Vol. 21, No. 26
In a November 1 column in the Washington Post reproduced below, the respected economist Robert J. Samuelson attacks the Administration's high-speed rail program as "wasteful spending masquerading as a respectable social cause." While we do not agree with all of Samuelson's conclusions, we do think his article contains some well-founded and convincing arguments. Samuelson's key argument is that "we are prisoners of economic geography" of post World War II suburbanization. The resulting demography, he contends, has made trip origins and destinations too dispersed to support intercity passenger rail service in most corridors. (It's not clear if he would include or exempt the Northeast Corridor from this conclusion; we would exempt it).
Samuelson's blunt assessment appears in stark contrast to the Administration's confident prediction, in the words of top federal transportation officials, of "a world class network of high-speed corridors" that would connect "80 percent of America in the next 25 years at a cost of $500 billion." How can professional judgments be so diametricaly opposed and whose judgment will prevail? We shall not know for a long time. But in the near term, Samuelson's conclusion is likely to resonate more strongly in the deficit-conscious next Congress and among fiscally-strapped state governments: "The Administration's championing and subsidies [for high-speed rail projects], he writes, "represent shortsighted, thoughtless government at its worst. It's a triumph of politically expedient fiction over logic and evidence."
By Robert J. Samuelson
Washington Post, Monday, November 1, 2010
Somehow, it's become fashionable to think that high-speed trains connecting major cities will help "save the planet." They won't. They're a perfect example of wasteful spending masquerading as a respectable social cause. They would further burden already overburdened governments and drain dollars from worthier programs – schools, defense, research.
Let's suppose that the Obama administration gets its wish to build high-speed rail systems in 13 urban corridors. The administration has already committed $10.5 billion, and that's just a token down payment. California wants about $19 billion for an 800-mile track from Anaheim to San Francisco. Constructing all 13 corridors could easily approach $200 billion. Most (or all) of that would have to come from government at some level. What would we get for this huge investment?
Not much. Here's what we wouldn't get: any meaningful reduction in traffic congestion, greenhouse gas emissions, air travel, oil consumption or imports. Nada, zip. If you can do fourth-grade math, you can understand why.
High-speed inter-city trains (not commuter lines) travel at up to 250 miles per hour and are most competitive with planes and cars over distances of fewer than 500 miles. In a report on high-speed rail, the nonpartisan Congressional Research Service examined the 12 corridors of 500 miles or fewer with the most daily air traffic in 2007. Los Angeles to San Francisco led the list with 13,838 passengers; altogether, daily air passengers in these 12 corridors totaled 52,934. If all of them switched to trains, the total number of daily airline passengers, about 2 million, would drop only 2.5 percent. Any fuel savings would be less than that; even trains need energy.
Indeed, inter-city trains – at whatever speed – target such a small part of total travel that the changes in oil use, congestion or greenhouse gases must be microscopic. Every day, about 140 million Americans go to work, with about 85 percent driving an average of 25 minutes (three-quarters drive alone; 10 percent carpool). Even assuming 250,000 high-speed rail passengers, there would be no visible effect on routine commuting, let alone personal driving. In the Northeast Corridor, with about 45 million people, Amtrak's daily ridership is 28,500. If its trains shut down tomorrow, no one except the affected passengers would notice.
We are prisoners of economic geography. Suburbanization after World War II made most rail travel impractical. From 1950 to 2000, the share of the metropolitan population living in central cities fell from 56 percent to 32 percent, report UCLA economists Leah Platt Boustan and Allison Shertzer. Jobs moved, too. Trip origins and destinations are too dispersed to support most rail service.
Only in places with greater population densities, such as Europe and Asia, is high-speed rail potentially attractive. Even there, most of the existing high-speed trains don't earn "enough revenue to cover both their construction and operating costs," the Congressional Research Service report said. The major exceptions seem to be the Tokyo-Osaka and Paris-Lyon lines.
President Obama calls high-speed rail essential "infrastructure" when it's actually old-fashioned "pork barrel." The interesting question is why it retains its intellectual respectability. The answer, it seems, is willful ignorance. People prefer fashionable make-believe to distasteful realities. They imagine public benefits that don't exist and ignore costs that do.
Consider California. Its budget is a shambles. To save money, it furloughs state workers. Still, it clings to its high-speed rail project. No one knows the cost. In 2009, the California High-Speed Rail Authority estimated $42.6 billion, up from $33.6 billion in 2008 – a huge one-year increase. The CHSRA wants the federal government to pay almost half the cost. Even if it does and the state issues $9.95 billion in approved bonds, a financing gap of perhaps $15 billion would remain.
Somehow that is to be extracted from cities, towns and investors. The CHSRA says the completed system will generate annual operating profits, $3 billion by 2030. If private investors concurred, they'd be clamoring to commit funds; they aren't.
All this would further mortgage California's future with more debt and, conceivably, subsidies to keep the trains running. And for what? In 2030, high-speed rail trains would provide only about 4 percent of California's inter-regional trips, the CHSRA projects.
The absurdity is apparent. High-speed rail would subsidize a tiny group of travelers and do little else. If states want these projects, they should pay all costs because there are no meaningful national gains. The administration's championing and subsidies – with money that worsens long-term budget deficits – represent shortsighted, thoughtless government at its worst. It's a triumph of politically expedient fiction over logic and evidence. With governments everywhere pressed for funds, how can anyone justify a program whose main effect will simply be to make matters worse?

Ray J is going after Kim Kardashian and Kanye West while they're down.
The "I Hit It First" singer is again bringing up his 2003 sex tape with the reality star in a new diss track, "Famous," which shares a name with the "Life of Pablo" rapper's controversial song, features Chris Brown, and dropped on Monday on Apple Music, featuring shade directed at the whole Kardashian family.
WATCH: Kim Kardashian to Make First Public Appearance Since Paris Robbery to Honor Late Father Robert at Angel Ball
"She f**k me for fame, look in her eyes / She was the first one to sign on the line," Ray J sings in the very NSFW song. "Look at the family, they walk around proud / All because she had my d**k in her mouth."
"Wanna have me in bed while you f**kin' your spouse," he continues. "Shows that you still a rat and your man Mickey Mouse."
WATCH: Kanye West Cancels L.A. Makeup Show as Ticketmaster Issues Refunds Following His Bizarre Concert Rant
Ray J was name-checked in Kanye's "Life of Pablo" album, and he promised a response track during an interview with Billboard after both he and Chris had lookalikes featured in Kanye's deeply unsettling "Famous" video.
Still the release of the track feels a little salty, as Kanye canceled his remaining Saint Pablo tour dates on Monday, following a series of onstage and online meltdowns.
WATCH: Kanye West Says He Prefers to Only Talk Through Emojis: 'Words Get in the Way of What You Really Want to Say'
The rapper was booed onstage two times last week during rants where he proclaimed his support for president-elect Donald Trump, as well as made remarks about Beyoncé and Jay Z.
"Beyoncé, I was hurt. 'Cause I heard that you said you wouldn't perform unless you won Video of the Year over me and over 'Hotline Bling,'" Kanye said at his Sacramento show, referencing this year's MTV Video Music Awards before cutting the show short. "Now don't go trying to diss Beyoncé. She is great. Taylor Swift is great. We are all great people. We are all people. But sometimes we be playing the politics too much and forgetting who we are just to win. F**k winning. F**k looking cool. F**k being cool."
WATCH: Kim Kardashian Returns to Instagram After Paris Robbery to Follow Celebs Like Paris Hilton and Ariana Grande
"Ay Z, call me bruh. You still ain't called me," he continued. "Jay Z, I know you got killers, please don't send them at my head. Just call me. Talk to me like a man."
Following the rants, Kanye canceled a scheduled makeup show in Los Angeles hours before it was to begin Sunday night, while sharing nearly 100 random fashion photos to Instagram.
WATCH: Kanye West Cancels Rest of Saint Pablo U.S. Tour Dates, All Tickets Will Be Refunded
Meanwhile, Kim is set to make her first official public appearance since her Paris robbery. Sources tell ET the "Keeping Up With the Kardashians" star will honour her late father, Robert Kardashian, at the Angel Ball in New York City.

From A
Biographical History of Central Kansas, Vol. I, p. 242
published by The Lewis Publishing Co, Chicago & New York, 1902
ISAAC L. McCRACKEN
Isaac L McCracken is now living retired in Sterling, the rest which crowns honorable, continued and well directed efforts having been vouchsafed to him, and now as he approaches the evening of life he is enabled to enjoy quiet retirement. He was born in Butler county, Ohio, July 18, 1836. His father, the Rev S W McCracken, was born in Hamilton county, Ohio, near Cincinnati, in 1800, and was a son of Wilson McCracken, but aside from this little is known concerning the remote ancestral history. During the greater part of his life the Rev McCracken devoted his labors to gospel work as a minister of the United Presbyterian church, and was at one time professor of mathematics in the Miami University, of Ohio. He married Miss Catherine E Monfort, who was born in Butler county, Ohio, about 1809, and was a daughter of Peter and Anna Maria (Spinning) Monfort. The parents of our subject were married in Oxford, Ohio, and the mother died at Morning Sun, Preble county, that state, in 1849, while the father, surviving her about ten years, passed away in the same county, in October, 1859. He was for twenty years the pastor of Hopewell church in that county and his remains were laid to rest in the churchyard there. They were the parents of nine children, but only four reached years of maturity, namely: John Calvin, who is now a merchant in Urbana, Ohio; Isaac L; Charlotte A, who became the wife of W Craig and died in Oxford, Ohio, April 23, 1893, at the age of forty-nine years, leaving four children; and Samuel, who was killed at the battle of Resaca, and sleeps in the soldier's cemetery at Atlanta, Georgia. He left the Miami University at President Lincoln's second call for troops, served for three years and on the expiration of that period, when his first term of enlistment had expired, he re-enlisted, meeting death upon the battlefield.
Isaac L McCracken, the immediate subject of this review, and the member of the family in whom the citizens of central Kansas are most interested, was a student in the Morning Sun Academy, after which he engaged in teaching for one term. He volunteered for service in the Union army August 8, 1862, becoming a member of company G, Ninety-third Ohio Infantry. He joined the army as a private and was sergeant when mustered out. He was never wounded, but was accidentally injured while on the sick list. Brave and loyal he was ever found at his post of duty and with a creditable military record he returned to his home.
Mr McCracken was united in marriage October 27, 1857, to Miss Ella W Stewart, of Preble county, Ohio, born December 9, 1835, her parents being Joseph and Naomi (Hart) Stewart. Eight children have been born of this union: Alla M, wife of A D Ramsey, of Sterling, and they have three living children and have lost one; Frank M, who died at the age of two years, while his father was in the service of his country; Myrta C, who is the wife of N C Elliott, of Union county, Indiana, and they have two living children; Charley S, who is now a ranchman in Texas; Lee S, a resident of Sterling, who is married and has four children; Gilbert G, who is married and also resides in Sterling; Josiah C, who graduated in the University of Pennsylvania with the class of 1901, and was for four years a member of the football team and one of the finest athletes of the school, while he is also renowned for his mental superiority and his moral worth; and Daisy E, who is the wife of O B Johnson, of Lyons, Kansas.
Mr McCracken continued to reside in Ohio until the fall of 1872, when he removed to Lincoln county, Tennessee, going thence to Emerson county, Kansas, in the fall of 1884. He followed farming and milling. In the spring of 1886 he went to Ness county, Kansas, where he secured four quarter sections of land and thereon carried on farming for five years. In 1891 he came to Sterling, taking up his abode in his present good residence, and is now living retired. Socially he is connected with the Grand Army of the Republic and has been junior vice commander. He has served as street commissioner for four years and is a stanch temperance man. He also belongs to the United Presbyterian church, in which he is a trustee, and he is deeply interested in all moral work calculated to uplift his fellow men.

2010 Hyundai Tucson FWD 4-door I4 Auto Limited PZEV Angular Front Exterior View
On my particular test vehicle, the interior is bi-color, with dark and light taupe plastic accented by matte silver touches--including the center of the steering wheel. The central stack's LED information display is easy to read and there's a bit of hooding over the CD slot. At the base of the central stack are a pair of 12 volt plugs and the balance of the audio inputs. Two rather large cupholders--best for Big Gulp-type beverages--do tend to make drinks wobble around, but the cupholders in all four doors can take care of smaller items.
There's good space for three people in the rear of the cabin with tons of legroom and there is a pulldown armrest with shallow cupholders. There are also 60/40 fold for the rear seats that will increase the 25.7 cubic-feet (uncovered) hatch space to a maximum of 56 cubic-feet. The spare tire lies beneath the hatch floor together with its tools.
The 2010 Hyundai Tucson is of a standard size for the breed at 173.2 inches long, 71.7 inches wide and 65.2 inches tall. Wheelbase is an excellent 103.9 inches, ground clearance is 6.7 inches allows good ingress/egress, and the Tucson weighs in at 3,203 pounds. Turning circle is 34.7 feet--not bad at all for a front-wheel drive vehicle of its size.
This crossover is rated at 23/31 mpg city/highway by the EPA and it runs on regular fuel. There is a release on the floor for the fuel filler cap. Our mileage, according to the trip computer accessed through the trip odometer button, said that our mostly around-town mileage was close to 28 mpg on a vehicle that had nearly 6,000 miles on it, nicely broken in. It'll tow 2,000 pounds and handle a payload of 1,294 pounds, according to Hyundai.
What is most impressive about this 2010 Hyundai Tucson GLS is its fun-to-drive nature, its sporting handling and it's excellent build quality. Controls are simple on the Tucson and the cabin is both a comfortable (good manual seats with height control) and easy on the eyes.
Hyundai has made a grand leap forward with its new Tucson and made it a crossover anyone that's in the market should consider taking home for a few years, or more. © Anne Proffit 2010

RED Hearts: Loving Arrested Development/
RED Hearts are guests posts on I Heart Daily from the authors of RED: Teenage Girls in America Write On What Fires Up Their Lives Today. Today's RED Hearts post is from Maya-Catherine Popa, 20, reporting from New York, NY, who appreciates smart, human-based television:
Tired of romances between the undead? Bored of America's Next Top blonde, sandwich or kite flyer? Then maybe it's time to watch a TV show that's funny -- actuallyfunny, not "Isn't it funny how that model suspended in the air is crying upside down?"
Arrested Development tells the story of a dysfunctional family, the Bluths, led by a dodgy dad who loses all of their money in a financial scandal (one that is all too familiar in this post-Madoff era). The father is wholly guilty as charged, and son Michael, the family's one conscientious member, is forced to manage his inept siblings and manipulative mother, while trying to raise a diligent son of his own. Of course, this proves to be the challenge one would expect from a group of people who are deeply perplexed by the idea of work and find it difficult to adjust to not charging everything -- from $18,000 magic tricks to large donations for their own invented, ludicrous charities -- to the company card.
But unlike watching an MTV reality sitcom on the lives of adolescent millionaires, Arrested Development features a script that is brilliant, and, best of all, grammatically correct. The show's comedic timing is perfect, and you may actually walk away a smarter, sassier individual.
So why was Arrested Development kicked off the air after three seasons? Maybe it just couldn't keep up with the times. The Bluths were, after all, human -- painfully, hilariously human. A dysfunctional vampire or zombie family was the sure way to go.
The three seasons of Arrested Development are available for download on iTunes.

FedEx St Jude Classic betting tips and fantasy picksJune 8, 2015 Golf Tips
We pick out some top fantasy golf and betting tips ahead of the St Jude Classic
Register or make changes to your Fantasy Golf team HERE
It was a thrilling start to June in the National Club Golfer Fantasy Golf Game with a Swedish double on the European and PGA Tours.
Not many players had Memorial Tournament winner David Lingmerth in their side but Alex Noren was a more popular choice as he claimed his second Nordea Masters title.
The top monthly team was minichidders13 who had Noren and compatriot Henrik Stenson in his side along with Jordan Spieth, Justin Rose and Hideki Matsuyama to bring in an impressive 1886 points and set the pace for the June monthly prize.
In the overall game, Viking Valdemar shot to the top of the leaderboard thanks again the the services of Noren, Speith and Dustin Johnson.
That brings us nicely on to the PGA Tour's FedEx St Jude Classic where Johnson is the bookies favourite after a pretty successful return following an eight month break.
The big-hitting American already has one win this season and seems to be in the mix most weeks despite having the odd horror score which put the skids on his challenge.
Register or make changes to your Fantasy Golf team HERE
Phil Mickelson is also in the field and is a player bookies are clearly quite scared despite not recording a PGA Tour win since 2013.
The odds are pretty short but "lefty" will be looking to find some momentum as he goes in search of that elusive US Open title the following week.
Mickelson finished in the top 10 in this event last year so has some course form.
When looking for a bit of value, look no further than Matt Every who was in a tie for third at last year's event and has a win to his name in 2015.
He can be found at odds of 80/1 with some bookmakers.
Register or make changes to your Fantasy Golf team HERE
Sweden's Carl Petterson was also in a tie for third last year and can be backed at odds of around 90/1 this time around.
The other player in third place last year was former US Open champion Webb Simpson who is quite fancied this year with short odds of 18/1.
Billy Horschel is another player bookies seem slightly wary of, perhaps due to his streaky nature. Last year's FedEx Cup winner was also in the top 10 last year which is another reason his odds are around the 16-18/1 mark.
Register or make changes to your Fantasy Golf team HERE
Brooks Koepka was another in the top 20 last year but since then he has gone from strength the strength racking up wins on both the PGA and European Tour. Keep an eye on him at odds of around 22/1.
Scotland's Russell Knox has become a very consistent performer on the PGA Tour so could be well worth an each-way bet at odds of around 60/1.

New research has found that treatment of hypertension has failed to improve in the last decade in the countries of the former Soviet Union. Hypertension, or high blood pressure, is one of the leading causes of avoidable deaths in the former Soviet Union.
The study, published in the Journal of Epidemiology and Community Health, included over 18,400 participants in 2001 and over 17,900 participants in 2010/11 from Armenia, Azerbaijan, Belarus, Georgia, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Moldova, Russia, and Ukraine.
Researchers led by the London School of Hygiene & Tropical Medicine, found that in 2010/11, 68% of participants failed to take medication daily, only slightly down from at 74% in 2001. Young men who smoke and drink alcohol were those least likely to be following treatment.
High rates of hypertension have remained steady in the former Soviet Union, in contrast to the decline seen in Western Europe in recent years.
Lead author, Bayard Roberts, Lecturer in Public Health at the London School of Hygiene & Tropical Medicine, said: "Over two-thirds of those diagnosed with, and treated for, hypertension in the former Soviet Union are not taking their treatment regularly, leading to potentially serious consequences for their long-term health.
"Our study has uncovered the scale of the problem regarding treatment and it requires an urgent response - there needs to be a dramatic scaling up of regular treatment for hypertension in these countries."
Possible reasons cited for poor treatment include problems with prescribing medication, lack of money to buy medication, poor access to health services and a low awareness around the need to regularly take medication. The authors have called for further research to understand prescription patterns, why individuals are not sticking to their treatment, and to address health system barriers in the region.

Experience the lives and surroundings of a few São Paulo punks, the fierce Brazilian birthplace of this global culture of dissent. In a country with a well-known non-rock musical tradition, where corruption is cultural and violence is routine - Punk brought a cathartic expression more akin to urban realities. As a working class movement that started under the violent grip of Brazilian dictatorship, this is do-it-yourself at its most creative, and a celebratory means of resistance.

Have just spent a simply wonderful long weekend with my sisters at Riyad al Moussiki. We had a very comfortable room, the breakfast was delicious and the ambiente stunning. It was our first visit to Marrakech and the differences in culture, the heat and the miriad of new impressions can be a little overpowering! So it was all the more important for us to have a hotel where we could really relax. Riyad al Moussiki was just that : a perfect sanctuary for us after the hustle and bustle of the city. Above all however it was a joy to spend time in such a tranquil and convivial environment. I have never stayed in a hotel before where there is obviously such a positive, harmonious relationship between the manager and his staff and indeed between the members of staff themselves. This contributed to a wonderfully peaceful, friendly atmosphere. All the members of staff who dealt with us did so with cheerfulness and courtesy and did their utmost to meet our every need. The manager was took time to chat with us and gave us some fascinating insights into life in Morocco. It was a delight to spend time in Riyad al Moussiki and our time in Marrakech was enriched by the experiences we had there. Hospitality at its best.
- Official Description (provided by the hotel):
- Riad Al Moussika - For comfort, style and refinement. THE Riad experience in Marrakech! Situated in the ancient medina of Marrakech, five minutes walk from place Jemaa El Fna, the Riyad was once one of the residences of the former Pasha of Marrakech, Thami El Glaoui, and has been refurbished to a very high standard in the Andalucian style. One of the gates of Riyad Al Moussika opens on to a garden with old cypress trees soaring to the sky, a huge bougainvillea climbing across the pergolas, a swimming pool, in the centre or, more precisely, an Andalucian basin thirteen meters long, tiled with a mosaic carpet design. Here water falls from a white Carrara marble fountain to the songs of numerous small birds creating an idyllic scenario, in spite of being in the heart of central medina. A fireplace gives the winter evenings a cosy atmosphere, as do the impressive modern paintings, carpets, sofas and armchairs. There is a hi-fi system and an art deco Pleyel grand piano perfectly tuned for the pleasure of the guests. The Turkish bath or hammam in white marble with a relax room where, on request, a professional masseur can take care of the guests. There is a unique view of the medina and the Atlas Mountains from the two terraces that are sheltered partially with wooden pergolas and surrounded by large terracotta flower vases. Tables, comfortable armchairs with cushions and teak chaises-long allow guests to request breakfast and candle lit dinner, as well as to sunbathe during the day. On one of the terraces there is a pavilion with Moroccan sofas, cushions and lamps should some of the guests prefer a more intimate space. The resident Chef, Grand Diploma Cordon Bleu, has devoted his life to gastronomy and invites lovers of fine dining to experience his repertoire of Moroccan, Italian and French cuisine at the haute Cuisine riyad's Restaurant PEPE NERO. There are 4 double bedrooms, all with en-suite bathroom. All rooms have air-conditioning / heating system, telephone with external line, television with the major satellite channels (BBC, CNN etc.), Internet wireless connection is available and DVD in the music room. ... more less

The University of Kentucky Markey Cancer Center and the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society (LLS) recently hosted students from Henry County Middle School, among others, at the sixth annual "Meet the Researcher Day" on April 27 to 28, according to a news release. Meet the Researchers Day is a field trip given as a prize to schools in the region who successfully raise more than $1,000 for the LLS's Pennies for Patients campaign.
Henry County students raised $1,612.78, the UK officials said.
Over the last few weeks, I have received numerous calls about the yellow flowers growing in many crop fields. In some cases, a few callers have wondered if Henry County farmers were cultivating flowers.
I don't want to the bearer of bad news, but the yellow flower you are viewing is cressleaf groundsel. It is a winter annual weed that is very prolific and can be poisonous to cattle and horses.
Do you find yourself spending more money than you would like to at the grocery store? If so, you are certainly not alone.
According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, food is the third-largest expense for American households. Much of the expense associated with food shopping is due to overspending. Fortunately, there are many ways that you can save money at the grocery store without skimping on your needs.
Below are some suggestions that will help you to save on your next grocery shopping trip:
Make a grocery list.
Despite an long stretch of rain that soaked everything during the days leading up to the Kentucky Derby, the precipitation ceased long enough on May 4 for the elementary students at Eminence Indepedent Schools to continue with the tradition of the Derby Hat Parade.
There were four of us. We were boys on a mission of discovery. For more than a year, we had been trying to solve a mystery.
We were as silent as mice as we hid behind the trees on the west side of the church parking lot.
The early dark of the evening aided us in hiding. Any minute we knew we would see them.
Jack had seen them go over and had called the rest of us to watch.
It was only a matter of time before they came back.
They never stayed all that long, and they always came back.

Personally I feel like that depends on you and your capabilities. I started my own small window cleaning business. In the first month out the door we had actually brought in double what we spent to get started. So my start up was roughly $800 and I made $1700 the first month, $2200 the second month, and $2500 the third month. Although we can only operate the window cleaning portion during warm months we averaged about 7 working months and during the winter we did snow removal and only averaged roughly $600 a month... In those 7 months of cleaning windows (what we consider a fiscal year) We only averaged about $200 in soap, $100 in squeegees, & another $100 in towels. So we profited quite well although each month we put 30% into advertising to provide us with more customers. It was a great work from home business for us.

Brand Build
Ability Sequence
Not Updated For Current Season
The masteries shown here are not yet updated for the current season, the guide author needs to set up the new masteries. As such, they will be different than the masteries you see in-game.
Please read the entire guide before rating, commenting as I'm not the very best yet and this is just what works for me. I've used some other Brand builds and read the from front to back like Hextech Fireballz and Solo ranked games Brand and they were really helpful and I learned a lot.
So shoutout to
Welcome to my Brand the Eternal Flame guide. Here I'll be showing you the very basics of Brand and teach you about his moves.
What you can expect from this build:
Tips on Runes, Items, Masteries, combos, etc.
In depth guide.
Pros | Cons
- OP Combos like LeBlanc
- Very good team player
- Moderately easy to use
- Sort of Squishy
- Uses a lot of mana (Needs blue buff whenever you can get it)
- You get called an OP noob. :P
Offence Masteries Explanation:
The reason for the masteries in offence is for the Cooldown, AP, and Magic pen as an AP carry these masteries are really useful.
Utility Masteries Explanation:
The utility is for some basic survivability and the Blue buff. Use whatever you feel would work for you though.
Take 9 Greater Mark of Insight
Skill Sequence
I like to master Pillar of Flame before anything else as that is your hard hitting beast of a move then I'll move on to Conflagration because that is your opening combo move then I upgrade Sear (Make sure you upgrade your ult whenever available) remember, Brand's passive is actually useful! When I open my fights I'll do E W Q and boom, no health. :)
Summoner Spells
Ignite is self explanatory same as Flash. Alternative to Ignite could be Clarity if you feel you don't get enough mana (With blue buff whenever you can get it you'll be fine) Teleport also if you feel you don't get around the map fast enough but I stick with Ignite and flash.
I mean that's about it, simple build. Just remember your blue buff and get runes for the love of god. They're so useful.

One thing I love about Spring arriving and getting in to full swing is that I find it much easier to be healthier when it's sunny because I can put away the slow cooker and the warming stews and break out the salads and all the yummy bits to go with it. The only downside to this is the potential waste – I think it is much easier to use every part of a vegetable during the winter when you're making stews or when I am making "Nanny's Cauliflower Cheese!" where I chuck in every part of the cauliflower including the leaves. In the Spring and through the Summer though we want something lighter and fresher and one thing I am really keen on is salads – so how do we jazz up a salad?!
The wonderful people over at range oven cooker brand, Leisure Range Cookers set me the challenge to come up with a delicious Spring Recipe going all the way "From Root to Leaf" meaning that I would need to use every part of a fruit or vegetable of my choice and something that people usually throw away. This is part of their Food Trend Tribe Challenge and I was all about the "Veggie Tribe Challenge!" Something I have been seeing a lot of in the Supermarkets recently is watermelons – primarily because Alyssa keeps shouting out "BALL!" every time we pass them and wondering why I won't let her bounce one down the aisle?! I've been eating it a fair bit because it is a great sweet hit for me and also ups my fluid intake with it being so juicy – but I always chuck the rind away. Yeah I put it in the food waste bin so it will be recycled but it's still waste isn't it?!
I did some research and it turns out I don't need to throw it away – did you know you can make rinds and pickles with your watermelon rind?! Someone even likend it to replacing courgette in one of their recipes. So, I looked at a few and gathered some ingredients and gave it a try – oh my goodness!! It was delicious – not too sweet and it's going to be perfect for barbecues and picnics in the summer and I am so glad I made a couple of jars. I had a think about about I could serve with it and decided on a Beetroot, Asparagus & Chickpea Salad and a little hummus on the side too. I didn't actually tell my family what the "relish" was and just popped it on the table and said "oh that's my relish." They couldn't place the taste but loved it and it's definitely going to be a staple in our cupboard this summer which also means we get to eat lots more water melon too!
Rind from a watermelon
230ml apple cider vinegar
230ml cup water
255g cup sugar
85g crystalised ginger chunks
4 teaspoons salt
1 teaspoon chilli flakes
1 teaspoon allspice
1 star anise pod
This looks delish! I never thought to use all the outer parts!
Oh wow this looks incredible! I love relish and how wonderful that you've used every last bit of the watermelon 🙂 thank you for linking up to #dreamteam xx
Oooh, what a thrify dish! I would never have thought to have done that but I do love a good relish 🙂
We love watermelon too, but I never knew that you could use the rind to make a relish! Now that's surprising. It does sound delicious. Thank you for sharing with the #DreamTeam xx
What a clever idea! I will definitely be trying this #foodiefriday
Fab idea to waste less and make more! #foodiefriday
oo how clever. I'd never have thought of this. Thanks for sharing! #foodiefriday

In much of the public's eye, socialism and communism are not a concern. I have talked to many, both in my family, at work, and other places, who have no concern about these. In fact, if these give them what they want or perceive that they need, then they are all in. Not that they consider themselves to have this label themselves, but the "promises and hopes" that socialism or communism give are attractive - even over the loss of personal liberty. Ignorance of history and politics is rampant. Enough time has passed to deaden any concerns about the horrors that these two isms have wrought on the world. They are dead to any reasoning on these things. Some will listen and be influenced, but many are absolutely dead to hearing about concerns.
You are correct. Today's population associates communism with labor camps related to agriculture or industrial sweat shops ala Russia and China.
As long as jobs, automobiles, public transportation to and from malls, cell phones, stocked grocery stores and TV stations are accessible - people cannot envision deprivation in any form. They believe that should they face adversity - the government has a program to help; unemployment, food stamps, rent subsidies and medicaid.
Why worry?

A totally new paradigm for treating back pain
Virtually every American will suffer from back pain at some point. Dr. Jack Stern, a neurosurgeon and professor at Weill Cornell Medical College, brings relief to these millions of sufferers (including himself) who literally ache for help. Based on the latest scientific data, Dr. Stern developed a five-step solution with a multidisciplinary, holistic perspective that's been missing from conventional back pain wisdom. Step One: Unlock your back's unique pain code. Step Two: Prepare to work with health care professionals. Step Three: Ensure proper diagnosis. Step Four: Embrace various pathways to healing. Step Five: Live a life that supports a strong, healthy back. Engagingly written and chock-full of enlightening case studies, Ending Back Pain finally shares the program that's already helped more than 10,000 grateful patients.

text: Angels in America! This damn show completely fucked my brain apart. (Yes, THAT'S what did it.) Imagine it: my very first night in Seattle ever, reading the script cover-to-cover while listening to Diamanda Galás's Plague Mass, quivering and whimpering and clutching my wineglass like the last lifeboat out of hell. That is some serious psychological self-fuckery right there, gurl. It is of course an absurdly dramatic and very weird story that follows several seriously messed-up characters in New York City in the early days of AIDS, and it's got it all: buttsex, terror, pathos, lesions, vomit, evil Republicans, Mormons, a little more terror and vomit and lesions, serendipitous dream communication (this was long before iPhones, you understand, and that's how people used to talk in ye olden times—in dreams), lawyers, hotties, and history, all bound up together in some sort of crazy cosmic conspiracy involving angels and ghosts. Um, hullo? No self-respecting 'mo should ever miss this show. Intiman Theatre, 7:30 pm, $45–$56, all ages, through Sept 21.

When Donavon Frankenreiter was 10 years old, he got his first surfboard. Six years later, he picked up his first guitar. It was the beginning of a wildly creative journey: His improvisational twin obsessions have carried him around the globe and into his fans' hearts. Fresh off the release of his fourth album, Glow, the 37-year-old singer/songwriter/pro surfer admits he still thrives on simply taking the plunge. "We don't have a set show, if we did, I would go crazy," he says. "You never know what's going to happen. I love that element of surprise with music and surfing — you never catch the same wave twice."

Stunning Argentine model claims sex with Lionel Messi was like bedding 'dead body'
LIONEL Messi is one of the most gifted footie players of all time — but he's an amateur in the sack, it has been astonishingly claimed.
Stunning Argentinian model Xoana Gonzalez claims she bedded the prodigious Barca star in 2011 after a party.
But now the blonde beauty has dropped a bombshell — lifting the lid on the five times Ballon d'Or winner's shoddy performance in the bedroom.
She spilled the beans on Peruvian TV, saying: "It was many years ago. In truth he was very young. But he knew what he was doing, was not minor, that was the important thing.
"At one point I felt like I was with a dead body."Xoana Gonzalez
She added: "His security told me 'got someone you want to know'. I was curious to see who it was, and froze when I saw it was my idol Messi.
"When one plays across the whole pitch you expect someone to return the favour. I wanted him to show me more than that. At one point I felt like I was with a dead body."
Messi, who has recently dyed his hair a shade of platimum blonde, has come under fire for his performance on and off the pitch.
Busty blonde Daniella Chavez slammed the Argentina forward for his performance at Copa America, where he missed a crucial penalty.
Messi has been in a relationship with his childhood sweetheart Antonella Roccuzzo since age 20.
The pair separated when Messi, now 29, went to Barcelona at 13 to pursue his dream career.
But after a few flings with models, Messi decided to ask his childhood friend out.
Despite the fact they remain unmarried, the couple now they have two sons, Thiago and Mateo.

We think we've got something pretty special today. It's not every day that a golf company executive gives you a completely unfiltered and honest assessment of his company and where they fit in the industry today. When we spoke with Sean Toulon, Executive VP of TaylorMade-adidas golf, that's exactly what happened. The interview features some great soundbites for you TaylorMade fans...and you other guys too.
TaylorMade-adidas Golf is sometimes compared to the New York Yankees (before Mariano fell down, Jeter broke his foot, and A-Rod became A-Roid) because, well...if it's your team on top you love the team on top. But if it's not your team on top...well...screw those guys. It's also probably not a stretch to compare what happens when they dial-up the new product hype machine to a Justin Bieber concert.
For TaylorMade fans it's almost music, and it's definitely an experience - another round of awesome gear from the #1 Performance Brand in Golf.
For detractors, claims of 17 yards...and then 10 more amount to insufferable, detestable noise. Dear God, make it stop.
100% headache guaranteed.
Whether you love them (fanboy), despise them (hater), or are one of the few who can legitimately claim indifference (comatose), it's hard to make a rational argument that anyone else in the industry can waggle the proverbial needle quite like TaylorMade. These guys get people talking, which is exactly why I wanted to talk to them.
At the recent PGA Show I tracked down Sean Toulon, Executive VP of TaylorMade-adidas Golf. Don't let the suit fool you. This Toulon guy isn't afraid to go off-script.
What I got was nearly 10 minutes of what, by golf industry or golf executive standards anyway, amounts to Must See TV. Here's just a sampling of some of the things Mr. Toulon shared with me:
Just A Few Of The Things You Will Hear In The Video
Watch the video (the whole damn thing) to learn more about TaylorMade as company, because even if you think you know everything about TaylorMade Golf, you're probably going to learn something. And if you're one of those guys who hates absolutely everything TaylorMade does, you might just come away from this feeling differently.

Overcoming Regulatory Challenges to Development in an Urban Environment
March 30 @ 11:30 am – 1:30 pm
Event Navigation
New development increasingly consists of higher density urban infill or redevelopment, in established urban areas. There is often public resistance to such development, through regulatory proceedings and litigation, if it is perceived as changing existing neighborhood character or failing to benefit existing residents. San Diego Development Services Director Robert Vacchi, former San Diego Planning Commissioner Patricia Butler, Sudberry Properties executive Marco Sessa, and land use attorney Cary Lowe will discuss the regulatory challenges for planners, developers and attorneys in connection with development in urban locations, and means of addressing those challenges.

If you own a car, you should know something about how it operates. Still, most owners don't know anything about their vehicle. To help you out, here are a list of tips to deal with the challenges of auto repair. Read on to ensure that fixing your car is much easier next time.
Be sure that you have an A.S.E. certified mechanic before they are allowed to work on your vehicle. This kind of certification tells you that whoever will be working on your car has a couple years of experience and has passed a test. This is one good way to separate the wheat from the chaff when picking a good mechanic.
Battery Charger
Have a battery charger in your car at all times. Having a car battery die is a common problem, so keeping a battery charger in your car can help you and others in this situation. Learn how to find connection points so that you can use the charger with ease.
Do you understand what the estimated cost for your fix is? Ask any questions you have about the service before they start work on the car. Don't end up surprised by extra fees.
You don't always need a mechanic when you have trouble with your car. Many things can be easily fixed. Check online to find out what might be wrong with your car. If it's easy, you can repair the problem yourself, and save money too.
Be sure to keep your car's records. Store them inside the glove compartment just in case you have to see a mechanic all of a sudden. Auto repair professionals likely will want to see those records. These documents can help the mechanic figure out the problem quicker.
If you're headlights don't appear to be as bright as they once did, you may want to check their cleanliness. Dirt and grease buildup can significantly dull your headlights. Wash them with a good glass cleaner and see as well as you should.
Think about locating a person that fixes vehicles and owns a garage. There are many mechanics who work from home who do excellent work and cost less to do the job. This may result in substantial savings, and you can also provide such mechanics with much-needed work.
Know what all the lights stand for on your dashboard and be aware of when they go off. They are there to help you, so take advantage of that. If you keep ignoring them it'll make the problem worse.
Just because the days are colder doesn't mean you should avoid washing your vehicle. While it may seem pointless, winter is the most damaging time for your car. Roads filled with sand and salt can really do some corrosive damage to your car. After washing your car, dry it thoroughly to prevent ice formation.
You don't necessarily have to visit your auto dealer to get work done. You should be able to find reliable mechanics in your area, either by going to a repair shop or an independent garage. If you have found a reliable mechanic, don't hesitate to use them.
Warranties are extremely important when you take your car to get repaired, especially if you get expensive parts. For any parts that you order, inquire about their warranty from the mechanic. Ask for a print out of the warranty for your personal records.
If you get an estimate from a mechanic, tell them you need a few hours to think about it before making your decision. You can then check with other auto repair shops so that you can compare costs. If you can get a cheaper price, simply pay the mechanic for the work they've done and go somewhere else.
Driving a car includes the responsibility of maintaining proper condition. Too many people do not understand what steps to take to have repairs performed on their cars. The strategies you just read will help you figure out what you need to do to protect your car.

Unanswered: use docmdopenform,,,acFormAdd and only add one record?
is it possible to open a form in dataentry mode and only allow the user to insert 1 record?
What happens a lot is that a user makes some sort of mistake and a new records is created with lots of empty fields.

Ho, thanx for the reply.
I don't want to program all kinds of msg warnings is records aren't filled before going to a new blank record, rather I would like for a user to only insert one at a time (then save, then back in edit mode).

Unanswered: Oracle ERP Apps OLTP VLDB Partitioning ILM
Hi Folks,
Based upon publicly available Internet searches, version 8i range partitioning appears to have been used with great success to improve both performance and manageability of Very Large DataBases. This includes the use of tablespace partitioning to conveniently drop partitions in a form of automated Information Lifecycle Management when the data's usefullness expires. In nearly every example I can find, these tend to be custom data warehouse type applications. This is understandable in that they tend to hold large amounts of historical transactions to be reported over time, and the general strategy is to remove these performance degrading transactions from the OnLine Transaction Processing application.
Now consider the following:
You have an Oracle e-Business Suite implementation (namely Financials Accounts Payable) that has a large number of daily transactions,
A corporate policy that multiple years of transactions to be maintained for historical inquiry
A large user community that doesn't want to learn how to use a different historical inquiry tool. They want to keep the data within the standard Oracle Apps GUI.
All of a sudden, you have a VL OLTP DB that could seriously use some Tablespace Partitioning, and even 9i Compression features to make it more manageable and perform better, while also leaving the data inside the original application database. A vendor designed application database schema that needs some 'custom storage configuration modifications' that are easily maintainable across future upgrades.
Have any of you had success implementing Tablespace Partitioning and / or Compression features in the Oracle e-Business Suite application environment?
Any failures or gotcha's?
Any Best Practices you would care to share?
Any analytical 'partitioning design' schemas you would care to share?
Any implementing code you would like to share?

PEOPLE FREQUENTLY ASK WHY FUJIFILM NEVER OFFERED CLASSIC CHROME AS A RENDERING OPTION FOR THEIR X-PRO1 AND X-E1 CAMERAS. I confess that I've googled to see if this update is available on a few occasions.
It isn't, or at least the availability is not obvious.
Classic Chrome didn't appear as an in-camera option until the X-Trans II sensor appeared in later cameras. The lack of firmware upgrades for it on the for the X-Pro1 and XE-1 are thought to be connected with the way in which the newer sensor works.
But, both the X-Pro1 and X-E1 are boxed with a custom version of SilkyPix a RAW converter that is specially adapted for the Fujifilm X-Trans sensor. Kodachrome was included within the rendering options available even before the end of February 2015. I am currently using SilkyPix version 184.108.40.206. The Kodachrome option is often overlooked because the .jpg files from all the X-Series cameras are so good many, especially professionals, avoid using RAW. RAW processing increases workflow time, and when you're busy, rather than a hobbyist, time is money. Also the option is marked 'K', rather than Chrome.
If you really want a 'chrome experience' from your X-Pro1 or X-E1 processing a RAW file using SilkyPix is a fast and painless way of achieving one version of this classic look. Not everyone is happy with the result from the default SilkyPix K setting. You may want to play around with it.
The following image is a Standard (Provia) .jpg from my XE-1, and the images below it are variations processed using the different methods described in the texts below them.
SilkyPix Kodachrome RAW Conversion
Three Versions of Kodachrome 64 from Alien Skin
The colors in the default image are quite nice, but they're not anything like Kodachrome. This is emulated far better with SilkyPix. But, as an experiment I fired up Alien Skin Exposure. It offers many versions of the classic film. Using Alien Skin's Exposure also defaults to adding film grain to your file, an in-camera feature only just released on the Fujifilm X-Pro2.
I well remember this film from my childhood, and also Kodachrome II, which replaced it during the 1970s. Originally, the movie version of this film, this was balanced for artificial light and an amber filter was used to correct the color for daylight.
The final version of Kodachrome was popular with photographers, such as Steve McCurry, working for National Geographic. Here the film was at the top of its game. This is the version produced using Alien Skin Exposure.
A Quick and Dirty in-camera Classic Chrome tweak
Alien Skin provides very nice renditions across a range of films, including the three versions of Kodachrome illustrated above. One advantage of using Alien Skin Exposure is that it can also add film grain to your files, adding realism to the film simulation. But, SilkyPix and Alien Skin can't produce Classic Chrome in the camera. After some Googling I came across a report of someone achieving a very approximate workaround by using custom settings on their X-Pro1 and X-E1 cameras. To achieve the result below select Astia and toggle Color to -2 and Higlight and Shadow to +1. I'm unsure that the result looks like Kodachrome, but it is quite pleasing.
For those wishing for the more vintage look it's possible to process the RAW file in the camera. To get this antiqued effect make your RAW conversion settings: Film S Astia, Color -2, Highlights +1, Shadows +1, WB Shift + 2 Red -1 Blue. This takes just a few seconds 🙂
Processing RAW images in your camera is both quick and simple. The only problem with the method is that you cannot see the result until after you press the button. You may not be able to achieve the exact look of Classic Chrome boxed with the X-Pro2, X-E2s or X 100T, but if you own the X-Pro 1, or X-E1, you don't need to throw your camera away because it lacks Classic Chrome in the menu. Just experiment with SilkyPix or in Camera conversions until you achieve an effect that suits your style of photography.

West Virginia's Reckless Driving Laws and Penalties
Read about West Virginia's reckless driving laws and the consequences of a conviction.
Reckless driving is a crime in West Virginia. The offense is defined as driving "in willful or wanton disregard for the safety of persons or property." The term "willful" refers to conduct that is intentional or purposeful. And "wanton" generally means the person understood but disregarded the consequences of the conduct.
(W. Va. Code Ann. § 17C-5-3(a) (2017).)
Reckless Driving Penalties
Reckless driving is a misdemeanor in West Virginia. The possible penalties of a conviction are:
- First offense. A first reckless driving conviction carries five to 90 days in jail and/or $25 to $500 in fines.
- Repeat offense. For a second or subsequent reckless driving conviction, the driver faces ten days to six months in jail and/or $50 to $1,000 in fines. License revocation is mandatory for anyone convicted of reckless driving three times within a period of 24 months.
- Offenses involving serious injuries. For offenses involving "serious bodily injury" to another person, the driver is looking at ten days to six months in jail and/or $50 to $1,000 in fines.
A reckless driving conviction will also add six points to the motorist's driving record. Accumulating 12 or more points within a two-year period leads to license suspension.
(W. Va. Code Ann. §§ 17B-3-5(5), 17C-5-3(c)-(e), 91-5-7 (2017).)
Reckless Driving and DUI Charges ("Wet Reckless")
In some states, it's possible for a driver who's charged with driving under the influence (DUI), to "plea bargain" for a lesser charge. When a DUI is plea bargained down to a reckless driving charge, it's sometimes called a "wet reckless."
West Virginia law doesn't prohibit plea bargaining in DUI cases. So, for someone who's accused of drunk driving in West Virginia, convincing a prosecutor to reduce the charge to reckless driving might be possible.
Generally speaking, sentencing law is complex and varies from jurisdiction to jurisdiction. For example, a statute might list a "minimum" jail sentence that's longer than the actual amount of time (if any) a defendant will have to spend behind bars. All kinds of factors can affect actual punishment, including the severity of the damage at issue, credits for good in-custody behavior, and jail-alternative work programs.
If you face criminal charges, consult an experienced criminal defense lawyer. An attorney with command of the rules in your jurisdiction will be able to explain the law as it applies to your situation.
Talk to an Attorney
The facts of every case are different. If you've been arrested for or charged with reckless driving, get in contact with an experienced defense attorney. A qualified attorney can explain how the law applies to the facts of your case and help you decide on how best to handle your situation.

The HVACR industry is in the midst of ever changing regulations regarding refrigerant options and energy efficiency mandates.
The HVACR industry is in the midst of ever changing regulations regarding refrigerant options and energy efficiency mandates.
Beginning March of 2017, the DOE imposed a 30-50 percent reduction in energy consumption on reach-in, stand-alone commercial refrigeration equipment, as measured in kWh per day. This is the first of many significant energy regulations to impact the commercial refrigeration market in the coming years, including: new efficiency targets on automatic ice makers, walk-in coolers and freezers.
|Product Category
|Stand-alone, Reach-ins
|Walk-in coolers and freezers (WICF)
|Automatic commercial ice makers
|Energy Reduction Requirement
|20% to 50% (depending on class)
|20% to 50% (depending on class)
|5% to 25%
|Effective Date
|March 2017
|January 2020
|January 2018
|CRE measure in kWh/24-hour day
WICF measured in three major components.AWEF measured using AHRI-1250 testing standards
|ACIM measured in kWh/100lbs ice
The EPA has changed the listing of many common refrigerants to "unacceptable for use" in many commercial refrigeration applications. Among these "delisted" refrigerants include R-404A, R-507A, R-410A, R-407A/C/F and HFC-134a. The EPA continues to propose additional "change of status" notices through as addendums to the original 2015 ruling. These result in both the introduction of acceptable new refrigerant substitutes and the delisting or phasing down of the high-GWP substances.
The timing of the DOE and EPA regulations poses further challenges to OEMs who must decide to approach each ruling separately or combine compliance of both regulations into a single design cycle. Keep in mind that the entire compliance and certification process goes well beyond the design phase. OEMs will need to thoroughly test their units for requisite UL and NFC certifications and make the necessary design adjustments to achieve DOE compliance.
