Guild Wars 2 is redefining the future of online role-playing games with intense, action-oriented combat, customisable personal story, innovative dynamic events that have a real and persistent effect on the surroundings, world-class PvP and no subscription fees.
Key Features for Guild Wars 2:
Dynamic Events. Explore an ever-changing fantasy world where your actions have a real and persistent effect on your surroundings. Dynamic events respond and change based on how you react to them. Will you defend that village from rampaging centaurs or let it burn? The choice is yours!
Personal Stories. Your personal story begins with key decisions you make when creating your characters biography and then evolves with each fateful choice you make in the game. You decide who lives, who dies and what path youll walk in life, and those choices have a lasting effect on both your personal story and your private home instance.
Action-Oriented Combat. Experience a new kind of high-impact, fastpaced combat. Attack on the move, dodge and roll away from enemy blows, team up with other players for powerful combos, take advantage of handy environmental weapons, and unleash spectacular skills and spells. Guild Wars 2 is putting the fun back into fantasy combat.
Sprawling Dungeons. Only the most experienced groups of adventurers dare enter the dungeons, huge private adventure areas where the risks are immense but the rewards are great. Dungeons take many forms, but in each you follow a gripping plot in story mode and then branch into the even more challenging free-roaming explorable mode.
Competitive PvP. Face off against small teams of other players in intense matches where skill and audacity determine the victor. Battle over key objectives on a wide variety of maps loaded with game-changing secondary objectives like cannons and trebuchets. Make a name for your team during the daily, weekly and annual PvP tournaments.
Worlds Collide. Prepare for battlefield combat on an epic scale! In world vs. world, armies of hundreds of players from competing servers wage war across four sprawling maps, seizing objectives and scoring points for their side. Lay siege to castles, raid enemy supply caravans, build weapons of war and clash with other players in truly massive battles. Theres always something to do on the battlefield and new players can start WvW right away!

I mean, there are guys who date dogs here, ugly girls. However, if you are persistent, and have the game, then you can catch a cute young model fish. It is an unbelievable feeling, having a youthful hot sexy 21 years-old Thai girl. That is not a bar girl, has not at any time been in bars, never smokes, drinks.... In Europe, you can dream about this, but here, it can happen. I dated beautiful girl before, she though she can pull my strings and go to USA for one year for a stupid nanny job, and I will wait for her. Of course that did not happen. I dump her when she went. However, here you have another girl, maybe prettier. I think so, but surely every guy would give his right ball to be with a girl like this. I mean men are going crazy about this girl. They look at her, smile, want attention. Her friend has to scare men away. I saw this, when she waited for me and three men wanted to talk to her, on another occasion another dude, her friend; uglier fat chick screamed at the guy to leave them alone. So funny! Here are some images her fat friend took in her shop, where she sells clothes. The only problem about this girl is poor English language skill.
Only In Thailand, Having A Young Model Girl Is Possible
Of course Thai girls are very cute,charming and beautiful .Thai Girls are for you to make you feel good and happy. They are for sure there for your good time, they will talk with you, entertain you as well, But it is also true they are just after your money. if you will spend more money you will definitely get back more......…….. here i introduce a new thailand thai girls site which gives us a lot of information..................
Friends of mine say that "with Women you always pay one way or the other"
I did not agree, I got involved, sex was great, but as genuine as she behaved it was not real.
We got married, she got ID and citizenship, I got her kid over, got citizenship for them too, then it all started to go downhill.
On one level there are the cultural differences, then there are issues about class and values.
Communication is key in a relationship, so if there is no language how on earth will either of you express yourself properly.
Mine taught English and still intonation is not understood and so gradually leads to her despising me because she misunderstood this or that.
Eye opener for me was when I had to have emergency hospital treatment, it became apparent that she really did not care.
Then the behaviour when money was tight.
Eventually they take you for all you have and you lose the companion, partner, your kids as well as the whore. Strong word, but I am coming around to my friends way of thinking.
I did not connect with women in my own country because the first questions they asked you were whether you had a house, what car you drove and what job did you do and "oh that sounds interesting, is it lucrative".
Women all want a man to be a hero and take care of them but pretty soon your confidence rubs off on them and they take you for all they can.
So when you divide the costs by the number of fucks or even the days they put up with your sorry ass, you have a "rate".
So are you any worse off with a bar girl, escort or streetwalker? At least you know the "rate" upfront, know what you are paying for, can limit your budget.
Yes I sound like a cynical old bastard, but women will do that to you!
I am sure they are not all like that, but give them time.
I am sorry for your bad experience. My lesson is never marry, date all your life. If you are with a girl long time and have kids with her, ok, give her the house, they are your kids. But other than that, no way Hose.
Be prepared to loose money if oyu sign your house in her name. That is a highly risky. Be smart, dont get married, Date her, when it is over, rinse and repeat. I was badly burned too. Did not loose any money though but left a piece of my heart there. It was bad but got over it after a while and find a new girlfriend.
That girl is very ordinary bro and in no way is she a model, in fact she's about a 6.
I undestand, you have different taste, but you should see her walking around with hot dress, i have never see better booty in Thailand, period, and men are just goingcrazy for her, whistling, turning around, approaching when I am not beside her etc.
For me she is 8.5, thanks for the comment anyways

A small, beloved beach with a fantastic view of the mysterious island of Es Vedra, which lies only several hundred meters from the shore. The beach itself is sandy to one side, more pebbly to the other, and in summer is extremely popular. Backed by cliffs, it is situated at the end of a steep road. So if you're a nervous driver you may not want to attempt it as during busy times the road is reduced to single track due to the number of parked vehicles. This is a lovely beach to body surf on breezy days when the waves get a little higher and bash the shore. Tip: visit this beach in summer to watch the sunset. Facilities: Three excellent beach restaurants (one renowned for it's fresh fish).

8 years and no one has been pushed down the stairs
It's hard to believe that neither of us has pushed the other down the stairs yet, although, there was that time I fell on the stairs while Mr. Happy was in the living room - he says he has nothing to do with it, but I remain suspicious.
(I always said, if I had married the guy I was dating in high school I probably would have pushed him down the stairs by now. Which really isn't all that funny, considering that one of my ancestors died following a fall down the stairs. Hmmmm...)
Anyhoo, we're still married, we're still pretty darned happy with each other... in fact, I'd say that the last few years, although our most difficult for other reasons, have brought us closer together. We are a team. It's "us" vs. "them". We have discovered that understand each other better than other people do and we forgive each other the quirks that others would find maddening.
I've learned a lot about myself and about Mr. Happy in the last eight years:
I've learned that marriage is hard. It's not: "Woohoo, we had a big party, we said some vows and now it's all just happy, happy, joy, joy for the rest of our lives." It's every single day hard. Every single day you wake up and have to remember to put the other person first and hope that they are doing the same for you. If you're just in it for yourself, then you'll either kill your partner's self-esteem and trample all over them for the rest of your miserable lives together or your partner will figure it out pretty quick and you'll be at the end of the driveway with your suitcase and a footprint on your ass.
I've learned that men really do think in a completely different way than women do. And it's very frustrating for both partners.
I've learned that I can forgive many things, but forgetting a full carton of milk on the counter where it will sit for the entire day, will almost always send me over the edge.
I've learned that I can be a complete harpy and Mr. Happy will still pull me into his arms and hug the crazy away.
I've learned that when I feel like I don't belong anywhere, like no one understands me and I don't fit in, that I will always fit in and belong with Mr. Happy.
I've learned that men carrying laundry baskets or tearing down sheds are way more attractive than silly underwear models.
I've learned that the simple act of putting pjs in the bathroom for Mr. Happy to wear after he gets home from work at some ungodly hour of the night can be seen as an act of love and consideration, when in actual fact, I just don't want him to turn on the light and rummage through drawers in our bedroom while I'm sleeping.
Happy Anniversary.

WOW! Eight years! Congrats! Aren't we the same age?! You must have gotten married early. This is a true feat in the modern world and I am duly impressed. I loved all of your statements re marriage. Go Team Happy!!!

Yay! Congrats to you and Mr. Happy!

Congratulations! I so much agree with everything you said about marriage.

Happy Anniversary!
After 6 yrs of marriage, I agree that the characteristics of a successful union is about the "us vs them" team and mutual respect/admiration. It makes me happy to know that the "Happy's" are happy (snort).
I bought Mr Moe a card for our most recent anniversary. It said something to the effect of:
Cover - Our marriage is a strange and wonderful thing.
Inside - I'm strange and you're wonderful.
It is still my favourite card ever. - 8:42 AM
- meegiemoo said...
Congratulations! I hope you have great plans for celebration.
I agree wholeheartedly with your lessons, especially this one:
"I've learned that I can be a complete harpy and Mr. (Moo) will still pull me into his arms and hug the crazy away."
We hit #9 in June and then July came which was the worst month of our lives together - but it's that word "together" that makes all the difference. - 9:49 AM

Once more without types (I can't abide typos).
We don't have an anniversary (something to do with not having a wedding, I guess!). But your reflections on the meaning of marriage were very thought provoking regardless! - 1:31 PM

Ack! I made a typo when trying to type typo! Oh, the irony!

Happy Anniversary! May you have many, many more!

Happy Anniversary! I wish you many years of joy, happiness and no shoving...

Happy Anniversary to you and Mr. Happy! You have learned much wisdom at an early age grasshopper.
- Kristen said...
Happy Anniversary! My husband (Mr. Kasmo?) and I just celebrated #7 (for which the traditional gift is WOOL, and he's the one that looked it up!). One of your lessons learned made me get tears because it's true for me, too: I've learned that I can be a complete harpy and Mr. Happy will still pull me into his arms and hug the crazy away.
Anyway, I was all touched and emotional so I copied that into an IM to Mr. Kasmo, and his reply was, "OK, so you like hugs. I knew that." - 10:47 PM
- Lesley said...
Happy Anniversary! Oddly it sounds like your relationship is a lot like what Phil and I share...which is very encouraging as we end day 4 of our marriage! Keep up the good work!
- Lynne said...
Sorry, delayed good wishes on account of stupidity!
I liked whoever mentioned the "happy's are happy" it made me think "happy happy, joy joy"

The 2012 MINI Cooper Clubman is a compact hatchback offered in standard, S, and John Cooper Works trim levels. The standard FWD Cooper Clubman is powered by a 1.6-liter 4-cylinder engine that produces 121 hp and 114 lb-ft of torque while the Cooper Clubman S comes equipped with a turbocharged 1.6-liter 4-cylinder engine that produces 181 hp and 177 lb-ft of torque. For increased performance a John Cooper Works trim level grants the driver a twin turbocharged 1.6-liter 4-cylinder engine that produces 208 hp and 192 lb-ft of torque. A 6-speed manual comes standard on all trims but drivers also have the choice of an optional 6-speed automatic. Fuel mileage falls within an EPA estimated range of 25 mpg city to 35 mpg highway, depending on model selection. Features include HD radio, adaptive xenon headlamps, performance suspension, club door, fully electronic throttle, and the MINI center-mounted speedometer. Safety is comprised of dynamic stability control, dynamic traction control, 6 airbags with air curtain system, anti-lock brake security, and an ultra rigid body. The Cooper Clubman is covered by a 4-year/50,000-mile warranty.
The MINI Cooper is one of the most exciting and stylish cars on the market. All models offer fun, agile handling. The base model features excellent fuel economy at 28 mpg city and 37 mpg highway, while the convertible allows for carefree, top-down motoring at the push of a button. The Cooper S brings serious performance to the MINI lineup and the Clubman adds extra space for sharing the MINI motoring experience with friends. The John Cooper Works package, first available in 2009, adds performance tweaks to turn the already go-kart-like MINI into the hottest hatchback on the road.
2012 sees only minor updates to the MINI Cooper, most of which are related to customization options. Debuting this year is the 'MINI Yours' feature, which includes an array of additional interior and exterior color and upholstery options. Other MINI Yours features include a leather instrument panel cover, 2-tone steering wheel and 17-inch wheels for the Cooper and Cooper S. All Coopers have been given an optional new interior mirror with compass, and hardtop Coopers get new 15-inch wheels.
All the Coopers in the MINI lineup are praised for their agility and fun-to-drive factor, and all of that returns for 2012.

Cats may be curious about a lot of things, but people are also curious about cats! These adorable animals have some pretty strange habits. Since our furry friends refuse to answer the question, "Kitty, why are you doing that?" take a look at this expert advice for guidance about your goofy furball. After reading, the connection between you and your pet should be stronger than ever.
Still looking for answers about your pussycat's peculiar behavior? Send all your pet relationship questions to firstname.lastname@example.com.
After my cat goes No. 2 in the litter box, she runs around the house like a feline gone wild. Why does she get so hyped-up post-poop?
RELATED: Learn more about cat stress.
"I've seen cats with no medical issues do this, so maybe they just feel so good after relieving themselves," says feline specialist Drew Weigner of The Cat Doctor, a feline specialty hospital, in Atlanta, Ga.
"However, there may be a medical issue that causes painful elimination and the cat runs from the litter box after defecation in an attempt to get away from the pain."
Cats with diarrhea can experience some discomfort after defecation. It's important to check the litter box and apart from examining stool consistency, check for signs of blood or mucus in the stool. Cats suffering from constipation can also be uncomfortable while defecating. Other signs of constipation include straining to defecate, vomiting, and defecating outside the litter box.
"I recently had a patient who was obviously in pain during defecation and ran from the litter box, but had no other symptoms such as diarrhea, constipation, signs of blood, etc," says Weigner. "An endoscopy examination showed he had severe inflammatory bowel disease and treatment resolved his symptoms."
The bottom line: err on the side of caution and seek veterinary advice.
If we turn on Animal Planet or National Geographic, my cat gets up close to the TV and watches. Does he know there are other animals on screen?
"Yes!" Says Professor Nicholas Dodman of Tufts Cummings School of Veterinary Medicine in Grafton, Mass.
"There's no doubt that television has an animal audience, even if their attention span varies from a few minutes to several hours. Dogs will sit and watch those things that interest them, such as other dogs, squirrels, cats and rabbits. Similarly, cats will watch what interests them such as birds, butterflies, fish and rabbits."
Cats have also been known to watch horse-racing, tennis matches and other sports. It's the movement on the screen as well as certain on sounds that hold their attention.
You can leave the TV on when your cat is home alone or pop a feline DVD into the machine that plays on a continuous loop, such as "Cat Sitter Volumes 1, 2 and 3," available online from various online pet stores and also on Amazon.com.
My cat likes me to stand there and watch, and sometimes even pet her, while she eats. Why?
RELATED: Lose weight with your pet.
"Your cat loves you and loves your company. And I am sure you love her and enjoy being around her. Thus you have reinforced the habit of eating when you are watching and petting her," explains certified cat behaviorist Marilyn Krieger.
"As endearing and as sweet as this is, your cat should be comfortable eating without an audience too."
Feline independence at meal times is important in case you are delayed at work or have to travel and get a pet-sitter in to take care of her in your absence.
Sometimes for seemingly no reason at all, my cat sits by the window or backdoor and just caterwauls. There's nothing going on outside, and when we open the door, she just runs away. What's that about?
Cats are great communicators and have an amazing large repertoire of sounds and vocal noises to attract the attention of humans, other cats and also to indicate their wants and needs.
Caterwauling--a sound that could be written phonetically like RRRR-YOWWW-EEOW-RRR-YOW-ORRR--is usually made by an unneutered male cat in heat and looking to get out for a night on the tiles. It's also a sound that cats make when trying to indicate to another cat that it's trespassing. Felines are very territorial creatures.
Cats that interact a lot with people have a wider vocabulary. They are smart and know what sounds elicit certain reactions from their favorite people.
Because your cat runs away when you open the door, she may just be trying to attract your attention by saying "play with me."
Try initiating a game when she runs off. Of course, you could be setting yourself up for a game every time she calls for your attention in this manner. But that's okay. Interacting with your cat is a great way to endorse the human-animal bond.
My cat stalks people, including my roommate, my boyfriend and friends who visit. He'll jump at them and "fake" attack. He doesn't stalk me, though. Why not?
RELATED: Read more by Sandy Robins.
"This is difficult to answer without knowing how you interact with your cat, so I cannot comment on why he doesn't stalk you, but stalks and play-attacks other people," says certified cat behaviorist Marilyn Krieger.
"Don't let anyone in the household play with him using their hands or play stalking games," cautions Krieger. "At some point, someone may have inadvertently encouraged this behavior by playing or interacting with him when he stalked or play-attacked. So he thinks this is how to initiate play and interaction with his favorite people and will continue to do it. Your friends and roommate should give him a 'time out' at the first sign of stalking or attacks. It's easy. Just turn around and leave the room whenever the cat play attacks or stalks. Don't interact at all. Time outs are short, only about 10 to 15 seconds."
However, cats love to interact with their people and should be played with multiple times in a day. Krieger suggests investing in wand-styled toys as well as other interactive toys. Apart from a well-stocked toy box, make sure there are elevated areas for jumping on and climbing such as a nice wall, kitty condo, or cat tree. There are lots of special cat shelves and hammocks that you can add to spice up a play area too.

December 06 2012 at 4:24 PM Report abuse Permalink rate up rate down ReplyI'm having a problem with my cat. I've had her since she was a kitten and over the years she has become so distant. She doesn't let me hold her. If I pet her for too long, which is like 5 seconds, she gets mad. She likes one of my family members more. We both play with the cat and play with her rough sometimes( I play more with her though with like a string or something), but she shows way more affection to that family member instead of me. I'm the one her gives her food and cleans up after her yet she always goes to that other person and lays down on them and purrs and rubs her face against their's, unlike me she bites and scratches me or growl when she sees me walk into the room. This makes me sad. Also, I am the one who usually punishes her, like spraying her with water or putting her in the bathroom when she does something bad, is that also why she doesn't like me?

I squirt him with squirt bottle. He retreats. He returns. Rake, rake. I have to get up and pen him in the bathroom or cat carrier. Then I'm awake & probably won't be able to get back to sleep. I never feed him before 5am and I have been feeding him right before I got to bed for a long time. Any ideas how I can get him to leave me alone until at least 5am?

I did all the correct things about introducing the kitten into the house. And sure enough they were tussling and running after each other. Yah!!! But lately, Frankie, the older cat doesn't like the kitten anymore. He growls and swipes at the kitten and doesn't like to be around him at all. Their playing and chasing have stopped. Does anyone have any ideas? It's so discouraging to see two cats who liked each other and played together no longer do that. The kitten doesn't know what's happened to his buddy. Thanks for any thoughts.

text: My husband and I have one child that is 16 months old. He is the joy of our lives, and I thank God everyday for blessing us with this little angel. I feel bad that my husband wants to have more children soon, and I do as well, but our financial situation is not great. We both work, but it is tough paying all of the bills and having a little extra to take our son out every now and then. I would love more children soon, but I would feel guilty getting pregnant now when we are hurting financially. My husband is a loving man, and he understands our situation, but he says everyone has problems and our decision should not be based solely on our finances. Any thoughts?

sorry this is so long but i might be getting a border collie puppy, i dont know yet, but i have some questions. first how old can you start exercising them? i know you have to wait till there bones are matured or something to that nature. i know you cant get them around other dogs till they have all there shots, which is around 12 or 16 weeks, i forgot i have it written down somewhere, so what have you guys done with your pup till then to keep them exercised or stimulated? i am thinking of using clicker training i have never done it before but have read alot on it and think it is a very good way of training. have any of you used this way? or if there is a better way to train please let me know. i am also thinking of getting the puppy when he is old enough into frisbee when is the right time to start introducing him to the Frisbee? i am going to crate train so any suggestions about that would be great also tips on potty training. thank you for your advice.
Replies to a couple of your questions:
Clicker training - yes. I found it very helpful. If it is your first time, you may want to sign up for a local class since the click timing is so important, it is easier to have someone right there to help you.
Exercising - I am guessing you mean 'formal sport training'? All dogs need exercise. I don't think that young pups should be exercised by repetitive actions - i.e. jumping a bar, chasing a ball endlessly, frisbee or running with a human partner. I like to let a young pup free-range in the woods and fields, if you have that type of geography around you. They exercise at their own pace - stopping and starting, jumping small and big sticks, going uphill and downhill, etc.
Frisbee - Jedismom has a good suggestion about finding a slightly older pup that has toy drive since you have a better idea if s/he has the desire to play, and you would be able to start training sooner (depending on how old the pup is). Look into nearby frisbee clubs and ask questions to make sure they place a priority on the dog's health.
Good Luck,

Most runners wouldn't describe themselves as limber or loose—especially after logging a five-, 10-, or 20-miler. But practicing yoga after your workouts can remedy that. By increasing blood and oxygen flow to muscles, tendons, and ligaments, yoga boosts flexibility, reduces soreness, and speeds recovery. This series of six poses targets runners' tightest and weakest spots, improving range of motion and strength to keep muscles and joints healthy. And as a bonus, you'll also develop balance, core strength, and focus. Done together, these exercises make the perfect post-run routine.

Last week we were joined by Junior Lighting TD and Escape graduate Alastair Cross for a webinar that shows another side to VFX. The Hollywood side of VFX is probably why most of us want to work in the CG industry, but CG artists are putting their skills and knowledge to good use in lots of different areas. If you missed this webinar, the great news is we recorded it and the recording is now available to watch on our YouTube channel.
Alessio Bertotti @ Pixomondo Hamburg
Escapee Alessio Bertotti answers some questions on VFX and tells us about his time at Pixomondo Hamburg.
A Career in VFX… a world of possibility!
It is a truth universally acknowledged, that a career in Visual Effects is far from boring. As far as careers go, this is an industry that keeps us on our toes, offering us a never ending number of new creative project ideas to be realised, fun new problems to be solved and new technologies to be developed. This is an industry that constantly pushes us to learn and discover more.
All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy
So, many of you will be on wind down for the long weekend which is almost upon us, but for us here at Escape it's business as usual, well, almost...
There's gnome place like home...
So last night, there I was, enjoying having the flat to myself, only half watching a re-run of Grand Designs when the ad break came on and something made me sit up and take notice of the tv screen…
Getting a taste for VFX
After a busy day on reception yesterday with the Academy Tour I was certainly looking forward to a more tranquil start to my morning…
Davi Stein meets Davy Jones!
This morning, Escape Relationship Manager Anita Gribble and Head of 2D Davi Stein, took students on a trip to the heart of the West End – to see the newly opened Double Negative facility in Great Portland Street, which opened just 3 months ago! As is always the case with our studio visits, everyone set off early with an unquenchable thirst for knowledge and a hunger for adventure.
On the edge of what's possible
Being a huge fan of Audrey Hepburn, chocolate and picturesque Italian landscapes, the new campaign for Galaxy chocolate naturally caught my eye. Oh, and the fact that every shot of Hepburn entails full CG face replacement might also have fuelled my curiosity!
Weta Featurette-a
The Oscars is on Sunday (anyone staying up for them?) and in preparation, the team over at Weta Digital has released a couple of pretty awesome behind the scenes/breakdown featurettes, discussing the creation of 'The Goblin Caverns' and 'Rivendell'.
We're going through ch-ch-ch-ch-changes...
If you're a regular through our doors then you might have noticed a few changes. Here at Escape HQ we've been busy building, painting, schlepping, and revamping our office area, studios and break out space for a new and rather fresh look. There's still quite a few bits and bobs to do but here's a look at what we were then and what we are now...
Make 2013 your own! New course dates launched
2013 is set to be a massive year for film, (take a look at our recent blog post to see what cinematic delights we're yet to sink out teeth into) so why not make it a massive year in film for you too?
An Insight to Industrial Light and Magic
Industrial Light and Magic was created back in 1975 by the legend that is George Lucas, and has kept going ever since, racking up work on over 300 movies to date.
Lee's App of the week: The Walking Dead: Assault
I officially love The Walking Dead but hate the long breaks in between series (can I get an Amen to it's return this month!) so thankfully Skybound - the same company that publishes TWD comics - has produced a top-notch game app to see us through those tough times and give us our zombie slaughtering fixes.
View Conference announces cash prizes for 2013 winners!
Our friends over at View Conference Italy, last week unveiled that they will be providing cash prizes for winners of their different awards. The prizes vary from top of the range tablets to a lump sum of 2000 Euros. The categories for application are as follows (complete with direct links)
Too much Apple for Ashton Kutcher?
Ashton Kutcher has unveiled that he got himself into a a real pickle, taking on a method actors approach when preparing for his latest role in a film set to hit screens in April 2013, which will follow the life and times of Steve Jobs.
A giant robot, loud music, and plenty of explosions, what's not to like?
The office here at Escape is usually bustling with an array of different musical sounds, and it's rare we fully agree on what radio station to keep on for more than an hour and a half.

New York State Attorney General Eric Schneiderman says the ringleader in this illegal scheme accessed her employer's prescription pad to write the fraudulent prescriptions.
Authorities say Shantel Williams wrote about 25 illegal prescriptions for the drug Oxycontin.
They say Williams paid Stacy Clark, Jessica Connolly, and sisters Anestacia and Bettina Wilson with cash to go to several Rochester area pharmacies to fill the prescriptions using their Medicaid benefit cards as a form of insurance payment. All five are charged with three felonies; grand larceny in the third, falsifying business records, and offering false instrument for filing.
If convicted on all counts, they face two and a third to seven years in state prison apiece.

What You Need
LP (Item 584277) Freestyle (UK), 2011 — Condition: New Copy
The second album funk & soul combo Randa & The Soul Kingdom – leading lights of the fertile Oz scene of the late 00/early 10s – fronted by powerful frontwoman Randa, backed by a tight Soul Kingdom that can and does handle blistering raw funk, moddish soul and classic handclap live R&B, to stripped down disco soul! The set's produced by Lance Ferguson of The Bamboos, of whom Randa & The Soul Kingdom are clearly akin, but they have a pretty incredible range that's as unique as it is impressive. Another gratifying win for the Freelstyle label! Includes "Power In Me", "Love Sick", "The Things", "Watch It", "Save Us", "Cold", "Be Yourself", "What You Need" and "Now I'm Free". © 1996-2013, Dusty Groove, Inc. |

Rain helps, but Southland still on water watch
BY SUSAN DEMAR LAFFERTY email@example.com June 18, 2012 5:10PM
Gusty winds blow water around from the power washer as workers clean the traffic signals at 153rd and West Avenue in Orland Park, Illinois, Monday, June 18, 2012. | Joseph P. Meier~Sun-Times Media

Updated: June 18, 2012 8:25PM
Saturday night's rain eased the strain on municipal water systems, but Southland officials still are closely monitoring water usage as high daily temperatures are expected to remain in the 90s this week.
The dozen Southland towns that get Lake Michigan water via Oak Lawn's delivery system all have summer restrictions that limit outdoor watering to between 7 and 11 a.m. and 7 and 11 p.m., on odd or even dates corresponding with residents' addresses.
So far, they have not had to restrict the flow of water beyond that, but Mokena has asked its residents to voluntarily reduce water usage by one-third.
Steve Barrett, Oak Lawn's public works director, said the system pumped 53 million gallons on Saturday and 41 million gallons Sunday.
"The rain helped somewhat. But we are watching it very closely," he said. "So far, so good. But we could use a few rainy days."
Without it, the benefit from Saturday's rain won't last long.
"It's hot and windy today. Things are drying out pretty quickly," Tinley Park public works director Dale Schepers said Monday.
Tinley Park's system, which gets water from Oak Lawn and then pumps it to Mokena, New Lenox and Orland Hills in addition to its own residents and businesses, used 18 million gallons Saturday and 12 million Sunday — the latter a 33 percent drop over the recent average.
In normal conditions, residents in these towns collectively average 9.4 million gallons a day.
"We're taking it one day at a time," Schepers said.
The National Weather Service is calling for high temperatures in the mid-90s through Wednesday, with a 40 percent of rain Wednesday night into Thursday.
"Rain in the middle of the week will certainly help," Schepers said. "We'll be able to stay the course with our current conservation efforts."
Meanwhile, he said, the Tinley Park Fire Department is making evening rounds to make sure residents are complying with the water usage restrictions and educating them on the need to be reasonable with their water use.

A New Outlook
The class was not what I expected... it was so much more. The teacher was Janet Hamilton, an exercise physiologist (among a long list of other abbreviations that go after her name and translate to "really smart"). I was enthralled with the science of it all... the physiology - muscle fibers, energy systems, chemical processes, etc. The art part is a little more of a struggle for me.
I don't want to go into too much detail, cause I could go on forever... but I ate it up. I mean, I really really enjoyed it. In fact, I found myself picking out books today to do more in-depth reading on the physiological side. The body is an amazing thing, and it's crazy how many factors go into something that is basically an instinctual activity.
So I said before I went that I wanted the information... maybe I'd coach a little, maybe not. I came back feeling that I had found my missing link. The light bulb is flashing... and not only do a see coaching as a part of my future, I see it as a major part. Wow! Time to buckle down and take the test, but it sure isn't easy!!!

State Gives $2 Million For Medical College Road Work
-->By: Jamiese Price
Updated: August 10, 2012
Roads leading to the new medical college in Dothan are about to be under construction.
The state gave $2 million Thursday for improvements.
The announcement was made at Thursday's Houston County Commission administrative meeting.
This will be a joint effort between Dothan and Houston County. The county will resurface and widen Drew Road
The city will work on Cowarts Road. That road leads to the college from Highway 84.
County Commission Chairman Mark Culver said, the project will help ease traffic in the area of the new medical college.
"The work needed to be done to support the college. Certainly there's going to be a lot of people going in and out over there and we want it to be safe and we want an impressive road to get into the college," said Culver.
Houston County Engineer Mark Pool said the county could start on the Drew Road project as early as Tuesday.

KurtFF8 wrote: Market socialists and social democrats often speak along those lines. Both talk about worker ownership, both retain capitalism. Both make the crude, unmarxist 'we'll use the profits for our own needs!' appeal the PSL is using. Europe went through this phase and there are clear distinctions in the workers' movement there. The USA never had the fortune of going through this so social democrats and communists are essentially unrecognizable to most people, it just seems like the PSL is capitalizing on this. Quote: The question isn't who formally "owns" the MoP, the question is whether there is real socialist development, whether the whole economy is leaning towards producing according to needs of a whole society in a most efficient manner and not according to what's most profitable. Whether "competition" and commodity production and small-scale capitalism are being dealt with. At least that's how i see this issue. Quote: Yes but that definition is then not correct, because Yugoslavia wasn't a socialist country. See : "Is Yugoslavia a socialist country?" by the CPC. Quote: See my example. Quote: It's actually most relevant. For the sake of argument let's imagine that one economy is mostly in the hands of such workers-small shareholders. Where is this "capitalist class" then?
Shareholding is not ownership it is investment. Even majority worker controlled companies are still operated by bourgeoisie.
لَا إِلٰهَ إِلَّا الله مُحَمَّدٌ رَسُولُ الله - يا عمال العالم اتحدوا Conscript wrote: Claiming that they "retain capitalism" is as vulgarly simplistic as what you're accusing the PSL of doing: being vague. You of course have yet to demonstrate what "retaining capitalism" even means, let alone how a short video from the PSL "retains capitalism" (which of course would be a nonsensical statement in itself) Loz wrote: How those things are divorced from who owns the MoP is beyond me. Yes it's about changing the structure of society and the goal/process of development. But is that not also clearly being called for in this video? Loz wrote: I prefer the Monthly Review's criticism in this book. I think that Yugoslavia had a fundamentally flawed model of socialism, but I wouldn't say it wasn't socialist. Loz wrote: An irrelevant example, no one is calling for workers to just increase stock holdings in companies. Dagoth Ur wrote: Agreed, this is also a straw man if it's being directed at any socialist group, as I'm not aware of anyone calling for this. Quote: Fine. Let's imagine that in some country factories are "owned by the workers" in a legalistic sense, that there is no other owner besides the employees. What does that mean if factories remain "autonomous" and "independent" to produce for the market, compete with other factories , perhaps even collectively buy more factories and other such things. Is that socialism? Someone in an old thread here called it "capitalism without capitalists". Quote: I've read the translation of that extract and i think it's a pretty damning account of Yugoslav "self-management". I don't see how that can even be called socialism. Quote: You're arguing against a straw man here though. Besides Market Socialists (which make up a very small part of the Left), who argues that they ought to produce primary for the market?
I don't know.
Your program doesn't make it clear though. However that, i guess, doesn't have much "weight" or meaning so i'm out of arguments in this tread. :D PSL might still be wrong but we'll have to wait and see... Loz wrote: If the workers own and control the means of production and the product thereof, yes. Cm'on baby, eat the rich!!! - Motörhead
Loz wrote: What isn't clear to you?
The PSL is a highly successful party. But sadly they are an unorganized group of Brezhnevites. Even if they got enough votes to win, their candidate is only 28 (you must be 35 to be president in the United States), and the bourgeois wouldn't let them win. Also, the PSL lacks any ideological education for their comrades and as a result many of their members lose interest, leave or become Social Democrats. I've met a few of their members at an Occupy Protest.... they knew nothing about theory and thought that you could develop socialism by razing wages, cutting work hours and having a single party state. In addition to that sad story, they didn't know what dialectical materialism was.
"Dialectical materialism works like cocaine, let's say. If you sniff it once or twice, it may not change your life. If you use it day after day, though, it will make you into an addict, a different man." -Nicolae Ceauşescu

The PSL has right on its website an introduction to dialectical materialism. I'd think that most members of a new Party are going to be learning. I'm not a member, but I think judging them as not truly Marxist because one of there campaign videos is a little vague is silly.
Quote: What exactly do you base this off of? Quote: The Party most likely won't be on the ballot in enough states to win in the first place. This also assumes that we're running in the same way that the Dems/GOP or the Green Party are: to win the election. Instead we are using it as a tool to bring up the issues in a broader venue than usual in a way that isn't usually done. Quote: This is simply false. There is a candidacy program to become a full member, a major part of this period is the requirement to complete classes on political issues. Quote: I doubt this is true.
Another interesting thing about this campaign is that neither of their candidates can run. One was born in Guatemala, and the other one is only 28.

Quote: You mean Colombia? And yes they can "run" they just aren't eligible to win. I'm having a hard time understanding why other Leftists are so concerned with this fact: if we had a real shot a winning the election then yes this would be quite absurd. But our campaign is, as I pointed out previously, not a typical bourgeois campaign but contains elements of being didactically and helping to promote the Party. I don't know why that's confusing to some folks
Does the PSL support Mexico reclaiming its stolen land?
I'm not sure that the PSL has a defined position on that, but we certainly support the revolutionary Chicano movement
Can you post some PSL article on this?
My gut feeling is that it's all just Mexican petty-bourgeois irredenta under the mask of pseudo-leftism but i don't want to jump to conclusions... Quote: Based on...? Or are you just trying to launch baseless attacks?
Based on some videos i saw, and i vaguely remember some texts, such as the PSL talking about "self-determination" of certain America's minorities..
Not to mention you calling the Chicano "movement" revolutionary. What is revolutionary about it?
