsamnjetsam Mar 22 '78
I really hope that fleaflicker changes their IDP's from DB & DL to CB/S & DT/DE for 2013 (as mentioned above). I have a dynasty league here that made a rule change for 2013 where we're going to have to start 1CB & 1DT each week. We've hosted the league here since 2008, and we don't want to move!
thriftyrocker Jan 14 '79
Hi Hal, any chance these IDP designations (CB, DT, etc.) still get added this year?
flotsamnjetsam Jan 14 '79
I read that other thread so thanks Hal & rangerdave! Our leagues situation was described above (new rule for 2013 where we need to start 1DT & 1CB each week), and some of our league members were wondering about this change on flea for 2013 since it hadn't been implemented yet (including thriftyrocker who posted above). I came here to ask about this, but thriftyrocker beat me to it. We really don't want to move the league to another site, so I'm happy to hear that this change will be implemented soon. Thanks again guys!
FleaMod Admin Jan 18 '79
Thanks for being a loyal user. It is a lot of work under the hood, but we realize the importance of it and we're diehards like you and will do our best to split the IDP guys up by the summer. We want it as well and are working on ways to get it done. Hopefully it will be feasible.
TheReaper2545 Apr 05 '79
Unfortunately, I was looking forward to seeing Double headers discussed in this post. Should I take it that it won't be an option this year? Also if I was to try and manually do it could I change wins/losses and waivers each week during the year?
BTW love Ranger Dave's choice in avatar that is a great cd in a long line of great cds from Maiden.
