Jamesb R vs. I Fretty I By Alex Marsyla
Special note: Each Match Report presents the opinions and insights of one game observer. These observations are personal in nature and do not reflect the opinions of ArenaNet. While ArenaNet does review each article to assure that it offers content that is respectful of all players, we intend to allow our reporters the freedom to inject some personal opinion into descriptions of the current atmosphere of competitive play in Guild Wars, and to express views based on their experience and observation.
The September Hero Battle Monthly Championships provided displays of exceptional skill all-around, offering observers plenty of intense matches to watch. In the end, I Fretty I won this championship, but to do so he had to defeat Jamesb R, the player who knocked out three-time, reigning champion, X Ekelon X, in the semifinals.
Fretty ran the same build for the entire single-elimination tournament: two Ritualist/Mesmers to capture shrines and a Necromancer/Ritualist supporting an Assassin/Ranger (Fretty's character). This mix allowed Fretty to dominate most groups while capturing shrines. Jamesb, on the other hand, changed builds a number of times during the tournament. For the final round, Jamesb used the same build he used to defeat Ekelon: two Savannah Heat fire Elementalists and a Dervish/Paragon with Ebon Dust Aura supporting the Monk/Assassin played by Jamesb. In terms of build, Jamesb appeared to have an advantage with strong counters to both of Fretty's split characters and his Assassin.
The stage for this confrontation would be the map Bombardment.
The Builds
The Match
At the beginning of the match, Fretty sent one Ritualist to the siege cannon shrine while bringing his Assassin, Necromancer, and the other Ritualist to the center shrine. Jamesb, on the other hand, sent one Elementalist to the northern health shrine and the other to the siege cannon shrine, while the Monk and Dervish went to challenge Fretty at the center.
The first kills of the match were swift and brutal. Jamesb's Elementalist soundly defeated the Ritualist Fretty sent to capture the siege cannon shrine. At the same time, Fretty took advantage of his superior numbers at the center shrine and dropped Jamesb's Monk. After taking control of the center shrine, Fretty moved his characters to secure the outer shrines, leaving the center shrine undefended. With the shrine wide open, Jamesb took the opportunity to capture it. Despite this capture, though, at three minutes into the match Fretty led 5 to 3.
While Fretty was grabbing the outer shrines, Jamesb managed to trap Fretty's Necromancer in a one-on-one fight with an Elementalist at the southern health shrine. Fretty's Necromancer died quickly, and Jamesb capitalized on the death by capturing the other health shrine. This helped Jamesb recover from the scoring deficit and take the lead four minutes into the match.
About halfway through the match Fretty took control of the siege cannon shrine and advanced on the center shrine while dispatching a Ritualist to capture the health shrines. In response, Jamesb split both Elementalists to protect the health shrines. The Elementalists killed Fretty's lone Ritualist, but Fretty's numbers advantage coupled with control of the siege cannon shrine allowed him to take control of the center shrine. With less than three minutes to go, Fretty regained the lead.
After regrouping, Jamesb pushed into the center shrine with all of his Heroes. However, Fretty's Ritualists had enough time to set up and establish a proper defense. The engagement at the center shrine ended when Fretty killed Jamesb's Monk. With just over a minute left, Jamesb resigned the match with the score at 19 to 13 in favor of Fretty.
Coming into the match, Jamesb seemed to have a build advantage. His fire Elementalists had powerful area-of-effect skills, a sound counter to Fretty's Ritualist Heroes. Furthermore, Jamesb's Monk and Dervish were well equipped to deal with Fretty's Assassin and Necromancer. However, Fretty had an ace in the hole with Corrupt Enchantment on the Necromancer. By simultaneously stripping Enchantments while applying high Health degeneration, Corrupt Enchantment proved too strong a counter for Jamesb's Ebon Dust Aura Dervish.
Because Fretty's Ritualists were at a disadvantage against Jamesb's Elementalists, Fretty focused on the splits. He won the match with strong split play, taking advantage of open shrines and typically keeping one Ritualist split off. His dynamic split tactics slowed down the rate at which Jamesb's Elementalists could do damage and kill opposing characters. Thus, the points Fretty earned by controlling shrines were not offset by undue deaths.
Fretty also used the siege cannon shrine to great effect. Before pushing on the center shrine, Fretty consistently captured the siege cannon shrine. The pressure from the siege attack, with Fretty's Assassin and Necromancer, was usually enough to defeat Jamesb at the center shrine.
Both Fretty and Jamesb played very well throughout the tournament and into the final match. Jamesb brought an appropriate build to counter Fretty in the final match. Yet Fretty deployed his Ritualists in a manner that prevented exposing their weaknesses against Jamesb's fire Elementalists. This level of play shows why Fretty made it to the monthly championship finals and won.

Academic Flexibility: It has been a good learning experience.
Academic Flexibility: So far it has been easy for me to balance School, Work, Social/free-time, and a varsity level collegial sport.
Academic Flexibility: I chose this school because of its close proximity to my house, the decent tuition, and my prior attendance during my enrollment in the Running Start program. The instructors were knowledgable and friendly, the office for student accommodations were very helpful, and I enjoyed the campus and the student resources. As it's a small community college, there sometimes aren't enough teachers to ensure a wide variety of class times offered for every course, but I have had almost no trouble scheduling classes to work around my schedule and I have never had conflicting class times. All of my credits transferred from my time in Running Start and my high school classes that offered college credit. I'm currently working towards a Direct Transfer degree to a four-year school, and my advisor (a math instructor of my choice) was very helpful planning future classes that fulfill my transfer degree an advising me which instructors I would learn best from based on my learning style. Every faculty member I've interacted with have been very accommodating when I've come to them with a problem.
Academic Flexibility: I work very hard to get good grades in school. I am typically a A student however this program constantly challenges me. I typically get an 85% in all classes which in this program is a 3.0. There is a large mix of types of people in our group, male/female, older/younger, people with bachelors degrees and high school diplomas, and a variety of backgrounds. It is nice to have such a large variety because everyone brings something unique to the table and challenges the way we think about things.
Academic Flexibility: So far, I think that the classes have been great. I transferred to Shoreline CC from Spokane Falls Community College and all of my credits transferred. Also, I thought that I would have to take a lot of boring basic classes despite my emphasis in film, but SCC has so many amazing film, cinema, and media courses that are available.

CHESTERFIELD/COLONIAL HEIGHTS - The First Community Bank at 11400 Midlothian Turnpike was robbed on Nov. 13, and the Chesterfield County/Colonial Heights Crime Solvers program wants to help solve the case.
Around 10:30 a.m. a black male with a sweatshirt hood pulled over his head walked into the bank. He immediately walked to the counter and passed one of the tellers a note demanding money. He was handed an undisclosed amount of cash. He left the bank on foot and headed in an unknown direction.
The suspect was described as being about 5 feet 6 inches tall with a thin build and a light complexion. He wore a brown, hooded sweatshirt, blue denim jeans and a grey stocking cap.
Surveillance video from the bank was collected, and images from that video can be seen at crimesolvers.net under the "Crime of the Week" link.

Recipe by Kellie Ledford
"I usually serve the chicken with french fries, potato wedges or a baked potato."
Watch video tips and tricks
4 skinless, boneless chicken breasts
ground black pepper to taste
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon Italian-style seasoning
1 (18 ounce) bottle barbecue sauce
4 slices ham
4 slices Monterey Jack cheese
1/8 cup chopped green onion for topping
1/4 cup chopped tomatoes, for garnish
My husband and I enjoyed this a lot. I changed the prep. a bit. Instead of seasoning and baking I went through all steps and baked. I didn't use a whole bottle of BBQ sauce--I just spooned it on. I think next time I'll cut back on the Italian Seasoning. It didn't seem to go with the other ingredients.
Way too much barbeque sauce. It overwhelmed the taste of the chicken. The barbeque sauce needs to be cooked into the chicken not just poured on and heated.
83 Ratings
My husband really liked this, but I have to admit that I really don't like the combination of cheese and BBQ sauce together. We compromised at a 4-star rating. I know this will be used in our house again....lunches for the hubby. Thanks for posting.
Completely awesome. The easiest and yummiest way to fix chicken. Works best with sweeter BBQ sauces, like Sweet Baby Rays.
I loved this recipe. I cooked the chicken on the grill on foil and basted with the barbeque sauce (Using alot less) Then topped it with the ham and cheese at the end. No clean up! My husband wants be to put it in the weekly rotation!
This is a great chicken recipe. The ingredients kindof remind me of a chicken cordon blue, just with BBQ sauce. The results were fantastic! I used a sweet Memphis style BBQ sauce that really gave the chicken a nice flavor. Super easy to make and absolutely wonderful!
for something that sounds so simple, this was awesome! i don't care for ham much, so i made mine with bacon and hubby's with ham - i loved it!! i think my husband liked the bacon ones better too, so i will make them all with bacon next time. delicious recipe!
Awesome!! My mom said it tastes just like a resturant we go to. Next time we might add button mushrooms on top of the ham.

Bakery On Main Granola Bars Gluten Free Peanut Butter Chocolate -- 5 Bars
These granola bars are the best I have had - gluten free. Gluten free granola bars are very difficult to find and when I tried these I was pleasantly surprised. There is plenty of chocolate and peanut butter.
July 29, 2012
Not-so-good granola bars
This is probably the last Bakery on Main product I will try. None have been satisfactory. Lacking in chocolate and peanut butter plus fell apart in my hand. No substance. I was certain they would be delicious when I ordered them. How can anyone mess up chocolate and peanut butter? Big disappointment

Good Place, but Worse Italian Food – They have no idea about Italian Cuisine!
It is all right, but not at all!
It's too high prices for quality! Dishes are not enough new and clean!
i will never return – I have bought frozen dinners at the grocery store that were just as good..Salad is cheap iceberg ....boring
Traditional dishes and all -you-can-eat salad, soup and bread sticks are the draw at this upscale-casual Italian restaurant. – In Short
Established in 1982, this chain gained a following for its laid-back atmosphere and generous portions. Patrons settle into comfortable booths and tables in dining rooms with plants, artwork and décor reminiscient of the villas in the Tuscan countryside. Starters include scampi, sausage or pepperoni pizza, and several soup choices, as well as a signature seafood dip (crab, shrimp, cheese and marinara). Entrees include classics like lasagna, fettuccine Alfredo and chicken parmigiana. There are also "Garden Fare" options, which promise 30 percent fewer calories.
My favorite! – Love love love this place. always good food and great service. Wait times are horrible but may get better once the boro location opens. Recommend the gorgonzola and steak fettuccini alfredo and the house rosato wine!
Great service! – My husband and I have rediscovered the Olive Garden after not giving it much thought for many years. My husband is from an Italian family and honestly it was very reminisant of my mother-in laws fresh tasting dishes. The salad is so refreshing! We have been to many of the chains, Macaroni's, etc., and they can't compare. It's no wonder it is always crowded. The service is fast, friendly and efficient. Great prices for the quality of the food. Highly recommended, we haven't been disappointed yet.
MY FAVORITE PLACE FOR ITALIAN – I come to the Olive Garden in Antioch on an almost weekly basis, and I never leave disappointed. I am always greeted by a friendly staff, and don't even mind the wait (mostly during dinner & weekend times when EVERYONE goes out to eat). Last time my husband and I visited, we had excellent service even though our server was obviously running her little legs off trying to keep up with the rude, demanding people sitting next to us. I don't know how she kept up, but we got everything we needed in a timely manner, and she somehow managed to keep a smile on her face. The food was excellent as always, the best of any chain restaurant in my opinion. I highly recommend a visit to the Olive Garden.
wonderful Italian food – There is a reason that the Olive Garden is always busy--the food is excellent. I cannot remember ever being served a bad meal. The wait can be long during peak periods, especially on weekends, but the food is worth it. Overall the service is good, and the prices are very reasonable. I highly recommend the Olive Garden to anyone who wants delicious, reasonably priced Italian food.
Where Are You? – That is me asking for my waitress. The food was very good and was brought out hot. That's about all I have good to say. 1) We waited 25 minutes for our waitress after being seated. 2) 'Waitress' I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry....Manager same I'm sorry's, ME, the customer enough all ready I'm Hungry.
3) Food comes 'HOT' but the order is incorrect. 4) More rolls asked for but never came. 5) Dessert comes is incorrect .... But where's my cappuccino ???
Did I mention this was at 2:45 in the afternoon on a Saturday and they were NOT busy !!!
6) We pay and leave.... full but wanting BETTER SERVICE.......
Might as well been no service – We went there last night a party of 6 5 adults 1kid. Our waiter took 25mins to get our drinks,we didnt order wine,jusyt pop and tea..took forever to fill our drinks back up. i practically had to hand him the glass and say go get some more.,...no i was not rude cuz that makes things worse. The food was good tho that was about the only thing that was. At another table the waitress broke a bottle of wine right next to a 3 year old kid. He got covered in glass.. Well thats enuf..

The Metallic Onslaught conducted an interview with JUDAS PRIESTESS — the New York City-based all-girl JUDAS PRIEST tribute band — on July 14 at the Clarence Hotel in Seneca Falls, New York. You can now watch the chat below.
JUDAS PRIESTESS is band of hard-rocking chicks hell-bent on hitting stages across the USA and tearing up the classic headbangers of the undisputed masters of metal, JUDAS PRIEST. Formed in July 2009, this spike-and-chain-clad group of loud and grinding heavy metal-lovin' gals crashed head-on into the music scene a scant four months after forming and have already begun to receive critical acclaim from the press. In a recent interview with The Morning News, JUDAS PRIESTESS guitarist D. Mercedes stated about her band's live performances, "The fans who show up want to get the music the way they know it. They also want to come to see if we can do it, if we can really play. Especially since we're women. Men have more leeway." She added, "Many is the time that men will come up to us after the show and say, 'We came here to laugh.' They say, 'We thought you would stink and this would be a goof.' And then they say, 'Wow, were we surprised.' "We're not upset or whatever playing in tribute bands. Far from it. We had a discussion recently, and came to the conclusion: Who's the most important person in the entertainment industry? Lady Gaga — the ultimate tribute to Madonna! Hello?! Is that not the biggest tribute act on the planet? This lady has taken it to the stratosphere, but it's still a tribute act."

Ovie: The Flowchart
It should come as no surprise to Caps fans that this has been an 'off' season for Alex Ovechkin. Through 44 games, Ovie has only put the puck in the net 15 times and remains second on the team in goal scoring to a player who hasn't scored since November 28th.
Everyone has their theories as to why Ovechkin isn't scoring. He's injured. He's saving himself for the playoffs. He's scared of being suspended again. Teams know how to defend him. In times like these, I find it's sometimes beneficial to break down every possible scenario to see if anything jumps out. In this case, what happens when Ovie gets the puck these days?

By popular demand, I have developed a necklace version of the tree of life window pendant. This version is less fragile and hangs in front of a black acrylic egg. The egg extends a few millimeters beyond the edge of the amber bamboo egg. The fractal tree was inspired by a pattern discovered by doctors to promote skin growth . The tree-and-egg design is truly a picture of life. Hangs on a 24" sterling silver chain with a lobster clasp. Pendant is about 3.5" tall.

Game 25 Preview: Hurricanes at Capitals
Carolina Hurricanes at Washington Capitals
7 p.m., Verizon Center
TV: FS-Carolinas, CSN-Washington
Ask any Caorlina fan what the low point of the Hurricanes season was and they will likely point to their 3-0 loss to the Washington Captials two weeks ago. The Hurricanes roster experienced a barrage of injuries at the time and put together easily their worst performance of the season. They were outchanced 23-12 at even strength alone and were just dominated in all phases of the game. Things could have easily been much uglier on the scoreboard if it wasn't for the play of Cam Ward. To make things even worse, the Canes had also won only one out of five games at this point and zero games within their own division, which led to a lot of questions of this team's effort.
The team's performance on that night was not up to standard, but in the heat of the moment it is easy to forget that the Canes were not playing with their permanent roster. Their defense corps consisted of two AHL-ers and one junior hockey player along with AHL depth composing most of their bottom-six. Add in some disjointed lines and that's usually a recipe for disaster. The Hurricanes have slowly gotten more healthy since that night and have won four of their last five games, so I would expect different things in tonight's re-match with the Caps.
I know that everyone wanted that game against the Caps to be special with all of the media fanfare surrounding Alexander Semin's return to Washington, but that was just one bad game and the Hurricanes can put that behind behind them with a win tonight. The Hurricanes can do themselves a huge favor this week by gaining points in their three divisional games this week, while the Caps are hanging on for dear life to their playoff chances so this game is relatively important for both teams. The Caps are probably the more desperate team, but the Canes seriously need to start picking up some more divisional wins if they want to lock up the Southeast.
Having a reasonably healthy roster will help the Canes tonight but they are still going to need to play much better than they did on their last trip to Verizon Center if they want to escape with two points.

AUSTIN — The Texas Commission on Environmental Quality announced July 10 that it has $18 million in grants available to eligible businesses, governmental entities, school districts and individuals to replace older medium-duty or heavy-duty gasoline or diesel vehicles with natural gas vehicles, or repower the vehicles with natural gas engines.
Applicants must apply for the Texas Natural Gas Vehicle Grant Program grants through a participating dealer. A list of participating dealers is available on the Texas Emission Reductions Plan website.
The predetermined grant amounts are to reimburse between 60 and 90 percent of the incremental cost of the natural gas vehicles and engines, and are based on the fuel capacity, usage, and weight class of the grant-funded vehicles. Grant applications are accepted on a first-come-first-served basis.
Projects must result in at least a 25 percent reduction of emissions of nitrogen oxides, and grant recipients must commit to operate the grant-funded vehicles in the eligible counties for at least 75 percent of the annual mileage for four years, or 400,000 miles, whichever comes first.
Applications will be accepted until May 31, 2013, or until all funding is awarded, whichever comes first.
For up-to-date program information and eligibility requirements, contact a participating dealer.

"I LOVE this design. I searched for weeks for the perfect whale baby-shower invites, and these were just too cute for words. I managed to change a few things in order to add a few things that were not included on the template "Bring diapers/wipes for a special raffle. Registered at Babies R Us and Amazon." Once these hit the mail, I got a ton of compliments on them. People just loved the design. The only problem I had is that I ordered too few. When I went to order additional, I wish I had been given the larger bulk discount on my reorder rather than having to buy the highest amount to order just 10 additional cards."
"The card was so cute & the bold print I chose was easily readable. I used the largest font available in each text section and there was room for all of the information. Neat that you could customize the initial also."
"The cards turned out beautifully. I was concerned about the size before ordering, but they are the PERFECT size! Good quality invitations & good quality envelopes (not those flimsy see through ones)! Customer service was very helpful when I contacted them as well. Very VERY pleased. Will be using tinyprints again in the future!"
"The minute I saw these, I knew they were the perfect design and layout for my daughter's shower. I am so pleased with the quality and quick dleivery. I will definitely order from this company again."
"I'm very pleased with my invitations. I was somewhat concerned given I wasn't able to "touch"/see end result before mail out. A job well done Tiny Prints!"

You Are What You Eat? Not Quite.
Go ahead. Make me an offering...Our 3.5e group was rather large to start with, having had 10 players and then slowly dwindling down to a fair 4-6 players at any given time.
In the end we were left with a Bugbear, a Gnome, a Satyr bard, a Pixie, myself as a Hamadryad, and the newly super-powered (and oh-so-vengeful) pet of a recently deceased Dwarf.
We were a rather handsome lot. Half the time we would end up covered in filth, gore, viscera, and nameless bodily fluids. Our DM didn't even attempt to set us up to fail, we just happened to have piss poor rolls.
My character, the Hamadryad, didn't mind. She was plant, basically, but still managed to coerce the…

Lan Kwai Fong
A curious, L-shape cobblestone lane in Central is the pulsating center of nightlife and dining in Hong Kong. Lan Kwai Fong, or just "the Fong," is a spot that really shines after the sun sets. You can start with a predinner drink at any number of bars, then enjoy some of the territory's finest dining before stopping at a nightclub to dance the night away.
For such a small area, Lan Kwai Fong has an incredibly broad range of nightlife to offer, with dozens of bars, restaurants, and clubs within just a few blocks. Since most of the ground-floor establishments spill out onto the pavement, there's an audible buzz about the place, lending it a festive air that's unmatched elsewhere in Hong Kong. Whether it's corporate financiers celebrating their latest million-dollar deals at La Dolce Vita or more humble office workers having drinks with their buddies at Le Jardin, there's a place here to suit everyone.
The same "something for everyone" motto extends to the plethora of upmarket restaurants in Lan Kwai Fong. From Asia, there are Chinese, Thai, Japanese, and Vietnamese restaurants, while European food can be found at French and Italian establishments. If your wallet's feeling a little light from your latest shopping expedition, take heed of the excited waiters waving to potential customers along Wing Wah Lane (affectionately known as Rat Alley). Here you'll find rowdy Indian, Thai, and Malaysian restaurants that serve piping-hot dishes at reasonable prices.
Lan Kwai Fong used to be a hawkers' neighborhood before World War II. Its modern success is largely due to Canadian expatriate Allan Zeman, an eccentric figure who has been dubbed the "King of Lan Kwai Fong" by the local media. He opened his first North American-style restaurant here 20 years ago; today he not only owns dozens of other restaurants and bars, but also the buildings they're in. He claims to have about 100 restaurants, and although he doesn't actually own them all, he acts as the landlord for most of them. The Fong restaurants are now simply a hobby for Zeman, whose business empire includes everything from property development to fashion.
New Year's Eve (December 31) is undoubtedly the busiest time for Lan Kwai Fong. Thousands of people line the tiny area to celebrate and party. You'll notice a strong police presence moving the human traffic through the streets and keeping an eye out for any troublemakers. This is mainly to prevent another tragedy such as the one in the early 1990s when 21 people were crushed to death as a massive throng went out of control as they ushered in a new year. Now when large crowds are anticipated—usually New Year's Eve, Christmas Eve, and also Halloween—the police carefully monitor the number of people entering the area.
Call it progress or a type of survival-of-the-strongest evolution, but this trendy neighborhood has seen as many establishments open as close down. New spots are constantly in development, or old places under refurbishment. Regardless of the changes, Lan Kwai Fong is always alive with scores of people and places to be merry.

The Paonia Town Council handled a variety of issues on Aug. 13 in a marathon three and a half hour session.
Margot Richardson of Mountain Harvest Festival came before the council to request a special events liquor license.
The Paradise Theatre has changed its status over the past six months. The Paonia Chamber of Commerce now holds the lease. Because the Paradise Theatre can only apply for so many special event liquor licenses during the year, those who operate the Mountain Harvest Festival were asked to apply for the special event liquor license for Saturday night, Sept. 28, for concerts during the festival. This was unanimously approved.
Mayor Neal Schwieterman explained the council had previously discussed applying for a grant to receive funds to help pay for a town manager. The Department of Local Affairs (DOLA) grant application had to be in by Aug. 1. Town clerk Barbara Peterson completed it. The council approved the previously completed application.
Next the council heard from Bob Bushta concerning the BMW Rally park request for Wednesday, July 16, 2014 through the morning of Monday, July 21. Marty Durlin asked how long music will be allowed. She objected to loud music beyond 10 p.m. Bushta said the music should stop at 10 p.m. weeknights and at 11 p.m. on the weekends when live bands are playing.
This year, 500 "Beemers" attended the rally, leaving on Sunday morning. Bushta noted the rally went extremely well with problems experienced in 2012 being resolved. He expects a larger crowd next year. The council approved the park request.
The trustees approved special event liquor license requests by the Paonia Chamber of Commerce for four events at the Paradise Theatre. Those events are for Aug. 24 and 30 and Sept. 6 and 7 from 5 p.m. to 1 a.m. each night. Ross King asked for clarification of how many special event liquor licenses were permitted by applicants. Town clerk Barbara Peterson explained that state law allows each nonprofit organization up to 10 special event permits in a year. Alexis Halbert, chamber president, added that it is cost prohibitive to hold a general liquor license for the Paradise Theatre.
Richard Van Gytenbeck, Colorado River Basin outreach coordinator, gave a presentation on behalf of "Our Colorado River." The organization is part of a project of Trout Unlimited, a nonprofit fisheries conservation organization.
One of Trout Unlimited's western Colorado projects is to "improve the quality of the Colorado River and its many tributaries." They have ongoing partnerships with agriculture. Its primary intent is "to facilitate broad support for smart water management ... through a set of core values designed to promote healthy communities through healthy rivers."
Those core values include these components: cooperation not conflict, protect the quality of life, modernize irrigation, innovative management and keep the rivers at home.
The health of the Colorado River and its tributaries contributes significantly to the economy. The Colorado River basin irrigates 700,000 acres on 9,000 farms and ranches contributing to $1 billion in the crops and animals produced for market. Over $9 billion is added to the Western Slope economy through recreation and tourism.
Gytenbeck requested a letter of support for their work from the Town of Paonia. Barbara Peterson will write a letter and the council will vote whether to approve it or not at the next council meeting. For more information, visit www.ourcoriver.com.
The parks committee with trustees Amber Kleinman and Eric Goold worked out a Delta County School District facilities use agreement. Town clerk Peterson and police chief Scott Leon also worked on the project. Goold said that in years past the Delta County School District and the Town of Paonia had "a handshake agreement" regarding how much the district pays the town for use of Paonia Town Park and Apple Valley Park for their sports programs. "We have it in writing now. It's $1,800 a year," Goold said. "The number is a little disappointing. We were hoping it would be for more, but it is the number we think the school district can live with." The town has created an invoice for $9,000 to cover back years of 2006 and 2009 through 2012, but Goold is not confident that the district has the money to pay it. A second invoice for $1,800 will be generated for this year.
Alexis Halbert gave an update on Heart and Soul. There will be a community summit at the end of October. On Oct. 25, a film will be screened at the Paradise Theatre about the values used in decision making models. On Oct. 26, the community will look at the major issues that have been identified to the Heart and Soul Project. Over 1,000 people provided comments. Heart and Soul then distilled their comments into nine core values. Those values are small town feel; sense of community; the economy; traditions and heritage; the rural environment; food and water; freedom, personal responsibility and independence; diversity; arts and culture. The goal is for the local municipalities to consider those values in future decision making. The Heart and Soul Project ends in December.
Halbert said she asked for and received funding from the Orton Foundation so a representative from each of the towns in the North Fork Valley could attend the Downtown Colorado Inc. Conference Sept. 11-13. The Department of Local Affairs is a partner in the conference which will be in Grand Junction.
Goold asked how the core values will be translated into the town's master plan. Halbert said that will be determined by the town councils. Heart and Soul can provide examples of what other towns have done.
The council agreed to extend the employee health insurance program with Rocky Mountain HMO until Dec. 2014.
The next town council meeting will be Tuesday, Aug. 27 at 7 p.m.

Justin Bieber's father helped facilitate the insanely stupid moves of his son that landed him in jail ... TMZ has learned.
Sources familiar with the situation tell us ... 38-year-old Jeremy Bieber was not only present when Justin was arrested early Thursday morning ... he was one of the people who helped block off the residential street so his son could drag race.
It's even worse ... Jeremy was in SET nightclub just before the arrest with Justin and was around him all day, when the self-confessed little pothead was smoking weed.
As we reported ... Justin admitted that he was under the influence of Rx drugs, alcohol and weed at the time of his arrest ... and Justin's dad was right there in the mix.
Of course he's helping his son fulfill his DNA destiny. This is who these people are. Nobody should hate Justin for merely becoming what he was designed to be by his parentage genetics.
This had to happen. Better it happened now. Maybe the realization that is travel will now be very restricted around the world will be enough of a jolt to get him back on right track. If not he will just become another Lindsey Lohan.
Ah the writing is on the wall. Too bad parents forget to be parents when their kids are richer than they are. It's just another Lindsay/Dina story all over again.
this lil dick face cant wear a shirt in shopping mall's but on the beach he has 4 shirts and a jacket
This is what happens when men with bellybutton tattoo have children.
The douche apple doesn't fall from the douche tree.
I don't care about his stage father. ... What I do care is JB just admitted that SET nightclub (sold) provided alcohol to him, an underage douche .

Crystal Ball Run:
Louisiana Tech Bulldogs
When is a bowl game worse than no bowl at all? Ask Louisiana Tech. The announcement of the Bulldogs' fate, courtesy of La. Tech associate media relations director: Louisiana Tech has not been selected for a postseason bowl game. Nation's No. 1 offense ends year at 9-3. #WeAreLATech — Patrick Walsh (@LATechPWalsh) December 2, 2012 That's a nice little plug for the Bulldogs' offensive prowess, as well as an interesting spin on the story surrounding the team's postseason, or lack thereof. In reality, the Independence Bowl in nearby Shreveport actually did select Tech. Tech athletic director Bruce Van De Velde told Bruce Feldman of CBSSports.com that Independence administrators set a deadline of Saturday for a commitment. The Bulldogs thought they had better options, so the Independence moved on, according to Van De Velde. But the juicier scuttlebutt in circulation: Tech refused to be matched up with in-state rival Louisiana-Monroe, which will instead square off again...

I agree with fire. C5 with caff free rok (my stack for a long time) is one of the best combinations i've ever run for weight training as well as for cardio activities. Awesome for sports as well like swimming, hockey, baseball, etc.
You'll really enjoy it
^^ Truth. I've tried at least 5 different sources of cordyceps, both bulk and otherwise, and nothing comes close to C5 or VO2.
Awesome. Thanks for the feedback. I'm defiantly going to give this a shot.
it's a great stack. one of my favorites, actually.
iForce INTIMIDATE Log/Review
Cordygen 5 is insane! I have been stackng it with intrabolic this past month and my endurance is insane. I have been keeping maintence level of caloric intake and haven't lost any muscle and improving my endurance greatly.
Cheap and effective, you can't beat that.
Is creatine needed if you're taking cordyceps? Especially since there is creatine in ragnarok.
the creatine in ragnarok is plenty enough for the stack you'll be running. Cordygen is a stand alone product and can be used unassisted, but works very well with other products of the MST line

Everyone is entitled to their "opinion" Some people are not going to like under carriage lights and some are. I say do it. If I had the budget, I would have enough lights on my truck to light up an air strip.
08-29-2012, 11:21 PM #12The stereotypical vehicle on which such lighting is often found is an Acura RSX, Honda Civic SI, or similar ... frequently with a ghetto wing, a big coffee can muffler that sounds like a fart, and some Veilside or similar decals so that people conjure up ideas of Fast & Furious: Tokyo Drift when they see the vehicle.
I can't say I'd want to make my truck look like a riced out car, but to each his/her own!
P.S. I used 'green' to get some alliteration going with the term 'ghetto'. The colour wasn't what made the lighting ghetto to me; anything ricer-esque is ghetto to me, no matter the colour -- and I mock ricers ruthlessly. I'm not trying to be insulting, I just look upon trucks in a very different light from riced-out imports.Last edited by SurrealOne; 08-30-2012 at 06:07 AM.
08-30-2012, 03:50 AM #13If the floor boards are staying a few LED's that only came on as you described isn't a bad idea. The power folding boards come with them, or it's an option. Nothing as bright as what that Land Rover has but just enough to light up the boards.

I would lose them....
09-02-2012, 04:08 PM #15I'm a big fan of LED lighting accessories and like the look of these in a big rig and I think you're truck is big enough to pull it off.
09-26-2012, 01:12 PM #16Well, I decided to remove the lights this past weekend. I'm going to install the white underbody lights and tie them in to turn on when I get in and out of my truck (for extra light around the perimeter).

I should start by pointing out that my wife and I love to travel and see new places. Its a big world out there and there are lots of foreign countries with many historic places and things to see. But the USA has plenty to offer as well, and if I'm going to visit other countries I want to also visit my own and see all 50 states. Now, I have been to 41 and Alaska was one of the last 10 I had left to see. Down to 9 left.
Alaska had been on my list of places to see for quite a while. And as I knocked off the places ahead of Alaska, one by one, it slowly kept moving up to the top of the list. Then one day my wife announced that there was going to be a family wedding in southern Oregon in May and she wanted us to go. That started the wheels turning and I figured if I was going to be right down the street, so to speak, that it was the perfect time to ease on up the road a bit to Alaska, being so close. My bad......Portland is only about half-way and its just as far from Atlanta to Portland (2,718 mi.) as it is from Portland to Anchorage (2,644 mi.). But it was too late. I had my excuse and I began my search for the perfect cruise/tour to Alaska.
The first thing I had to do was find a way to work around the wedding date and it was clear early on that the trip had to come after the May 10th wedding date. It was almost too early for a trip to Alaska and the earliest date I could find was May 12th, but that left no time to visit family and my wife has never been to Portland or Seattle, Washington so I wanted to work in some time to show her Portland and Seattle. There was a trip leaving on May 15th and that gave me just enough time to squeeze in everything.
So, our trip begins with a wedding in Grants Pass, Oregon, followed by a 101-mile drive up the Oregon coast to Portland and a day in Seattle before we fly to Anchorage. The 12-day cruise/tour makes it an 18-day trip ending on Memorial Day, 2008.

See our UpLift 900 Height-Adjustable Stand-Up Desk in action below.
Check out our video of the UpLift 900 Height-Adjustable Stand-Up Desk below.
Assembling an UpLift 900 Height-Adjustable Stand-Up Desk is easy! See how to below.
The Advanced Wire Management Kit is a complete cable organization system for your height-adjustable desk. We developed this kit after years of desk installations. It's a proven way to easily manage all computer and electric desk cords. The kit includes the following:
Click the video below to get some helpful tips on making the most of your UpLift Advanced Wire Management Kit:
The included cable organization tray forms the crux of your wire management solution with a sleek, black design that seamlessly blends with your desk's design and mounts securely to the desktop with two self-tapping wood screws or a strip of included double-sided tape. At 3.6'' wide, this tray is wide enough to accommodate cords, power supplies and the included power strip, minimizing below-desk clutter.
10 self-adhesive wire mounts and 100 single-use cable ties allow for cables to be bundled and pulled taut against the bottom of the desk, eliminating hanging wires.As your workstation develops over the years, it's likely that you'll need to re-bundle wires for routing or storage inside the wire management tray. A set of 10 reusable cable ties is also included, allowing for modification of cable bundling as needed without needing to replace individual cable ties.
Additionally, the Advanced Wire Management Kit provides a desk-to-wall cable organizer to organize wires running from an outlet or equipment to your desk in a single bundle. The desk-to-wall cable organizer's heavy-duty "spiral" design protects the cables inside from wear and tear, while also allowing cables to be integrated into the organizer or removed from it easily. An included quick wire add/remove tool rapidly and efficiently routes cables into the organizer.
Finally, if you need more power outlets close at hand, or just need an all-in-one power solution, a clamp-on surge protector with USB charger can be added to the Advanced Wire Management Kit or ordered as a standalone product. This unique surge protector features six power outlets with space for two large AC adapters as well as a pair of ports for charging USB devices. Capable of clamping onto any surface up to 1 3/8'' thick, this surge protector can placed nearly anywhere on your desk for convenient outlet access. Please note that this surge protector will not fit inside of the wire management tray and must be mounted on the desk edge.
The UpLift 900 Standing Desk can be ordered with optional casters. The casters come in a set of four - two for each leg. They can be locked to keep the desk stationary, but easily unlocked when you need to roll the desk.
Please note: the casters will add approximately 2.25 inches of height to your desk.
Add an UpLift Sit-Stand desk mat to your desk base order, and receive an additional discount off the regular mat price. Our UpLift Sit-Stand anti-fatigue desk mats are extremely durable and comfortable. The padding is an inch thick and the surface is puncture-proof to withstand high heels or even the wheels of your chair. Choose from a 2' x 3' size or a 3' x 5' size.
Note: If you wish to use your UpLift Sit-Stand desk mat as a chair mat as well, you will need the 3' x 5' size.
Add an optional footrest to your standing desk to improve your sit-to-stand experience and your overall health. See the links and descriptions below to determine which footrest would best suit your needs.
When using a sit-stand desk, we recommend mounting your computer beneath your desktop to prevent cables from being stretched and pulled out of their ports when moving the desk from sitting to standing positions. We don't recommend leaving your CPU on the floor, as most cords aren't long enough to stretch from a computer placed on the floor to the standing height of your desk. While one option is to place your CPU on top of your desk, a CPU holder allows you to securely attach your computer tower to the bottom of your desktop to free up desk space. For an adjustable CPU holder at a discounted price when bundled with this desk, our own UpLift CPU Holder features a 360° swivel mount and a gliding track mechanism for easy access to your computer.
Click the video below to see the many features and benefits of the UpLift CPU Holder:
A monitor arm is almost always better than the stands that most monitors come with. Monitor arms allow you to easily move the monitor in and out, side-to-side, and up and down, while allowing you to make use of the desktop surface under the monitor. It is best not to use valuable and convenient desktop space with your monitor stand - most people push their monitor too far back to save desktop space and end up with a hunched back as they strain forward to see the screen. Most people that we sell a monitor arm to come back to us and say that they should have gone with a monitor arm years ago.
The Budget Single Monitor Arm and Budget Dual Monitor Arm allow you to elevate your VESA-compatible displays off of your desk and easily move the monitor in the horizontal plane (in and out, side-to-side) by using your fingertips to move the monitor. To move the monitor vertically you need to adjust the vertical position of the arm where it mounts to the vertical pole at the back of your desk. For users who want easier vertical adjustment, there's the Innovative EVO II and Innovative 7500 Wing Dual LCD monitor arms. These stylish, heavy-duty monitor arms provide complete fingertip adjustment for height, depth and lateral movement. They support monitors weighing up to 20 lbs. with an adjustable vertical counterbalance system that allows for fingertip vertical monitor adjustment, and we offer them at a discount when bundled with your UpLift standing desk. For dual monitor users with a wide desktop or a chair next to a treadmill or bike, we recommend the Innovative 7500 because it can easily swing the dual monitors in tandem from one side of the desk to the other.
See how easy it is to adjust the position of your monitor with the Innovative EVO II LCD Monitor Arm by clicking the video below:
An ergonomic keyboard tray is an excellent accessory for your UpLift desk base, and our UpLift Large Keybord Tray, with its easy lift-and-release knob-free locking height adjustment that adjusts a full 8'', wheel tilt adjustment, and easy-to-read height and tilt indicators, gets your keyboard and mouse in the proper position whether seated or standing. The 27'' wide, low-profile phenolic keyboard tray also features a removable foam palm rest and a separate foam mousing platform with sliding mouse catcher and cord manager that can be switched from the right to left side for ambidextrous mousing. The low-profile, heavy-duty platform gets your keyboard and mouse even closer to your lap, allows for compact storage, and is wide enough to comfortably fit most keyboard and mouse combinations. This high-quality keyboard tray system is available at a discounted price when bundled together with your UpLift desk base.
All necessary mounting hardware is included, including an 11'' track that allows your keyboard tray system to be mounted without interference from the desk's support beam underneath, and a 21'' track that you can use if the support beam is removed from the desk. While the 11'' track length will not allow you to fully store your tray along the track under your desk, we find that most users never fully retract their tray even if they have that capability. For users with a 60'' or wider desktop, you can take advantage of the 360° of rear swivel at the mechanism to rotate your platform around underneath the desktop for storage, or achieve a fully-retractable keyboard tray along the track by removing the crosspieces to form an UpLift 920 Desk Base with no crossbar interference and mounting the full 21'' track under the desk.
For a little bit of extra storage, add an UpLift Half Circle Desk Drawer at a discounted price when bundled together with your desk. This half-circle-shaped, swiveling drawer easily attaches to the underside of your desktop via a central mount and pivots in either direction, rotating out to give you quick and easy access to smaller accessories that you don't want cluttering up your desktop. Featuring pen and pencil trays, a notepad slot, a tape dispenser, and storage compartments, the 13.6'' W x 7.4'' D x 1.3'' thick UpLift accessories drawer will help keep your height adjustable desk cleaner and more organized.
The Raynor Evo Chair is an extra-comfortable executive task chair. Covered in soft foam and upholstered in stain-resistant fabric, this chair is available in three fashionable colors at a significant discount when purchased with your UpLift 900. You won't be sitting as often anymore, but it's still nice to have an attractive and functional chair. We don't recommend this chair for users who sit more than 3-4 hours per day, as they should buy a more ergonomic chair like the Ergohuman V2 chair.
The Raynor Nuvo Mesh Chair with Headrest has an array of ergonomic adjustments that include adjustable lumbar support, a seat slider and adjustable arm rests. The Raynor Nuvo also features extremely comfortable and breathable Italian Soft Touch Mesh upholstery and a removable headrest. Already a great value, bundle this chair with your desk and get a great discount!
The Ergohuman V2 Chair is one of our most popular ergonomic chairs, featuring a five-position back angle tilt lock, four-way adjustable arms, a seat pan slider, and well-pronounced lumbar support. These chairs are available in both mesh and leather upholstery, and can be bundled with the UpLift 900 for great savings!
We also have a variety of ergonomic stools that make a great accessory for your UpLift Standing Desk.
Want to see all the features and adjustments available on these chairs? Watch the videos below for a demonstration:
The UpLift 900 Height-Adjustable Stand-Up Desk Base (Stone White) lets you pair almost any existing desktop with its electric height-adjustable frame so you can immediately begin adjusting your desk from sitting to standing with the touch of a button. Periodically changing your working position during the day can help increase energy and focus, reduce back, neck and shoulder pain, and allow you to burn more calories throughout the day. Check out the full UpLift 900 Sit-Stand Desk for this sturdy, affordable base paired with a durable laminate top.

In 2010, I gave myself an explicit set of goals to guide my fly fishing during the year. I didn't perform so well against the standard I set to say the least… Perhaps in reaction to that failure, I didn't post a new set of fishing goals for 2011. I just sort of carried on with the 2011 goals floating around in the back of my mind but without talking or posting about them very much. The one exception was the goal to fish 52 days a year or an average of one day per week. This one wasn't about the actual days, rather as a catalyst to roll out of bed on those days that might appear marginal when looking at Internet forecasts, etc. Sometimes, those can be the best fishing days of all as the river will be uncrowded due to everyone else sleeping in…
Anyway, here are my (Un)goals of 2011 and how I fared:
- Take the kids fly fishing more and coach their casting less – Partial success, Aika couldn't fish this summer due to her knee injury but Angus and I got out including a trip to Idaho. I still coached his casting too much…
- Get some return out of my 2009 investment in a cataraft – Total failure, even wore than 2010. I think I only took the cat out twice which is a ridiculous waste. Need to get off my butt and either sell it or use it.
- Fish at least 52 days in 2010 – Partial success, ended up with 43 days which is pretty good considering the record snowpack and high water until late summer.
- Fish in Oregon, Idaho, Montana & BC – Fail, only made it to Idaho. I was barely over the border from Montana but the high flow levels prevented the second leg of the trip so we stayed on the NF CDA.
- Camping trip to headwaters of the Elwah – Fail, just couldn't get it done. This was partially due to spending more time fishing for summer-run steelhead on the Forks rivers which I like better any way…
- Keep an accurate fishing log (should be helpful for #3) – Success, kept good data about each day's fishing, weather, flows, catches, etc.
- Take someone who has never fly fished before to a river and help them catch a trout – Partial success, while I didn't take anyone fishing, I did give a casting lesson as well as help a couple people get started in fly fishing through info sharing over lunch meetings, etc.
- Spend less money and time on gear and more on actually fishing than in 2010 – Partial success, I definitely spent more money on actually fishing but I'm not sure I spent less on gear. However, most gear purchases where via the proceeds from other gear sales so I'll give myself a break on this one.
- Attend a spey casting lesson and break my bad self-taught habits – Partial success, while it wasn't a formal casting lesson, I did go out with well-regarded Olympic Peninsula guide Jim Kerr for an instructional day of fishing. There was some coaching on the cast but it was mostly about learning how to fish.
- Take my 'serious' camera fishing and actually use it for a change – Success, but the serious camera became a video camera. I made a couple short videos, learning a lot along the way. Much more in this direction for 2012…
Depending on how much 'credit' I give myself for the partials, I'm coming in somewhere between 70% and 45%. Not bad compared to last year's paltry 40% giving myself full credits for partials. The three items marked "Fail" all seem to relate to traveling to fish. 2012 will be tough in that respect too as is my final season of playing the combined coach/Dad role and there will be a fair amount of wrestling travel this summer.
Even so, I'm really looking forward to spending an increased amount of time rediscovering the Olympic Peninsula this year – not just for steelhead, I'm also very excited about the potential for sea-run cutthroat on the little troutspey, resident trout fishing and of course, salmon.
