This program, based in Bali, blends contemporary culture and politics with rich cultural traditions in the arts and religion. You will examine the arts and religions of Indonesia, as well as the socio-religious and other current issues the country faces, including those related to land, water, ethnic identity, and the environment, especially as they relate to the tourism industry in Bali. You will be immersed in the traditions and contemporary interpretations of Hindu and Islamic religious and cultural practices in the context of political transformation and tourism development.
In this program, you will examine the close relationship between contemporary economic and political change with religion, fine arts, performing arts, gender politics, and social organization in contemporary Bali. You will discover the dynamic ways in which Balinese traditional arts, social networks, and the environment are changing, especially in urban settings, in conjunction with the opportunities and pressures of globalization.
The program is based in the Tabanan area of west central Bali; the program center is located in the ancient Tabanan palace known as Puri Saren Kangin Palace. This location has been the program's orientation site for many years.
Located just an hour from the airport, Tabanan is a very important regency in Bali and is known for its beautiful rice terraces, black sand beaches, temples, and distinctive art forms. In 2010, UNESCO officially recognized Subak Jatiluwih—the beautifully terraced rice fields—as a World Heritage Site.
During orientation, you will visit Tanah Lot Temple and witness the purification ceremony held there, before commencing your activities in Bali.
In the nearby city of Tabanan, you may visit the Subak museum where you can see traditional tools used by farmers before the modernization of Bali's rice production.
Subak is an irrigation organization unique to Bali: organization members are those who have rights to plant and harvest the rice fields and share water from the same water source.
You may also witness many of the temples in the area, including those dedicated to the goddess Danu, the Lake Goddess, who is said to irrigate the rice fields. You may also visit Tanah Lot Temple, a public temple situated on a rocky outcropping on the coast. The fresh holy spring water bubbling from the rock under the foot of temple is the source of tirtha (holy water) for all Balinese.
The program includes several opportunities for you to meet, socialize, and work together with Indonesian peers. In Java, Indonesian peers are invited to participate in program activities such as interfaith dialogues and intercultural social events.
Local students from Udayana and Warmadewa universities participate in the village excursion to Tabanan. This gives both groups of students a wonderful opportunity to share the surprises of village life and to get to know one other in an informal atmosphere. Indonesian students will partner with their SIT peers in a joint field-study assignment to conduct interviews and gain primary data for an analytical paper. This will give you an opportunity to practice carrying out interviews in a cross-cultural setting.
Field-based exercises are an essential component of this program. One of the highlights of the semester is attendance at religious and other cultural ceremonies. You will witness processions to the river, tall and beautiful handmade rice ornaments, and special dance performances lasting late into the night. You may purchase pakaian adat, the beautiful Balinese clothing to wear to religious ceremonies.
The Field Methods and Ethics seminar will instruct you in the techniques, methods, and ethics necessary for successful research. The course focuses on the concepts of learning across cultures and from field experience. Material includes:
Throughout this section of the program, you will establish ideas for your Independent Study Project and learn how to develop your research topic properly.

You will dedicate the last month of the program to conducting primary research on an Independent Study Project (ISP) on a topic you select. This individual research project allows you to apply the concepts and skills of your experience-based learning in the Field Methods and Ethics seminar and your interdisciplinary coursework, while exploring a topic of particular significance to you.
Student ISPs on this program have been many and varied over the years, including those based on arts practica and the social sciences. In the social sciences, students have produced high quality works on topics including:
Some students have elected to do the arts practicum ISP, for which they have worked with a wide variety of local experts in the fine arts, performing arts, textile arts, and musical arts. In many cases students have established a lasting artistic and personal rapport with their local partners that has led to the development of innovative artistic approaches. Many projects have been beneficial to both SIT students and their Balinese/Indonesian teachers and peers.

Coursework in this program focuses on the connections between contemporary Indonesian society, politics, and economy with the historical traditions apparent in everyday life, be it urban, village, or rural. Coursework puts the experience of being in Bali in historical context, especially with regard to its special history as an island that was brought under the influence of Dutch colonialism very late (1846 for North Bali, 1909 for South Bali), and never lost its unique form of Hinduism. Through a combination of thematic seminars, language study, field studies, and educational excursions, the program introduces students to the historical, political, and economic (tourism, oil, international investment, and agriculture) conditions of everyday life in Bali, Java, and Indonesia.
Coursework also aims to assist students in understanding the very different set of personal and social points of orientation that are in the background of Balinese life but serve as determining factors in their sense of self and society. These include the relationship between the self and the geophysical world, social relationships, and the relationship to the calendar that determines rituals, an important part of Balinese life.
Students examine the ways in which the arts fit into these patterns. Students explore the deeply seated Balinese notion of a constant interplay between physical/visible reality and a metaphysical/non-visible world of energies that is believed to exist alongside the visible world, and to condition the visible world in ways that often require ritual or healing interventions.

Educational excursions along with field visits to foundations and NGOs engaged in contemporary social challenges in Bali are designed to directly complement and enhance classroom study and fieldwork. The program includes visits to important historic and cultural sites, temple festivals, and other religious rituals, performances, and local ceremonies outside the program's home base.
The program includes two weeks in Java, the most populous island in Indonesia, and home to a majority Muslim population. Java is also well-known as the original home of tempe and batik textiles. While in Yogyakarta, you will have firsthand experience in making a batik T-shirt of your own design with local experts, and you will see a ballet version of the Hindu epic the Ramayana. Yogyakarta is the site of some of the most famous ancient temples of Southeast Asia.
During this time in Java, you will have easy access to lecturers from universities such as Universitas Gadjah Mada (UGM) and Universitas Sanata Darma (Sadar) as well as to the intellectual and artist communities of Yogyakarta. Lectures and excursions will focus on the major religions and philosophies represented in the area, the famous court arts of Java, and the way that social change is expressed through the arts and education in Islamic schools and universities. You will also have experience visits to Pesantren, Islamic boarding schools, and you will see numerous examples of street art forms.
This excursion also includes visits to Borobudur and Prambanan, important Buddhist and Hindu monuments, and homestays with Javanese families who are mostly Muslims.
You will spend between four and six days in a rural farming village in the Tabanan district of Bali, one of the leading regions for Indonesian rice production. During your time in Tabanan, you will have the opportunity to learn about local agriculture and the unique practices of subak societies, which govern rice-field irrigation. You may choose to test your own rice planting skills, learn about traditional medicines, prepare a traditional Balinese feast, play sports with village children, and learn Indonesia's peculiar and widely influential traditional music, gamelan. You may also learn how to make traditional medicine after a lecture on traditional healers and medicine in Bali. You can also make coconut oil and coconut bowls as part of the optional activities.
This excursion is an excellent opportunity for you to examine how the arts are configured in traditional rural settings of Bali, where religious activities are still closely tied to agricultural cycles and rhythms, as well as intergenerational continuity and change in contemporary cultural practices in a North Bali village. A highlight of the visit is the opportunity to engage with a group of Indonesian university students from the English language programs of Udayana University and Warmadewa University in Denpasar.
While in the village, you will conduct an interviewing exercise to gain primary data for your thematic seminar paper on a topic related to your ISP. This assignment will help you develop your interviewing skills and reveal the challenges and problems that might come up during your ISP so you can try to find the best solutions to minimize problems.
This three- or four-day excursion will take you to the mountains of central Bali and along the north and east (or sometimes west) coast. In the fishing village of Sangsit, you will meet with Muslim and Hindu community leaders and villagers for a round-table discussion on the religious and cultural diversity of the north coast. This discussion will be followed by an excursion to several klenteng, Chinese temples; to a wihara, a Buddhist monastery; and to the mosque at Sangsit.
This excursion will give you an exceptional opportunity to observe firsthand Bali's geographic and cultural diversity. During the trip through the mountainous area of the Kintamani ridge, you may have the opportunity to stop at Sukawana, a Balinese village that maintains an old form of social organization based on an "age hierarchy." You may also visit at least one of the village's major temple sites. If the weather permits, you can climb Mt. Batur, the second largest mountain in Bali after Mt. Agung.
After returning from the excursion in Yogyakarta, focus on the themes of social change, current issues, and the environment and tourism in Bali. You will have lectures at Udayana University and stay in a hostel in the Denpasar area; the program will also visit conservation projects around the Sanur area. You will have opportunities to interact with the Indonesian and Balinese students who joined the group during the village visit.
You can take advantage of the excursion in Denpasar to locate contacts for your Independent Study Project—reaching out to the community of journalists, intellectuals, and artists who live and work in the area.
While the city lacks towering skyscrapers, Denpasar is decidedly urban, and you will have the opportunity to explore the city's large bookstores and shopping centers, observing the way business operates outside Bali's central tourist zone.
Ni Wayan Pasek Ariati (Bu Ary) completed her doctoral work at Charles Darwin University of Darwin, Australia, a city whose location on the north coast of Australia makes it a natural partner in the future of Indonesian-Australian relations.

Olivier was an SIT Study Abroad Bali program student in 1991. His Independent Study Project (ISP) was on the Bemo System in Bali, the public transportation system in Bali. Olivier has over 17 years' experience working in the environmental field, particularly in managing solid waste pollution in Indonesia. He first worked for the Wisnu Foundation, Bali's first locally established Indonesian environmental organization, from 1994 to 1998. During that time, in 1995–97, he designed and established the first professional waste management system on the island, which became the company PT Jimbaran Lestari. After the Asian financial crisis, from 1999 to 2007, Olivier ran his own export company before returning to Jimbaran Lestari as their business development executive. He worked there for another two years before leaving to establish a new waste recycling company called Peduli Bali, also known in English as Bali Recycling. CV Peduli Bali (an acronym for Perusahan Daur Ulang Limbah Bali, which in English means Recycling Company of Bali) is the first fully licensed waste management, recycling, and hazardous waste processing facility in all of Bali. Peduli Bali is a pioneer in locally effective methods to collect, process, and recycle rubbish. In a very short time it has established itself as an innovative company where rubbish is either recycled, composted, or reused, and it has developed new methods to recycle difficult items such as Styrofoam, batteries, and wine/liquor bottles. Olivier is married to an Indonesian woman and has two children aged 6 and 18.
Homestays in this program give you a special window into the values, daily lives, and activities of contemporary Hindu Balinese and Muslim Javanese societies and provide additional context for language and thematic coursework. Balinese families typically live in "house-yards" or family compounds that consist of a variety of separate buildings with a fair amount of open space separating each building or pavilion. You will discover the details of the Balinese home, including the role of the family shrine, the living quarters, and spaces for rituals or special guests. In contrast, Javanese Muslim families typically live in one building, and all the activities are carried out in that house.
The primary homestay for this program is located in the village of Kerambitan, within a short walk from the program's classroom facilities.
Through this homestay experience, you will have extraordinary opportunities to observe daily life and participate in the arts and social practices of the village. Kerambitan families, similar to most Balinese families, are very tight-knit and welcoming. You may have the opportunity to join your host family at a wedding, tooth filing, or other life-cycle ritual, and you will see an odalan or anniversary ceremony at a local temple. Students often forge strong connections with their homestay family, and many remain in contact following the program's termination.
You will begin your homestay experience in Kerambitan at the end of the orientation period and will return to your homestay between excursions and for the last few days of the evaluation period. The length of stay with your Balinese family — approximately five weeks spread over the entire program period — will provide you with an exceptional opportunity to become closely acquainted with your homestay family members.
During the rural visit in the Tabanan area, you will experience a second homestay lasting four to five nights. You will experience the area's strong sense of community while staying with village families, most of whom live in large compounds housing several families from a single descent group.
You will live with a host family in Yogyakarta for ten days as part of the group excursion to Java. The homestay families in Java are predominantly Muslim, which will allow you to become familiar with the predominant religious culture in Indonesia. During the stay with Javanese families, you will be invited to participate in socio-religious activities and social gatherings with the local communities. The Javanese families are very welcoming to SIT students. They are proud to be chosen as the homestays of students visiting from the United States, the home country of Barack Obama, who spent part of his youth in Jakarta, west Java; there is a museum near campus where visitors can see Obama's bedroom when he was student.
Other accommodations during the program include hostels or small hotels.
A diversity of students representing different colleges, universities, and majors study abroad on this program. Many of them have gone on to do amazing things that connect back to their experience abroad with SIT. Learn what some of them are now doing.

Arizona's Execution of Joseph Wood on Hold
UPDATE 4:13 p.m.: Wood has been executed, although the procedure took nearly two hours. His attorney actually prepared a motion to stop the execution after more than an hour. Read the latest at the end of this post.
The execution of convicted murderer Joseph Wood has been put on hold by the Arizona Supreme Court.
Wood was scheduled to be executed today at 10 a.m., but that didn't happen. The Arizona Supreme Court will consider Wood's case.

Wood's execution was put on hold earlier this week by a federal appeals court, but the U.S. Supreme Court lifted the stay ahead of the scheduled execution. Wood wanted the state to release detailed information on the drugs that will be used to kill him, as the controversial mixture of drugs haven't been used to execute anyone in Arizona yet.
The state lawsuit -- which is holding up the execution today -- involves a similar complaint about the drugs, and also claims that his previous attorney was ineffective in mounting a mental-health defense in an attempt to avoid his execution.
Wood's death warrant states that it's valid for 24 hours, meaning Wood can still be executed before 10 a.m. Thursday on this warrant. Wood is being executed for the Wood for the 1989 murders of his estranged girlfriend and her father.
Below is a summary of the murders from the Arizona Department of Corrections:
Wood and his 29-year-old ex-girlfriend, Debbie Dietz, had been involved in a turbulent relationship for 5 years, which had been marred by numerous breakups and several domestic violent incidents. Debbie was working at a local body shop owned by her family. On August 7, 1989, Wood walked into the shop and shot Gene Dietz, age 55, in the chest with a .38 caliber revolver, killing him. Gene Dietz's 70-year-old brother was present and tried to stop Wood, but Wood pushed him away and proceeded into another section of the body shop. Wood went up to Debbie, placed her in some type of hold, and shot her once in the abdomen and once in the chest, killing her. Wood then fled the building. Two police officers approached Wood and ordered him to drop his weapon. After Wood placed the weapon on the ground, he reached down and picked it up, and pointed it at the officers. The officers fired, striking Wood several times. Wood was transported to a local hospital where he underwent extensive surgery.
Wood's attorney Dale Baich says, "We are hopeful that the Arizona Supreme Court will give the necessary time and consideration to the constitutional claims raised in Mr. Wood's petition, including review of the experimental combination of drugs to be used in the execution."
UPDATE 11:33 a.m.: The stay has been lifted.
UPDATE 4:10 p.m.: According to the Attorney General's office, Wood's execution started at 1:52 p.m., but he was not declared dead until 3:49 p.m.
His attorney actually prepared a motion during the execution in an attempt to put a stop to it. That motion read, in part:
The Arizona Department of Corrections began the execution of Joseph Rudolph Wood III at 1:52 p.m. At 1:57 p.m ADC reported that Mr. Wood was sedated, but at 2:02 he began to breathe. At 2:03 his mouth moved. Mr. Wood has continued to breathe since that time. He has been gasping and snorting for more than an hour. At 3:02 p.m. At that time, staff rechecked for sedation. He is still alive. This execution has violated Mr. Wood's Eighth Amendment right to be executed in the absence of cruel and unusual punishment.
We respectfully request that this Court stop the execution and require that the Department of Corrections use the lifesaving provisions required in its protocol. See Arizona Department Protocol 710:

Do you have some questions about Lanocreme's effects?
Lanocreme is a New Zealand skincare line that's been around since 1959. Products available cover issues like aging, moisturizing, nail health and more. All formulas are sold on the official website. The company offers a 30-day money back guarantee. You cannot use or try anything before sending back.
What is Lanocreme?
Lanocreme is a product line that uses ingredients like Manuka honey, lanolin, aloe vera, collagen and placental protein. You will find a list of key elements, but nothing complete. That means the customer has no idea if irritants are used in any formula.
Quick Facts on Lanocreme
- There is a 30-day refund policy.
- Orders are shipped internationally.
- International orders can take as long as two weeks to arrive.
- There is no complete list of ingredients for any Lanocreme product.
- We have no idea if parabens, sulfates or irritants are used.
- There's a detailed description of key ingredients, but no research.
- Few reviews are found online.
- Not all customers noticed positive results.
What's Our Skincare Editor's Take on Lanocreme?
"We like the comprehensive line offered by Lanocreme, but we are stuck on the fact that we have no idea about the ingredients," says our Skincare Editor. "Sure, we know a few here and there, but those are handpicked by the company, which means you'll have no idea if irritants are used until you receive your order."
Here's What People Are Saying
We found two issues that came up and needed to be addressed – mediocre results and incomplete information.
- "Tops of hands are softer…didn't notice any other change."
- "Works well but the results are temporary at best…makes you skin look smoother but only for a short period of time."
We did find a few that claimed the products were "ok."
- "Cream is just 'ok'."
We can't help but mention again that the missing ingredient lists are a serious concern.
- "You never want to buy a product without knowing the complete list of ingredients," says our Skincare Editor.
Is It the Time to Race Out for Lanocreme Products?
We can't say that all of the Lanocreme products are bad or good, because we know very little about the line. Sure, they are easy to purchase and the website is pretty, but what is the customer buying? You deserve more than a list of five ingredients commonly used and that's why we have reservations about suggesting these products. It's also a concern that some users found the formulas weren't effective and thus, a waste of money.
What Do We Like Better Than Lanocreme?
If you're looking for an anti-aging formula, the best we've found in 2016 is called BioGeniste. It is made with a clinically tested formula that's been shown to help fight the signs of premature aging. Plus, the users are amazing by the results.

[Lil Wayne: Verse 1]
Okay, let's cut the crap
I'm straight gangsta - forget the rap
I only stick with that cause my ma don't wan' see me flip the crack
And I'm quick to click and spit the gat
I be dipped in black
Sip the Coke mixed with Jack - Calico, clip to match
Like: where them cats who trippin' at? - Point niggas out
Cause right now I'm full of that spinach that'll knock Lennox out
The Mack-10 is out, as well as the gauge and the pump
You turn the page on the newspaper, see my face in the front
I lock it down for all my niggas that still caged in the dump
So if I come, nigga, just save me a blade and a pump
I'm raised in the slum where the bad grow
Unlike no other, I'm real gutta like bad bowls
I stash O's in the drawers of my trash hoes
I flash dough at the laws when they pass slow
I mash low in a stolen hot RAV-4
The Macks blow bullet holes for my cash flow
Is that so?
From Wayne's second solo album Lights Out.

Kotoko coach Didi Dramani desperate for his want-away top players to stay
Kotoko coach Mas-ud Dramani is anxious to hang onto his top stars as they near the exit.Â
The Porcupine Warriors are set to clinch their third successive title in the coming days but could be without a number of their players at the end of the current campaign.
Kwabena Edusei, Abeiku Ainooson, Michael Akufo, goalkeeper Soulama and Seidu Bancey have all been linked with moves away from the club at the end of the season.Â
The record-League holders will stage a return to Africa with African Champions League football looming and coach Dramani fears the potential exit of his many top stars could prove disastrous.
The former Ghana Under-17 female team coach wants the future of his want-away players to be settled.
"We want the players to stay here because this club has big ambitions for the future,†he told sportscrusader.com.
"We want to finish at the top by winning our remaining games.
"The Champions League is so close again. One of the ingredients we have had this season was to respond when everyone was writing us offâ€.
Kotoko crashed out of Africa's elite inter club-competition at the first hurdle and will be keen to make a stronger comeback in the next edition.
James, Hohoe says:May 10, 2014 10:04 amKotoko is not being professional in player contract issues. You don't wait till a player has only one year left on his contract or is about to become a free agent before you start negotiations for contract extension. Coach Didi should be released and a new coach signed because he is not an international trophy winner and I do not like his tactics. He made our girls suffer in goal scoring in Azerbaijan and he brought the same tactics to Kotoko. David Duncan should be signed or a coach is brought from South Africa.

Format a tag on your computer to 2" wide by .75" tall. Leave a .75" square on one side, as shown in the image above. This part will lay across the top of the cork. Then print and cut each piece.
Take a piece of clear tape and laminate the front and back of each piece. Trim off any excess.
Fold each piece .75" from the edge. Rest the folded piece across the top of the cork. Poke the screw eye into the laminated piece of paper and screw in to the cork. Attach the key ring to the screw eye.
- Flip the cork over and put a nail through the bead. Then press the nail into the bottom of the cork. It helps to press the nail against a table when pushing it into the bottom. Pass out your favors and enjoy a glass of wine.

Club offers fun for entire family
For the Anderson family of Oak Harbor, theres no better past time than the sport of archery.
In 2003 alone, father Matt and daughters Olivia and Sara have taken home a combined three national titles, 11 state titles and have had six top five finishes.
Olivia, who is only 13, is already a five-time national champion and is well known in her sport. She immediately took an interest to archery after watching her dad compete a few years ago.
I like it, she said. I went to a couple of tournaments with him and it seemed like fun and there was a lot of competition.
The fact that she was a natural at handling the bow may have also played a large part in her liking the sport so much.
She picked up a bow and said, wow, this looks easy, Matt said. She didnt lose a tournament event for two and a half years.
In her three years of competing, Olivia has been offered chances to try out for the Junior Olympics and the ESPN Great Outdoor Games. She has had to decline thus far due to financial reasons.
Its just a money thing, Matt said. We spend a lot of money going around the country and its really expensive.
Sara, who is nine, has competed in the sport for the last two years and is having a blast just like her older sister.
I like that you get to meet new people and you get to see some of the people you already know from other tournaments, she said.
Sara has won two national titles this year and four state titles.
Although both of his children are finding success, Matt, who is the range master at the Whidbey Bowmans' Club, would like to get more kids introduced to the sport locally.
The biggest thing is were trying to get more and more kids involved, he said.
The Whidbey Bowmans' Club, which is located in the woods just off Rocky Point, allows for people of all ages to join.
As far as kids go they can join, but we need an adult to supervise anyone under the age of 18, Anderson said.
According to Anderson, once a person becomes more involved in archery it can get pretty expensive, but kids can start out for a reasonable price.
Kids can get started fairly cheap, they just need an avenue and to see other kids doing it, he said.
The club provides its current 100 members ample opportunity to improve their skills with 15 acres of walk-through course and 40 targets.
This is one of the top courses in the state as far as safety and quality and the view is awesome, Anderson said.
Not only does the club have one of the best layouts in the state, but it also has one of the best deals as far as cost goes.
Most clubs charge $200 a year to be a member of their club, but because the Navy lets us use this property we dont have any overhead hardly, Anderson said.
For a single person it is $25 a year to join and for a family it is $35.
The club annually holds four tournaments of its own and will be vying for the next state 3D tournament.
Anyone interested in archery can come to the club benefit and barbeque from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. on Saturday, August 16 at the Whidbey Island Bowmans' Club located off of Rocky Point Road. Members and family will get a free meal and a chance at prizes, but the public are welcome to walk around the facilities, ask questions and see what they have to offer.
Wed like people to come out and see what the clubs all about, Anderson said.
Those wanting more information about the barbeque or interested in lessons can contact Matt Anderson at 240-1793.

Halo 4
my_name_is_Ed 4 years ago#11
I love eod helmet. coupled with my orange/Brown scheme, I think it looks badass. gives me a "strong silent type that you better not **** with" vibe when I look at it.
shoulders because I want the largest shoulders possible, that isn't curvy.
chest because its my spec.
I'm trying to get the largest armors possible to go with my eod helmet. as few curves and as little roundness as possible
Dubstep "producers": "Dude I just pushed all these buttons, what's next?"
".....I could push these two buttons AT THE SAME TIME!"
Well mostly Fotus partly because I bought the console so might as well, but most of it looks pretty awesome imo also. Shoulders are infiltrator and forearms twin-plated however.

i like master chiefs armour. It's very default and cool.
If it wasn't on the game, i would just have used default like i do in every game. Not that i like not have individuality, but i just don't give a crap about cutstomisation that is only cosmetic.

I've been wearing the entire Mark VI set with Legendary visor since day one and always will until Halo 5. Why? Because I can and because I didn't buy this game to play Barbie doll every 5 levels. I haven't even looked at other armor this last week, I have 78 new items.
haha im of the same opinion and i have like 100 new items also xD

Orbital Helmit with a midnight visor so I look cool to twelve year olds. Oceanic shouldees because they have a neat curve to them. Black and blue color scheme because it's how I've always rolled in Halo...switch it up with Black and Yellow, Black and White, and White and Blue every now and again.
Forearms..I don't really like any of them, to be honest, so I just go with Outer Plated usually. Legs are those Narrow ones because they're freakin' beautiful. Torso is Recon because I dig the uniqueness of it.
Recruit stance because everyone has Assassin. I'll have Assault soon and haven't seen anyone with it, so looking forward to that.

When I got Oceanic at SR47 I wore that for a while. Felt it went well with my gamertag. Currently I'm using Wetwork armour while I work through the specialization.

Appearence really, maybe a theme depending what I'm feeling I want my character to look like. For example, as I post this I'm using Recruit helmet and visor, and Warrior torso, give my character that ODST look.
(Didn't see any shoulders that look at all like ODST ones)

Governor Jan Brewer's Director of Highway Safety, Alberto Gutier, Admits Clean Elections Violation
Alberto Gutier, director of the Arizona Department of Highway Safety, admitted to New Times today that he made contributions to Governor Jan Brewer's campaign under the name of a subordinate employee and his family -- when the money came from Gutier himself.
Gutier characterized the contribution as a "huge mistake" and said he will agree to a settlement with the Clean Elections Commission that includes a $500 fine.
"I told [the employee], 'If you don't have the cash, you can pay me later, and then I forgot," Gutier said. "I'm sorry."
Gutier's admission comes in response to a complaint that the subordinate, Tom Gaupel, filed with the Clean Elections Commission in March. Gaupel, a former Mesa police officer, wrote in his complaint that Gutier solicited $5 contributions from himself and his wife. When Gutier learned that Gaupel's daughter was of voting age, he asked for a donation form from her, too.
But though the trio filled out donation forms, they never actually gave Gutier any money to back them. Gutier told them that was okay, Gaupel alleges, "and that he would take care of it."

Candidates running under the Clean Elections system, such as Governor Brewer, must submit $5 contributions from a large number of citizens to qualify for public funding. It's a way of showing they have sufficient support to merit public funds for their campaign.
For that reason, the Clean Elections Commission takes complaints like Gaupel's seriously. Even if an extra $15 from a political appointee isn't a big deal, it gets to the heart of the "clean" system: Big donors shouldn't be allowed to just write a check and later find names of a lot of small fish to list as donors.
In his complaint, Gaupel alleges that Gutier asked other employees for contributions, and "I would think they also completed [the forms] out of fear for losing their jobs." In letters to the commission, the other employees all denied being pressured or intimidated.
Gutier insisted to New Times that Gaupel's complaint is the work of a disgruntled former employee. (Gaupel resigned just prior to filing his complaint.) He notes that Gaupel now works for Pinal County Sheriff Paul Babeu, who is backing one of Brewer's challengers, Dean Martin.
"There's no question this is political," he said. "I think they're trying to entrap the governor."
Clean Elections Commission Director Todd Lang is recommending that Brewer's campaign not be penalized for Gutier's actions, saying he could find no "proof of coordination" with Gutier. Brewer also agreed to withdraw the three $5 contributions in question.
The commission is scheduled to vote on Lang's recommendations at its meeting tomorrow. They will also consider a conciliation agreement with Gutier, which he said will require him to pay a $500 fine.
Gutier said he's already paid an estimated $1,000 in attorney's fees. "I'm going to have a tough time explaining to my wife what this has cost me for three $5 contributions," he said.

Corsair H60 2013 edition review -
Baseline testing the cooler
Testing The Cooler
Time to test. The cooler will work absolutely great with any processor from low to high-end (Core i3/Core i5/Core i7 quad-core and even six-core included up-to 130W) at default operating frequencies, of course there's room left for overclocking as well.
We have built a new test system for cooling benchmarks. So unfortunately I do not have comparable and competing results ready for you just yet.
Small note - I decided to go with the Core i7 3770K as it literally is the hottest processor your money can buy you. You guys all know that once overclocked with added voltage, the temperatures get out of control big-time.
Prior to testing though I've been battling the question wether or not to actually use a Core i7 3770K. The Ivy Bridge processors all have poor heat transfer from the silicon die to the IHS. Fact remains that Ivy Bridge is what people buy -- and as such you want to know how these coolers perform on it. We could use a Core i7 2600K instead, but these already are EOL. We could also use a 1000 EUR 6-core Core i7 3960X processor but again ... how many people do actually buy these processors ?
The vast majority of our readers will purchase the Core i7 37x0 or Core i5 35x0 series -- so this is what most of our readers are really interested in hence we took the top 4-core SKU -- it's just that Intel made things very complicated with their poor heat transfer design.
So we'll be testing that processor at default clock frequencies, and then overclocked towards 4600 MHz with a 1.20 Volts and then blast the processor with 1.30 Volts. That voltage is not at all needed for 4600 MHz but typically will bring the processor with a heatpipe cooler towards 90 Degrees C (!). We are merely trying to see how the cooler will behave under such stringent conditions.
All temperatures reported are the processor package sensor temps. The cores independently will differ a little in degrees C here and there. We measure at an ambient room temperature of 20 Degrees C.
Test 2 - IDLE Temperature
Let's have a look at the results. Again let me state this is a completely new test setup, you'll not be seeing any other cooling solution for comparison today. We are however working on a cooler article with multiple coolers tested. It will be released later on.
Below, the IDLE temperatures, thus your processor is doing barely anything to nothing. Just sitting and waiting in your system.
This is liquid cooling, the coolant will overall in idle be warmer than a heatpipe cooler as the ambient temperature is also your LCS coolant temperature at minimum. As you can see as comparison I thre in the H100i with Quiet and Balanced modes in all charts.
Test 3 - LOAD Temperature
But now let's have a look at the processor's LOAD temperatures. I do have to make a note here, we measure in a 20 Degrees C ambient room temperature. Ambient temperatures do effect the coolant, albeit a little bit.
- Anything at roughly 50 Degrees C or lower we consider enthusiast class cooling.
- Anything in-between 51 to 60 Degrees C we consider performance cooling
- Anything in-between 61 to 70 Degrees C we consider mainstream cooling
- Anything above 71 Degrees C we consider average cooling
We are at the 50~55 Degrees C zone with the processor set at default. Slightly worse then the H100i, but the much cheaper H60 certainly holds up well.

Skip to comments.Dog Saves Boy From Tsunami
Posted on 01/02/2005 4:35:21 PM PST by Dallas59
Sangeeta, a mother of three boys, looks down on her eldest son, Dinakaran, seated, and the dog that saved his life, Selvakumar Sunday, Jan. 2, 2005. Sangeeta could only carry two of her boys and had to leave Dinakaran to fend for himself when a tsunami crashed into their village on Dec. 26, 2004. Selvakumar pulled Dinakaran out of the family hut and nipped and nudged him up a hill to safety. (AP Photo/Chris Tomlinson )
Good doggie!
Dogs are man's best friend.
Great story, by the way.
We try.......some of us can be cranky.
Bump. Now I must go give Maple a great big hug!
Boy, that reminds me of the 3 legged pig joke.
Jack says to ping you.
My mother-in-law was here in VA last weekend, so I know it wasn't her.....
Now that is a happy looking dog, did his duty and
is now more loved and respected in his family and neighborhood.
Our pets are so smart and so devoted. When we had an earthquake in San Marino Calif in the late 1980s our cat went outside and refused to come in all day. After all the aftershocks stopped hitting, she came back inside. I think we should somehow tune in to animal ESP.
Hopefully, the dog won't end up as dinner any time soon.
Leave it to a canine to avert a CATastrophe!
Good pooch!
He looks like he just had a steak supper.
... and rightly so!
I was just getting ready to ping Y'all
And that reminds me of my neighbor's devotion to his dog.
My neighbor has a 13 year old dog with no legs. The dog was run over by a car and all four legs were crushed. They didn't have the heart to put the dog down so they continued to care for the dog. They kept it in a room with somebody in the family all the time. It could eat and drink from its bowl and when ever the call of nature would come, it would bark and one of them, usually one of the children would take it outside and hold it up while the dog relieved itself, then bring it back in the house.
When I first met the family, I thought the accident had happened maybe within the past year or so. I was surprised to find out the dog had been run over when it was a young pup of only nine months. They had kept a dog with no legs for over 12 years. When I inquired as to what the dog's name was, they informed me that the dog had never been given a offical or actual name.
They explained further that they felt it did not make much sense to give the dog a name since it wouldn't come when you called it.
The dog's name is "Stay!"
Anyone with a disbelief in GOD, or that animals are not intelligent, or have no moral conscience, need read this story.
It is the nature of the Earth, unrespected by man, that caused this disaster. God set the world in motion. He does not interfere with invidual will. If you choose to stand agape, watching an incoming tsunami force wave, you will likely die.
But God was in the heart of that dog, like he is in the heart of all.
Well as a matter of fact, it could do tricks such as stay and roll over.
Tell me that's a joke.
"Slinky", then.
Not funny.
Laughter helps sometimes. We are far enough removed from this disaster that we can joke. Let us not go too far, though. I am sure that that family never considered eating their family pet.
I have a dog named "Molly" who would be a double for that dog. Molly, is a cross between a Lab and a Huskie and she is a sweetheart along with her friend Gigee who is a cross between Aussie Shepard and Border Collie. Both are beautiful dogs.
And "woof" to you also.
I've seen that part of the world, trust me dogs, cats, and monkeys are not safe.
Heart tugger.
That pooch is going to be treated like a King in his human family!
He would be in mine, oh wait mine already are.LOL
I don't doubt it. Not being an Aussie farmer, I wasn't knocking dingoes. There are various theories that dingoes and some Native American dogs--especially the "Carolina dingo"--are relatively unchanged from early in the domestication of dogs. Seeing an Indian-from-India dog which looks like a dingo just sort of fits with that.
Check this out!
I have seen those studies that if you had many breeds of dogs and then just left them alone, after several or many generations, that is bascially what they would revert back to.
Awwwwww kind of article. Woof!
Ha ha! I ping and you pong.
Ping pong and woof woof!
Thanks for your ping, Salamander. I thought about you and our pups when I read this too.
They also resemble Ibizan Hounds, another "primitive" breed.
I have 4 of them now and have had many others over the years.
My late lamented Minnie once saved me and 5 other dogs from dying of smoke inhalation.
The woodstove chimney had some sort of "draft malfunction" and the smoke was pouring into the house as we all slept.
Minnie, who rarely barked or got "wild" about anything woke me up from what was surely a slow-suffocation "sleep" by barking -very- loudly and bouncing on my chest.
I slowly came to and realized what was going on and staggered around opening all the windows and doors.
I dragged the dogs onto the front porch and we all huddled there in the sub-zero February cold until the smoke cleared out of the house enough for me go in and shut the vents on the stove, thereby suffocating the fire.
I and all my dogs would've died in our sleep if not for her.
To this day, I don't know what got into her because such things just weren't "her style".
I just *knew* you'd love it too....:)
Dog is man's best friend, spelled forwards and backwards. J
I still miss her.
I always will.
Have you heard about this Rottie whose owner had a heart attack in the woods (Animal Planet) and the dog dragged him all the way back home? The Rottie had torn his muscles in his legs pulling the guy but he didn't quit. Somehow kept going. Such love, I can't imagine other than God's.
One day a man drove by a farm and saw a three-legged pig. The man went up to the farmer and said, "Excuse me sir, but why does that pig only have 3 legs?"
"Well," said the farmer, "that there pig is very special. One time my wife was cooking something she stepped out of the kitchen and it caught on fire. No one in the house knew about it but the pig and he saved me, my wife, and my 2 kids."
"That's amazing sir but why does that pig onlly have three legs?" said the man.
"Then there was that time the pig saw a big storm coming and we didn't. The pig ran into the house and dragged us out to the storm cellar. If it weren't for that pig we would all be dead."
"But still, that doesn't explain why the pig only has 3 legs."
"And I remember the time my youngest son was stuck up in a tree but I was too far away to hear him scream. The pig came running towards me and led me to where he was."
"Well, that is miracle but how come that pig only has 3 legs?" the man said quite annoyed at this point.
"Well," said the farmer, "with a pig that special, you can't eat him all at once."
I know........
Like it says on my beloved Bubba's headstone, "Love is Forever."
Give that dog a bone, a home, and a medal. He is a hero !
Oh my gosh. Those children will grow up to be wonderful, compassionate people.
