The Alamo Area Council of Governments Hazard Mitigation Plan is designed to protect people and property from the effects of natural and man-made hazards. By taking action today, we can reduce the likelihood of injuries, loss of life and damage to our communities. In addition to developing a framework for action, the Regional Mitigation Plan enables participating counties and municipalities to apply for pre and post-disaster mitigation funding that would not otherwise be available. This funding can help local jurisdictions implement desired goals and objectives outlined in the plan.
Participants in the AACOG regional planning process formulated the following guiding principles, which categorize the types of mitigation strategies ultimately adopted at the local level.
For each principle, regional-level goals were established along with more refined objectives. Each county and municipality was responsible for developing their own Mitigation Action Plan, which identified jurisdictionally-specific actions, written in the form of policies and projects. Each Mitigation Action Plan includes assigned responsibilities, potential funding sources and a timeline for implementation. Action plans link the broad ideas established in the AACOG Regional Mitigation Plan with strategic, action-oriented tasks.

Boys and their Toys! or I should say, Boys with MY Toys!
This is, I believe a 1940's photo, of my grandfather (on right), my father (next to my grandfather), my great-uncle (next to my father, the owner of the garage in the snow I posted) & still trying to find out the relation of the man on the left.
Leave it to the "Men" playing with my toys and not inviting me to join in!
Wish I still had the toys!
Thanks for looking,

Growing donation pile. |
Sending chocolate AND wine.
Good luck with the move!! I can't even imagine that right now. Hugs!
As much as I loathe the packing/unpacking, I DO love how clean our closets & drawers are post move. For a little while. I've been trying to do more donations so that if and when we ever need to pick up & move again, maybe, just maybe it won't be so much stuff! Good luck! Will wait on the chocolate. You'd never find it now.

Apply for the Powerful Locals Program
OEA's Union School Powerful Locals program
These are challenging times for education professionals and our local associations. There are fewer resources, more expectations and more problematic regulations facing our public schools and community colleges. The result: overworked teachers, faculty and support professionals facing overcrowded classrooms, unmanageable caseloads and the stress associated with trying to meet student needs. Local Associations in both K-12 and Community Colleges are faced with continual bargaining with underfunded school districts and colleges. Local union leaders find fewer members actively involved in local union activities.
The Powerful Locals program, an initiative of OEA's Strategic Action Program, is now beginning and new program year. In 2012-13, the Powerful Locals program worked with 16 locals to create new statements of purpose for locals, develop strategic goals and to assess resources and educational needs to execute those goals. For 2013-14, the OEA Union School is now soliciting applications from locals interested in being one of the 15-18 in the next Powerful Locals program.
OEA's Powerful Locals program will provide training, support and collaboration to help locals develop effective strategies to overcome these challenges. The program is designed to assist each local leadership team in finding the best mix of education, training, and strategy that will help transform the locals into what they believe a more strategic, powerful, member-driven union should be.
Applications for the 2013-2014 program are now being accepted. Download the application here.

Jean Vanier is the founder of the L'Arche homes, where persons with developmental disabilities live in community with those of us who are disabled in other ways. Vanier's book "Community and Growth" is one of the wisest and most profound meditations upon authentic life in community that has ever been written. "Community and Growth" offers countless lesson to rural church leaders, more of which will be shared in this space.
At one point in the book Vanier shares the following quotation from a letter written by Little Sister Madeleine, founder of the Little Sisters of Jesus:
The November edition of The Chronicle of Higher Education includes a fascinating profile by Scott Carlson of new President G.T. "Buck" Smith's efforts to lead a turnaround of tiny, debt-ridden Davis & Elkins College in West Virginia.
Tuesday night is "Family Night" at the local Chick-Fil-A near my daughter's preschool in Burlington. On a recent Tuesday night when my wife has to work late, I pick up Ada from school, and, with no plan for dinner (nor the skill to cook anything worth eating beyond "Spaghettios"), we make a beeline for chicken strips and waffle fries. Ada squeals in delighted expectation.
Hanging out in the pastor's office after preaching at our partner Thriving Rural Congregation at Hayesville First UMC, I noticed a football sitting on the shelf among all of the other church paraphernalia. "What's the story of the football?," I asked.
The National Public Radio program "All Things Considered" aired a story today about pastor Dick Witherow, who has opened a church and created a community in rural Palm Beach County, Florida, for a group of people whom he calls "modern day lepers": convicted sex offenders.
The church is located out in the wilderness in more ways than one. And yet the name of the isolated community where it is found is "Miracle Park."
(One of our TRC Partner Churches, Tyro UMC in Lexington, will be holding a special event called "Journey to Bethlehem" over the next two nights. The description found below recently appeared in "The Dispatch" of Lexington.)
Let's take a trip. No need to pack a bag and pay those inflated charges at the airport to check your luggage. No need to find a sitter for your pet. No need to stop your mail or paper delivery for a few days.
"They asked him, 'Teacher, when will this be, and what will be the sign that this is about to take place?' And he said, "Beware that you are not led astray; for many will come in my name and say, 'I am he!' and 'The time is near.' Do not go after them. . . . 'Look at the fig tree and all the trees; as soon as they sprout leaves you can see for yourselves and know that summer is already near. So also, when you see these things taking place, you know that the kingdom of God is near.'" -Luke 21: 7-8, 20-36
We human beings are not too good at reading the signs.

Voting Home / Pets / Dog Walker / Little Monsters Pet Care
Nominated for: BEST Dog Walker
My philosophy is simple; I treat your baby the way that you
do. A simple but true founding principle. You won't see me
being walked by a pack of dogs as your dachshund is
being dragged down the street by a husky. I offer
individualized attention-one on one. Single walks, single
focus, single hugs and kisses. I feel this is the best way to
build a lasting, trusting relationship with your pet. This
approach also helps me identify, learn, and adapt to each
animal's personality and preferences; further fostering
continuity, good behavior, and less anxiety while you are
away. A unique approach. An elite approach.

Moving story about William "C4" Moore's tribute to a friend. Nice gesture by Von Hutchins and a move that, in my mind, speaks highly of Moore.
The Falcoholic's readers try to project the battle for the starting strong safety spot, months ahead of when it will actually be decided.
Hat tip to J. Mike at the official site, of course. If anyone but me knew what it was about, I'd seriously consider picking up a William Moore jersey and taping a "C" over the 2. That's a nickname that keeps on giving. Either way, it's fun to take a look at what everyone ended up with, and here's hoping we see #15 on the final roster.
"Man, excited is not the word," Moore said shortly after being taken No. 55 overall. "It's a blessing. When the whole process was going on, everybody asked me where I've love to go. I said Atlanta. It's like when I went to Missouri, I had the feeling, the players, the direction they're headed. I know I can go in and make an instant impact."
William Moore talks to the AJC about his new teamThe Falcoholic grades the 2009 NFL Draft for the Atlanta Falcons. With value at every pick, this is a report card the team can be proud of.
The Falcoholic provides a report on safety William Moore, the Falcons' second round pick, and sees someone who will be a starter sooner than later.
Draft day is nearly here. With 30 pre-draft visits allowed by the league, who have the Patriots taken a look at from this year's class of rookies? Here is the list!
Who do you think the Dallas Cowboys should select with their first pick in the 2009 draft?

rear view camera, is this one good ?
on the Tahoe, the window tint is extremly dark, i'm not going to remove the tint as it's nice in the summer but to back up at night it's a pain, yo ucan't see sh@t. I added 2 fog light in the back but still not good so I was looking at back up cameras. most of the one I found cost $600 and way up, which is too much for me. I found that one which as a 7"screen ( many system have a 3.5" screen (how can you see ?......) I could place a 7"screen in front of the console, there is plenty of empty space there.

OP, I can relate to your situation, somewhat (I drink underage and have done so for several years). If marijuana helps you to become a better version of yourself, go ahead and use it. Just don't ever let it get in the way of what's most important to you.
Also, what's illegal isn't always immoral. If there isn't a cop near me, the drinking age doesn't exist, as far as I'm concerned.

Any kinda help with this image would be appreciated. Looking at it, i feel like theres something wrong but i cant really pin it down.
Your depth does not really communicate. How far back is that girl from the man? It looks different looking at the background than from looking at your characters. Also, I have no idea what is happening with that head in the middle. I don't know if it's supposed to be decapitated or what. If so, it should probably lie at an angle and have some blood, no? Also, it looks far too large for how far back it appears.
sketchybook|website ::.
Hmmm okay thanks maybe ill try extending the grass a bit more in certain areas to lead the eye to the girl which could help with the distance things. Errrmm the head thing hes meant to be a little person like the size of a really small child lol Ill try bringing him out from the snow a bit more, cause i can see the confusion thanks a lot
Hello man, you have a curious work here...
I have three questions:
1-If the girl is chained by the legs, why the guy is using a type of sword to hit her? Does he really want to kill her?
2-It seems to me that she has some blood at the legs, in the point it reaches the ground. Thus, I think she is chained and her legs are cut... Am I right?
3-At the background is a head looking to them.... due to the red track, I think she is dead. If I am right, her eyes should be completely white.
I hope it help you...
best regards
Shes training, chained and blindfolded so she cant move or see. The guy has a bell on his sword for that reason..not sure how to draw more attention to that though.
No sure what you are referring to when you say blood on her leg, she has red boots on if thats what you were looking at lol Theres not meant to be any blood in this image at all. The trail is from the elongated flag, i guess ill cut that down cause its rather misleading.
Okay considering theres common misconception for that head next to the flag ive raised him out the snow so its more evident that hes an actual person...plus hes alive and kickings lol Ive also painted in streaks of grass to help with the depth perception. Made a slight adjustment to the blindfold to the girl too, i dont think it was as clear it was there in the first place. but still want the hair to kinda overlap it

Dude, right now the head/guy really isn't adding anything to the picture besides confusion. Why does he have such a massive head and a tiny little body and no legs? IMO you would be much better off just removing him from the pic all together.
To be honest the being chained down/training part really doesn't read well either. Its hard to tell what the heck is going on all together. I think it would read better if there were no chains or big head guy and the girl and guy were just squaring off for some epic final battle or something. That said, if that were the case then it would completely change your idea.
I'm not sure how you can make it look like a training scene, but it does not look like one right now.
Holy shit lmao, good luck.
Draw your characters feet... That will help a lot to understand the perspective and position... The snow here do not look like a solid ground, it feel like a kind of mist and it's hard to understand...
The background is empty too, we have really no information about perspective : they are in mountains but the place where they are expend until becoming the mountains behind without transition ? Where is the end of this place ? Why are they here, a place where everybody can look at their secret training ? Shouldn't ninja hide in more closed space for that ?
Here something that can help you to understand : http://irulan18.files.wordpress.com/...-bill-snow.jpg In this image, you know, without looking at the full movie, where they are, what's happening... You really need to define more things in your picture. If you want Akali to be chained, draw the attachs in the floor, accentuate the restriction to show how immobile she have to be. If you want Shen to appear like a trainer, maybe give him another posture, less agressive and use light or rubbons to show more the bell...
And for Kennen, take a look to guild wars 2 asura or real child proportion, actually he is more a scary puppet than a yorddle... Your realistic drawing wil make him difficult to justify...
That disembodied giant head in the background is skeevy.
I was once on the receiving end of a critique so savagely nasty, I marched straight out of class to the office and changed my major (sketchbook).
too much leventep style speed painting, and not enough thumbnailing or 3d forms. think about what you want us to look at and make them big and in the focal point of the image. i never even saw the bell on his sword. the little Shredder's head thing is bizarre. there are 1.6 shitzillion art images of people fighting or about to fight with swords, its th emost played out trope ever, but it does mean there are some very good works out there; find the best ones and study their structure.

Hey thanks for being so patient with me, ive tried to consider a lot of things that were said. Ive made it a forest/ rocky environment in the hope that the trees help with the depth perception. Ive also made them more level with each other and brought them out the snow by adding feet. The chains and bell are hopefully more predomiant with the the latter coming across the arm rather than dangling in darkness. Sorry its still a little on the rough side but as a thumbnail it looks a lot better too, so thats a good sign. Is this a better direction you lot were trying to steer me in? Do things still need moving or adjusting?

sorry but i already said your copying leventep too closely, putting them in a snowy forest is making it even more similar.. either do a direct study and label it, or do your own. copying right down to her feet disappearing in the snow is teaching you little useful and a lot of bad habit.

You probably should have noted that these are characters from League of Legends and that it is for the current contest they are having. This would resolve some questions that are probably floating around.
Also, Kennen should have little ears coming out of the top of his head. He is a yordle after all.
Apologises i have left out a lot, cause i didnt think it was necessary to label everything. But this is for the LoL contest to include atleast one item and one champion, training for the next season. As well as Levente i looked at Oleg Saakyan http://graphitehead.com/wp-content/u...e_guardian.jpg for the background, mountains and that minimal value shift and Marcus Ranum stocks for Shen (guy on the right) http://mjranum-stock.deviantart.com/...4077?offset=72
I think i got too focused on just punching out the final outcome, i forgot to still see this as a learning exercise. On reflection i should just work harder to find better references instead of looking so closely at the pose/ grass, cause working from a speed paint is pretty dumb considering they take shortcuts based on years of experience. Although in Levente's image the background is very undefined, so im not sure how adding a forest like http://static3.depositphotos.com/100...horizontal.jpg would make it look even more similar... if anything the thumbnail is moving further away from it, maybe im wrong but its still subjective nonetheless. Guess i was trying those two elements to see if it would add anything, the foreground grass doesnt really remain coherent in the image hence i took that out in the latest iteration. As for the pose i reckon it adheres very much to the champions aesthetics.
Huuum I'm not sure they have forest with this kind of trees in "asia" ? Even if they are fantasy characters, I often see bamboo forest as a place of choice for that kind of fight... I may be totally wrong as I don't know a lot of things about geographics in this part of the world :/
You are actually wrong about that Griffonage. Temperate forests are common in east asia. I think that bamboo forests are used so often because it's so iconic for the region. A fast and easy way to make the setting and the mood stronger.
If you are interested BBC made quite an astonishing nature documentary about China called Wild China. It has some of the most spectacular and scenic landscapes I have ever seen.

That's very interesting, thanks, I loooove documentaries ! I will take a look, that's really a part of the world I don't know.You are actually wrong about that Griffonage.

I know, I play it (I'm not part of the contest no worries I'm not trying to do a sabotage ), but if you put all the ninja-like characters of the game together in a "martial art" situation, you create yourself a mood that can enforce or not the image.It is also a fantasy world, there is no "Asia"
Just try to put that scene on a pirate ship and you create something different. Obviously they are not in the tortured forest either, that's why I was thinking about something more typical from "asia" to remind their "home" and push the traditionnal martial art part showed in the picture for a better understanding. Bamboo are stereotype I agree as already said I don't know a lot of things about asia.
Currently there is nothing in the landscape that remind "league of legend", their are not using their spell of something typicall from the game, landscape is suggested and there is no typical "action" (tower destruction, blue/red buff fighting, jungling...).
That's not a problem of course but currently the image rely only on the characters (well made but in a style and clothes a little differents from the game) to help recognize the scene and storytelling. I play league of legend and it took me a moment before being sure it was shen and akali, at first I just didn't recognize kennen... When you identify them it's okay, but it's not instant, that's what I feel "sad"
I admit I don't remember well all the lore, but that could be interesting to dig in the text description from the world they came from and see about something that can make a link. Here they are in a training place specially dedicated for them, that's what I would try to push to help a global understanding of the whole picture no matter the way, if temperated forest can do the deal, let's go.
Well of course that's just my though feel free to disagree !

Published: Oct. 30, 2008
Updated: Apr. 26, 2012
In this DukeHealth.org podcast, Dr. Jeffrey Marcus tells us all about rhinoplasty, also known as nose surgery.
Listen to this podcast (requires iTunes)
This is Dr. Jeff Marcus for Duke University. We're talking today about rhinoplasty.
What is rhinoplasty? Rhinoplasty is surgery of the nose. Plastic surgeons see patients seeking changes in the nose for both aesthetic reasons as well as functional reasons. Many patients have both.
Rhinoplasty is a marriage of both form and function, as are other things that we deal with in medicine and in dentistry.
For example, the teeth serve an important function. A beautiful smile is an important aesthetic trait, but the teeth also allow you to chew.
The nose has important functional attributes as well. The nose allows you to breathe.
From an aesthetic standpoint, it's an important part of your anatomy. It stands at the forefront of your face. It's something that people see immediately when they see you. It's very prominent.
The importance of nasal breathing cannot be overemphasized either, though. Ease in breathing allows you comfort while you are sleeping and allows you comfort while you exercise.
Rhinoplasty comes from words like "rhino" – which means nose – and "plasty" – which means change. So "rhinoplasty" is change of the nose.
Aesthetics play a role in rhinoplasty. Many patients come to visit seeking a change in their nose to enhance their beauty. Some patients see plastic surgeons to address functional problems, breathing problems. And many patients have both functional and aesthetic problems that they wish to have treated.
From a functional standpoint, there are a number of parts of the anatomy that are important for the nose. One that you hear quite often is the septum.
What is the septum? The septum is a sheet of cartilage that separates the right and left sides of the nose. There are two sides to the nasal airway, both right and left. If the septum leans one way, or bends one way or the other, that's called septal deviation. Septal deviation can cause problems breathing on either side.
Septoplasty is a common procedure that is done to straighten the septum so that it is easier to breathe through the nose.
Another part of the anatomy that is important are the turbinates. The turbinates are outpouches of mucosa that are found on both sides of the nose. They periodically increase in size, first on one side and then the other. You may notice that when you turn to one side or lay on one side versus the other, the obstruction that you feel on one side goes away. That's the turbinates at work. Its periodic swelling and that's normal. Sometimes patients have enlarged turbinates, which is a chronic condition that doesn't get better with position.
Finally, the nasal airway is affected simply by its size on either side. Some patients have a narrow space on one or both sides. That space can be increased on either side. You may be familiar with athletes who wear adhesive strips on the nose. This dilates the middle of the nose so that it's easier to breathe.
There are procedures that can be done to improve your breathing depending on what the cause is.
From an aesthetic standpoint there are many concerns a patient might have with the appearance of their nose. The key for a plastic surgeon is to figure out what patients want, what is it that they are looking for, what might be right for them.
A factor that plays in here is a patient's ethnicity. Different patients with different ethnic backgrounds can have different attributes. Some patients would like to have some of those attributes enhanced or changed. Nowadays it's less frequent that patients would like to absolutely change their nose and change their ethnicity. They like the way they look – they just want to look a little better: To decrease certain features, or to enhance certain features. There's a lot of difference between rhinoplasty now and what people may have heard or been familiar with back in the 1970s and 1980s. Today people are seeking natural changes, more people want to retain their look, their ethnicity.
This doesn't remove the surgeon entirely from the process. It's not only about what the patient wants, but also about what's realistic, what can be done for them. A surgeon can help guide a patient to know what would fit for them, what would work for them. Are the changes that they want realistic? Or are they unrealistic?
What kinds of concerns do patients often have from a cosmetic standpoint?
There are a number, and it does depend on the individual. Some common things that people ask about are problems with their nasal tip – either they have a bulbous tip that looks too large or too round, or it looks somewhat boxy. Some patients feel that their nose just generally looks too big.
When patients have a general concern, we try to help them pinpoint which areas they specifically like or don't like.
A bump on the nose is sometimes referred to as a dorsal hump. This is one of the most common things plastic surgeons continue to see and its one of the most straightforward things to correct.
Sometimes patients have asymmetry. Asymmetry can affect the tip, asymmetry can affect the dorsal line – the line running down the nose – making it look like the nose twists. Sometimes patients can have asymmetry as the result of trauma, but often it's simply the way someone is. Everyone has a certain degree of asymmetry.
For patients seeking aesthetic corrections, or who have problems with nasal function or both, they can visit with us at Duke Plastic Surgery. Procedures that are performed to correct these problems are done at the Duke Aesthetics Center. The Duke Aesthetics Center is a private facility located nearby Duke University. Privacy is paramount to us, particularly in cosmetic surgery. Our faculty at Duke are all present within the Aesthetic Center, including, and most importantly, board-certified anesthesiologists.
Nowadays, concerns regarding safety are most important. Patients should consider not only the surgeon, but also the facilities in which they work and the staff with which they work.
For more information about rhinoplasty, to correct aesthetic or functional problems, you may contact my office at 919-668-3110, or visit www.dukehealth.org.

You should try to avoid inside 30 degree angle walls for aesthetics and flow as the vanity seems to be tight it the corner. Try something like this:

For Immediate Release
Contact: Nancy Webber, 518.782.9400, ext. 223
Latham, NY – Dec. 16, 2008 – The allocation of $2 million in the 2008-09 state budget for nursing education at State University of New York (SUNY) institutions has borne fruit. Because of this funding, about 230 additional students were able to enter SUNY nursing programs this year.
Unfortunately, the Executive Budget released today will cut that funding by 15%.
"Support for nursing education is crucial in bringing more registered nurses into the workforce," said Tina Gerardi, RN, chief executive officer of the New York State Nurses Association. "It is essential that funding be continued and expanded. Meeting the increasing demand for nurses continues to be a challenge and any reduction in funding for nursing education puts the health and safety of every New Yorker at risk."
A report released in November by the Center for Health Workforce Studies found that current supply of registered nurses in New York State is below national ratios. The number of RNs working in the state is projected to increase by only 6% in the decade between 2005 and 2015. An 8% increase will be necessary just to keep staffing levels where they are now.
"Patient care also is threatened by the proposed $3.5 billion in cuts to hospitals and nursing homes, which will make it even more difficult for facilities to hire and retain nurses," Gerardi said. "The Nurses Association will be joining other unions at the State Capitol on Jan. 7, 2009, to urge the legislature to maintain our healthcare system."
The New York State Nurses Association is the voice for nursing in the Empire State. With more than 36,000 members, it is the state's largest union and professional association for registered nurses. It supports nurses and nursing practice through education, research, legislative advocacy, and collective bargaining.

The lead in item for this group really spoke to me. I feel many of the frustrations, fears and anxiety expressed. I retired (forced out really) end of 2011 and have been struggling with learning to live in this new world.
I need the support of this group. Relatives (Mother, Sisters and Daughter) are not understanding and I have stopped communicating. Spouse relies on me for everything and my brain is so dazed and confused, I can't think clearly. Fear I have made and am continuing to make decisions without full knowledge, full disclosure from the people who just want the money or just want not to deal with me anymore. Have an IRA with Hartford - don't understand how it really works or if I did the right thing by setting it up.
I am a mess. Is there any help for me? Finding this discussion group is a start. Joining the money and health discussion groups next.
Menopause threw me into another world. The condition did not warrant a disability retirement but it clearly should be for it changed my quality of life and made the life I was living unbearable. The progression was slow and unkind. Didn't realize what was happening at first, tested for everything under the sun, depression set in, wasn't sleeping, eating, dragging though the day - hoping just to be able to stay on my feet, anger, saddness, quick tempered, mood swings, heart palpitations, anxiety attacks that felt like heart attacks. It has been hell and continues to be so especially at night. Worrying about future constantly.
So, to the Poster named - Scared as Heck - I know how you feel.

Some humans would do anything to see if it was possible to do it. If you put a large switch in some cave somewhere, with a sign on it saying 'End-of-the-World Switch. PLEASE DO NOT TOUCH', the paint wouldn't even have time to dry.

On the plus side, the stretch goals look nice. The free shipping world wide is a boon for those who live over seas, since they are based out of the UK that'd be me for a change. The henchmen/hirelings box set sounds very tempting.
Over all, I think I'll wait a bit and mull it over before I decide.
Remember, even in Russia, it is Kaladrax that plays with you!

Some of the stretch goals are a little different that interest me, and it looks like they'll be using some familiar sculptors. However while I've backed several projects through Kickstarter, I find this funding site harder to navigate for info and site policy. I think I'll adopt a wait and see stand on it.

Like others, I am turned away by the lack of females in initial releases. And I'm not encouraged by the lack of concept art for the ones that will eventually happen.
The initial cleric has a jewel-encrusted cross...I have a hard time imagining a fat Catholic friar traipsing through a dungeon in a fantasy world that doesn't have Catholics. Seems poorly planned to make a mini unwelcomed by most campaign settings' pantheons.
The initial ranger is yet another Tanis Half-elven clone...especially after Darksword just released such a lovely series of Not-Dragonlance Minis, do we need another Tanis clone? At least it's not Drizzt.
Just because I want to sound like more of a pedant, I'll say "initial" one more time.
My money will stay with Patrick's Bombshell KS.
Current workbench: Wyrmgear (boss monster for Eberron; WiP here). 35 pts of Legion of Everblight (19/35 complete). RP Draconians Box Set.
Why yes, that is a Kaladrax on my shoulder. Why do you ask?
Posted 28 September 2012 - 03:18 PM
They look very nice, but I note with immense frustration that there's not a single female character option available until one hits the $160 level pledge.
You can pledge at the level that gets you one set and email Richard to change it from Set 1(Male Humans) to Set 3 . If you read the comments he's already told others that won't be a problem.
I'm in for Level 7. It's the Henchmen box I want the most. I hire a lot of hirelings when I play.
Posted 28 September 2012 - 03:38 PM
Even progressive versions of the same characters, from cannon fodder to veteran adventurer would have been more likely to capture my imagination, and money. :)

XXVI IUSSP International Population Conference
27 September–2 October 2009
Relevance of parental aspirations in determining schooling and work for adolescent girls in Pakistan (Poster no. 74)
Minhaj ul Haque
Pakistan currently has the largest cohort of young people in its history (50 million aged 10–29), and subsequent cohorts are projected to be even larger. This paper investigates the relevance of parental aspirations in influencing the lives of young girls (ages 15–24 years) in Pakistan. It also explores the role of sociodemographic and opportunity-related community factors that may or may not influence the lives of young girls in comparison to the aspirations of parents. The analysis is based on data from the nationally representative survey "Transitions to Adulthood: Education, Work and Marriage among Adolescents and Youth in Pakistan." In total, 8,074 young people were interviewed from 4,530 households along with an adult of the family. Results will be segregated by gender of parent, region, and socioeconomic status. Logistic regressions will be used to determine the influence of the set of factors on education and work of young females in Pakistan.

Sigma Tau Delta
A national honor society, Sigma Tau Delta's central purpose is to confer distinction upon students of the English language and literature in undergraduate, graduate, and professional studies. Sigma Tau Delta also recognizes the accomplishments of professional writers who have contributed to the fields of language and literature.
The Epsilon Xi Chapter of Sigma Tau Delta at Louisiana College received its charter in the spring of 1977. Approximately 125 students have been inducted into the chapter since that time.
Members of the chapter have gone on to distinguish themselves in fields of law, journalism, teaching (middle school, high school, and college), and theology. Several members have received an M.A. and/or Ph.D. in English.
Representatives of the chapter have attended four international conventions of Sigma Tau Delta.
Two members have had original compositions published in Rectangle, the creative writing magazine produced semiannually by the international office of Sigma Tau Delta at Northern Illinois University.
National Website:
The creative writing magazine, lower case, has been published eight times since 1977. Since 1978, it has been edited and published by the Epsilon Xi Chapter.
Sigma Tau Delta Students Attend Humanities Conference
In early April of 2013, five members of the Epsilon Xi chapter of Sigma Tau Delta, an International English Honor Society, attended the Second Annual Humanities Conference at LSUA. The students heard papers presented by both faculty and students and then participated in the panel and forum discussions.
Sigma Tau Delta Induction Ceremony
The Louisiana College Epsilon Xi chapter of Sigma Tau Delta inducted five new members Tuesday evening, April 23, 2013, in the Formal Lounge of Granberry Conference Center. SigmaTau Delta President Haley Laird led the ceremony and inducted the new members. Dr. Cheryl Clark, Chair of the Humanities Division, offered a welcome and shared with the attendees the value of an English degree. Dr. Neil Johnston, Assistant Professor of English, spoke about the purpose of the English honor society, built on Sincerity, Truth, and Design. The five new members inducted are Alexa Edwards, Steven Craig Jones, Paige Jordan, Ashley Price, and Emily Smith. A reception followed the induction ceremony.
Sigma Tau Delta Partners with Better World Books and the National Center for Family Literacy in Book Drive
The Louisiana College Epsilon Xi chapter of Sigma Tau Delta has partnered with Better World Books to participate in a book drive to increase literacy rates worldwide and to provide campuses with an environmentally responsible outlet for books. Last academic year, over 50 Sigma Tau Delta chapters collected nearly 50,000 books from campus book drives and raised over 10 million dollars for non-profit literacy initiatives and libraries worldwide. The collected books are shipped to the BWB warehouse and are listed for resale on over twenty online marketplaces. Every book that sells funds a non-profit partner of the chapter's choice. Unsellable books are donated to a literacy partner or recycled. President Haley Laird and Vice President Paige Jordan announced that LC's Sigma Tau Delta has designated the National Center for Family Literacy (NCFL) as its literacy partner. Since 1989, this organization has helped more than 1 million families make educational and economic progress by pioneering and improving family literacy programs. According to NCFL, research shows that home and community are the true drivers of a child's education. Children's reading scores dramatically improve when parents are involved in helping them learn to read. Because literacy is essential in today's economy, Sigma Tau Delta, Better World Books, and the National Council Family Literacy are building a bridge to ensure that the cycle of learning and progress passes from generation to generation.

Integrated kitchen ventilation system
Greenheck's Vari-Flow integrated kitchen ventilation systems reduce energy costs by modulating exhaust and supply airflows to match cooking operation demands and have temperature sensors that are exposed to quick changes in cooking activity.
Greenheck's Vari-Flow integrated kitchen ventilation systems allow food service managers and building owners to reduce energy costs by more precisely modulating exhaust and supply airflows to match cooking operation demands. Temperature sensors located in the hoods' capture area are directly exposed to quick changes in cooking activity that result in a five times faster response to cooking load changes. This feature, coupled with fan-speed turndown of 50% and high-efficiency Vari-Green motors, offers total energy savings in terms of electrical, heating, and cooling costs. Greenheck's Vari-Flow kitchen ventilation system can be controlled with a keypad or the touchscreen control that features independent light and fan control, programmable fan scheduling, VFD and help diagnostics to monitor energy usage, and live/historical energy monitoring and trending. The Vari-Flow system is compatible with BACnet MSTP/IP, LON, and ModBus to easily integrate the system into a wide range of building management systems.

New answers tagged word-choice
No 勇気な戦士 does not make sense, because 勇気 is not a na-adjective.
If you want to use 勇気 (you probably do), you have to say 勇気がある and when this modifies a noun (like 戦士), you should use no-ga conversion to get
Another option is the word 独得(どくとく). It means learning by oneself according to the app Imiwa?. Denshi Jisho lists the same meaning and says it's a common word. I've used it in conversation and wasn't corrected but that doesn't mean much.
Husband can use all of these like 私の家内, 私の嫁, うちの嫁, 私の妻, うちの奥さん, かみさん, うちのかみさん. In these words, かみさん is friendly and colloquial. Other persons cannot use 家内, 嫁, 妻, because it's not polite. Others can say あなたの奥さん, おたくの奥さん, おかみさん.
Wife says 私の主人, うちの主人, 私の夫, うちの旦那. In these words, 旦那 indicates the wife is not respectful of her husband. If others use 夫, it's ...
As (I hope) you could tell from the pronunciations of the two words, 「[詳]{くわ}しい」 is a [大和言葉]{やまとことば} (an originally Japanese word) and 「[詳細]{しょうさい}」 is a Sino loanword.
As with most other pairs of the two classes of words, 「詳しい」 and 「詳細な」 basically have the same meaning and the 大和言葉 sounds more informal and less technical than its Sino lowanword ...
As someone who has been learning for sometime I would say that, as a broad rule of thumb for a pair such as this, both mean the same thing in your examples but 詳細 is more formal and more likely to used in written Japanese, especially on technical matters.
Additional comment:
I think it is also fair to say the "pure Japanese adjectives" such as 詳しい are ...
(I'm not a native speaker, nor am I a linguist.)
It seems to me that, both ぬ and ざる are used, but there is a difference. They are used for different writing styles. ぬ is used in 和文 while ざる is used in 漢文, as well as constructions borrowed from 漢文. I think that's why ざる appears much more frequently in that passage.
And also, ざる is used to conjugate ず ...
Your intuition is correct. It is intentionally done for the purpose of double-checking and triple-checking the date.
For "tomorrow", we just have three different readings and we take full advantage of it by using at least two of them in confirming something that is scheduled for the next day. The same is done with "day after tomorrow" as well by using ...
You might know that every time numbers appear in Japanese, they are usually accompanied by a counter word, e.g. つ, 個, 回, 番, ...
To say "three items" you can say 3つ, "3 pieces" is 3個, "three times" is 3回, "number three" is 3番.
To make the number into an ordinal, e.g. "three" into "third", you simply add 目 as so
3つ目 third item
3個目 third piece
3番目 ...
Chronologically (This is the third time this happens) → 3度目, 3回目
Ranked (I am the third best player in the world) → (第)3位
Other? Maybe other context I haven't thought of that has meaning in Japanese but less in other languages? → 3つ目, 3番目, 第3番
You can use この前 to express the most recent occurrence relative to now.
Some examples :
How were your last exams?
Did you go to the last class?
He played golf last Sunday.
Where did we leave off last time?
To simply express something that occurred just ...
I think よく火を入れた[方]{ほう} / 火をよく入れた方 is understandable... but if they don't understand it probably you could try:
よく焼けてる方 etc.
to say "The one cooked longer (is mine)" as a response to "Which is yours?" (Normally, you don't use the phrase よく火を入れる when ordering steaks/meat dishes. I think you're more likely to see/hear it in ...
「肉の焼き加減」is more appropriate.
I am an IT engineer, we use 「火を入れる」when you boot up servers(machines)
I view ざる as old Japanese(from before the Yedo era) but ぬ can be used in today's Japanese as well as in the old. In old Japanese, ざる is interchangeable with ぬ, both have the same level of colloquiality. In today's Japanese, I feel ない more common than ぬ.
はなれざる故か/はなれぬ故か oldest - はなれぬためか a little old - はなれないためだろうか nowadays
For き and かる, き indicates past tense ...
帰る, sometimes translated as "to go home" is the preferred way to say "to go back", when you speak about your home country, your home town, your parents' home, etc.
For example,
I have to go back to Australia next month.
来月オーストラリアに帰らないといけない。 (or any other version of "have to")
If you've lived in another country, then saying
sounds ...
Let us get the phrases straight if we want to discuss them.
You wrote 「Aを[心配]{しんぱい}かける」 twice, so I do not think it was a typo. The only correct particle to use in that expression is 「に」. 「を」 is not possible.
If you or anyone is unfamiliar with this usage of 「に」, I just happened to talk about it in another thread a few days ago. 君に話しがある How does this ...
To answer the title question as a simple yes-no question, the only logical answer would be "Yes, it is." The phrase clearly uses a [敬語]{けいご} twice,「[拝見]{はいけん}」 and 「いたす」, which satisfies the definition of [二重敬語]{にじゅうけいご}.
Is the phrase 「拝見いたしました」 "incorrect" then? According to me, no, it is not. Why not? Because it is in such wide use and it just ...
As far as I can tell, there is no real difference between the potential form (-える or -られる, depending on the verb) and することができる: they can be used interchangeably. That said, in normal conversation, you'll probably hear -える/-られる used more often, since it's much shorter.
Also, する itself has no potential form, so it can be replaced entirely by できる. Thus, ...
Searching the Balanced Corpus of Contemporary Written Japanese (BCCWJ) gives the following results:
ピーナツ 116件
ピーナッツ 188件
So it seems like the latter is somewhat more common. All of these results are drawn from contemporary sources, and although ピーナッツ is more common, ピーナツ is common enough that I think, descriptively speaking, both spellings should be ...
大辞泉 has
(「ピーナッツ」とも) ラッカセイの実。南京(ナンキン)豆。
=> ピーナツ.
but I think that ピーナッツ is a more modern spelling, respecting that ピーナッツ is related to ナッツ (ナツ is not a valid transcription of "nut(s)"). I checked with my trusted Japanese cuisine expert, and her verdict is that nobody really writes ピーナツ anymore. (Her recipe( book)s all contain ピーナッツ.)
The kanji 容 carries the meaning "to accept", "to allow". Similar constructs include 許容 容認 容赦 etc. The 容 here is used for the same meaning. I.e. 耐容 does imply how much it can tolerate harm being done. 耐性 on the other hand is neutral.
To recap, 耐性 can be used to refer resistance against both benefit and harm, while 許容 can only be used for resistance against ...
飛行場 refers to a small local airport with a short runway, often with no regular commercial airline service. It is mostly for private use of small-size aircrafts.
空港 refers to a larger airport with longer runways that serves the general public.
Some (but not many) native speakers use the two words interchangeably in informal conversations.
As an alternative to 遅刻 and its variants you can flip it around a little bit and say 間に合わないよ, which I think is also a common way to say it. So instead of saying that you'll be "late" you're saying you "won't be on time."
Here you have the ordinal 2, plus the counter 両{りょう}, which is used to count the cars on a train. The combination 2両 would mean "two [train] cars".
When you add the ordinal suffix 目{め} to 2両, it changes from "two cars" to "the second car". So, the whole phrase 前から2両目 really means the second car from the front (of the train).
Your sentence does not ...
I feel にすぎない and にかぎらない are more formal/academic than だけ and だけじゃない.
I have always got by taking 方法 as method or "way of doing" and 手段 as "a means": As Tokyo Nagoya says, there is some overlap but if you know when to use method and means in English then try to do the same in Japanese.
(Hint: I think 方法 is the easiest to adopt. You could leave 手段 until after you have heard it used more.)
Just to add to Tokyo Nagoya's answer, I thought it'd be useful to mention that "名前は何ですか" is perfectly grammatical, and the reason that it can sound non-native is cultural.
Japanese tend to avoid questions that are too direct. Especially, the 何 can sound a bit direct or crude.
One way to get around this is to ask in a different way, as Tokyo Nagoya ...

Attempt 1 of dressing up for Christmas: Reindeer's ears
Verdict : Failed. Berry's giant ears blocked out any visibility of the Reindeer's ears. The life of corgis and their large party hats ears!
Kipper loves Christmas. He gets to take cute pictures. It's deceptive though because I use his favorite words to make him look cute and then he goes back to being sad. So I had my sister take a side picture so you could see how upset he really is. But he was very happy when I took the decorations off and gave him a treat.
Dear Mr. Sandy Claws,
Dis kissmas I want all da cookies and I wanna eat dem whenever I want! I also want moar kisses.
Corgi & Friends Christmas Cards now in my shop!!! I'm super excited to release these because I spent blood, sweat, and tears to get these made by myself. You can get all the details of the card on the etsy listing, but they're printed with Epson Archival Inks on 80# Matte Paper, and they're cut, scored, folded, and everything by me :)

Pay and reward in London
In this project, IPPR is talking to Londoners from a range of backgrounds about who gets paid how much in London and investigating people's understanding of the relationship between pay, effort and skill.
In the UK, the gap in earnings between highest and lowest paid is out of step with public opinion. Survey data shows that the public would like to see a pay gap between top and bottom earners which is considerably smaller than the one that exists at the moment. People also consistently underestimate the ratio between those with the highest and lowest earnings by a very wide margin. Yet, politicians often find it difficult to talk about reducing earnings inequality and the public can be sceptical about the role of government in tackling large gaps, despite concern about their existence.
Large pay gaps are often justified as resulting from differences in effort, skill level, responsibility or the value added to the UK economy. But there are questions about the extent to which large differences in pay represent 'just rewards'.
Nowhere is the gap between top and bottom earners more evidence than in London. The capital is home to some of the world's highest earners but many thousands also struggle on low wages. Growing levels of pay inequality create distance between London's different communities and make it much harder for the welfare state to reduce income inequality. This project will focus on London but the findings will have relevance for the rest of the country too.
The aim of the project is give politicians, business leaders and others the tools to talk about the earnings gap in a way that responds to people's concerns and helps create the space for action.
The project will run for a year from summer 2010 and is being generously supported by the Trust for London.

SEC Form 2-A
Definition of 'SEC Form 2-A'
A filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) required to disclose the sale and use of proceeds of certain securities.
Each issuer and/or holder of securities sold in reliance upon Regulation A provisions must file seven copies of this report either every two quarters until all the proceeds of the security sale have been applied or 30 calendar days after the final sale, whichever is later. The last filing is labeled the "final report." It is important to note that the temporary investment of proceeds pending final application does not constitute an application of the proceeds and does not need to be included in this filing. |
Investopedia explains 'SEC Form 2-A'
Form 2-A, which is also known as the Report of Sales and Uses of Proceeds, is a requirement under Rule 257 of Regulation A of the Securities Exchange Act of 1933.
This act, often referred to as the "truth in securities" law, requires that these registration forms, providing essential facts, are filed to disclose important information upon registration of a company's securities. This helps the SEC achieve the objectives of this act - requiring investors to receive significant information regarding securities offered and prohibiting fraud in the sale of the offered securities. |
