When my guild was doing Rotface last night, we had a couple of problems. Mainly was me, the Off-tank/kiter, had to kite through the melee/healers because of the green ooze (slime, whatever) that comes out of 1/4th the room. Which would cause the middle of the room to die.
Is it completely necessary to avoid that, or could I possibly walk through it while trying to get out of it? Also, since I'm a warrior I have very few (long ranged) snares. Can the big ooze be rooted at all? We had a Boomkin in the raid so that would help.

Developer Productivity Tool for Microsoft Visual Studio
ReSharper is a renowned productivity tool that makes Microsoft Visual Studio a much better IDE. Thousands of .NET developers worldwide wonder how they've ever lived without ReSharper's code inspections, automated code refactorings, blazing fast navigation, and coding assistance.
How ReSharper Helps Visual Studio Users
Analyze code quality
On-the-fly code quality analysis in C#, VB.NET, XAML, ASP.NET, ASP.NET MVC, JavaScript, CSS, HTML, and XML. ReSharper tells you right away if your code contains errors or can be improved.
Instantly traverse your entire solution
Navigation features to instantly traverse your entire solution. You can jump to any file, type, or type member in no time, or navigate from a specific symbol to its usages, base and derived symbols, or implementations.
Eliminate errors and code smells
Instant fixes to eliminate errors and code smells. Not only does ReSharper warn you when there's a problem in your code but it provides quick-fixes to solve them automatically.
Enjoy code editing helpers
Multiple code editing helpers including extended IntelliSense, hundreds of instant code transformations, auto-importing namespaces, rearranging code and displaying documentation.
Safely change your code base
Automated solution-wide code refactorings to safely change your code base. Whether you need to revitalize legacy code or put your project structure in order, you can lean on ReSharper.
Comply to coding standards
Code formatting and cleanup functionality is at your disposal to get rid of unused code and ensure compliance to coding standards.
More features
More features including generation of common code, extensible templates, internationalization assistance, and unit test runner.
Reasons to Upgrade to the Latest ReSharper 8
1Support for Visual Studio 2013 while keeping compatibility with four more Visual Studio versions: 2005, 2008, 2010, and 2012.
2Faster code fixes. Many of the code fixes that ReSharper suggests can now be batch-applied in the scope of a project or solution.
3Architecture tools. ReSharper can now visualize a project dependency graph for a high-level perspective of dependencies within a Visual Studio solution.
4Multifile templates. ReSharper's file templates can now be expanded into more than one file, making code generation even easier.
5New refactorings including the highly requested Move Instance Method to move methods between classes without making them static, as well as Inline Parameter and a more intelligent version of Change Signature.
6Developers working on WPF, Windows Phone and all kinds of XAML-based applications receive a new set of code inspections and quick-fixes, a pack of refactorings to manipulate styles and resources, and more XAML-specific features.
7Revised code completion. ReSharper 8 brings richer automatic completion that is able to import types, the new concept of double completion, code generation items in suggestion lists, and more improvements to IntelliSense.
8Richer CSS support. Web developers can now enjoy browser compatibility checks, new code inspections and color conversion actions, as well as CSS code completion available in many new contexts.
9Support for TypeScript that includes refactorings, navigation, code completion, rearranging code and code inspections such as detecting unused parameters and invalid CSS references.

R# is a tool that I use and absolutely love. I recommend this for anyone who uses Visual Studio and programs in C# or VB.NET. Those who use R# will see the benefits that it brings and the absolute productivity boost that you get using it.

Car insurance rates for Maryland drivers range from shocking in Baltimore to downright cheap in hilly Western Maryland. Where you live makes a lot of difference -- we've got comparable rates for every town and city in a map below -- but so does the insurance company you choose. Even in the same town, the difference in rates is usually hundreds of dollars.
Maryland car insurance requirements
|Maryland state law requires the following minimum car insurance coverage:
|Minimum bodily injury liability
|Minimum property damage liability
|Uninsured/underinsured motorist bodily injury
|Uninsured motorist property damage
|Personal injury protection
|$2,500 (can be waived)
Maryland's minimum liability limits for bodily injury compare well with other states', but anyone with a house or savings should consider increasing their liability insurance coverage across the board. Any damage you do that exceeds your limits becomes your problem, not your insurance company's.
Maryland requires its motorists buy underinsured and uninsured motorist coverage in case they are injured by someone with inadequate insurance. It also requires uninsured motorist property damage of $15,000.
While Maryland is not considered a no-fault state, it requires purchase of personal injury protection (PIP) of $2,500. You may be able to waive it if you have adequate health insurance coverage; ask your insurer.
Keep in mind, though, that PIP also pays lost wages, something your health insurance policy will not.
Mopeds need insurance, too: Mopeds and motor scooters must be titled and insured with the same level of liability and uninsured motorist as a passenger vehicle.
Too many claims?: Maryland car insurance carriers can cancel or nonrenew your policy if within the past three years you have filed two or more claims for at-fault accidents or three or more not-at-fault claims (e.g. comprehensive, uninsured motorist or PIP claims).
Besides for the claims mentioned above, auto insurers can also non-renew your policy due to:
Your credit history: Maryland does not allow insurance companies to deny you coverage, cancel your policy or raise your rates midterm based on your credit. But companies can use your credit to calculate your initial rates and must tell you if you are paying more than you otherwise would.

|The salsa with cilantro, red onion, avocado, and lime really puts this black bean chili over the top!
And this is the original photo for this recipe from back in 2008, actually not too bad for back then!
Black Bean and Beef Chili with Cilantro, Lime, and Avocado Salsa
(Makes about 6 servings, recipe adapted slightly from Fine Cooking Annual 2008.)
3 cans black beans
1 can (14.5 oz.) diced tomatoes (I like Muir Glen organic tomatoes)
1 diced Chipotle chili pepper (from a jar of Chipotles in Adobo Sauce - or substitute a pinch of ground Chipotle chile powder)
1-2 T olive oil
1 lb. very lean ground beef (less than 10% fat)
1 large red onion, very finely diced
1 T or more regular chile powder (I used Penzeys, other brands may say New Mexico chile powder or Mexican chile powder)
1 T or more ground Ancho chile pepper (also Penzeys, Ancho chile powder adds great flavor, but can use more regular chile powder)
pinch ground Chipotle chile peppers (also from Penzeys, Chipotles are smoked jalapenos, and the ground chipotle is very hot so use sparingly)
2 tsp. ground cumin or more
2 cups homemade beef stock or 1 can beef broth
1-2 T tomato paste (I used Amore Tomato Paste which comes in a tube, a product I received to sample that I'm really loving)
1/4 cup + 1/4 cup fresh lime juice (about 4 limes)
1 bunch cilantro, chopped
2 avocados, finely diced
salt and fresh ground black pepper to taste (I didn't use any salt)
In bottom of heavy soup pot, heat 1-2 tsp. olive oil and brown beef, using the back of the turner to break it into small pieces. Remove beef to bowl, then add a bit more olive oil and half the onions (about 1 cup.) Lower heat a little and cook onions until they are softened but not starting to brown. Add all the chile powders and cumin and saute about 30 seconds.
Add beef stock, browned ground beef, pureed bean mixture, drained beans from colander and tomato paste and simmer, uncovered, 30 minutes or longer. (I actually simmered my Chili at very low heat for nearly two hours. Halfway through the cooking time, taste to see if you want additional chile powder. I think chile powder is something you need quite a bit of in a dish like this.)
While Chili simmers, dice avocado and place in plastic bowl with 1/4 cup fresh lime juice. (I used Elise's method to chop the avocado inside the skin, which was easy and not messy.) Rinse and finely chop the cilantro. Mix rest of the chopped onion (about 1 cup) and half the chopped cilantro (about 3/4 cup) into the avocado-lime juice mixture. (This can be kept in the refrigerator while the Chili cooks, but be sure to mix the lime juice with the avocado as soon as you cut it to keep the avocado from turning brown.)
Just before serving Chili, stir in the other 3/4 cup chopped cilantro and 1/4 cup lime juice and cook about 5 minutes. Taste and season with salt and black pepper if desired. Serve Chili hot, with a generous scoop of avocado salsa on top of each serving.
To adapt this recipe for Crockpot:
Reduce the beef stock to 1 or 1 1/2 cups (depending on how thick you want the chili. Use an extra tsp. of regular and ancho chile powder. (I wouldn't increase the chipotle chile powder; you can add hot sauce at the table if you want more heat.) Cook 3-4 hours on high or 7-8 hours on low (depending on how hot your Crockpot cooks.) Turn to low when you add the lime juice and cilantro.
South Beach Suggestions:
Superbowl Chili from the Past:
Two years ago I made Not Just for the Superbowl Chili and took it to a party at my brother Mark's house for the traditional Denny Family Superbowl Party. (It's a photo from my old camera, so the picture isn't the greatest, but that's a delicious Chili recipe too with beef, sausage, olives, mushrooms, and two kinds of beans.)

With the focus on the urban environment cityscape photography seeks to capture the experience of city life in all its forms. Whilst the subject matter of many of these images will no doubt be familiar to you, photographers have proved versatile in being able to offer a fresh perspective of some of the most snapped landmarks in the world. Photographers like Henri Silberman revel in the buzz surrounding bustling metropolises, taking in the crowd, culture and quick-changing pace, while James Blakeway's high-risk exploits of hanging from helicopters ensure the creation of the most breathtaking cityscapes the world has ever seen.
Sign up for the Easyart newsletter to take advantage of this exclusive offer and receive updates on the latest artists and collections.
Gives the frame its character and provides the perfect setting for an artwork to be fully enjoyed.
Protects the artwork from dust and wilting so that it can be admired for many years.
Adds depth to an image and works with the moulding to enhance and protect the artwork.
Bonds to the artwork ensuring it is perfectly smooth and holds the whole frame together.
We partner with the world's top museums and galleries to bring you exclusive prints of the highest quality. Our teams of designers ensure the colours are accurate, papers are well suited and the best frames are suggested.
In the printing room, artworks are printed on state-of-the-art machines with a team of technicians checking colour and quality every step of the way.
After being cut down to size, our team carefully finish any stray edges, check measurements and prepare the prints for mounting and framing.
We have a team of master framers who work with high-quality, responsibly-sourced wood to create our vast range of framing combinations - each frame is bespoke and made to order for every print.
Our selection of hand-finished frames are painted or stained by hand in a variety of colours, and finished with a layer of wax - the end result is a uniquely crafted, beautiful frame that is made to last.
In this workshop everything comes together - the print, the frame and the glass - in a seamless and stream-lined process.
The artwork is carefully mounted in preparation for framing.
Once mounted, the print is ready to be covered by glass or perspex - a delicate procedure but expertly done with not a fingerprint in sight.
After a final, thorough check, the framed print is ready to be carefully packaged up and shipped to the customer.
For those who order their art as canvas prints, the same amount of attention and care goes into the process. Here, the print is being transferred to a wooden frame.
As with the framed prints, our canvases are all hand-finished in the workshop - a labour of love from start to finish.

The NCAA Tournament is no foreign place for the Huskies, but they failed to prevail out of the first round, being beaten by the #8 seeded Iowa State Cyclones in the first round. The Huskies will lose two major stars as they head on to have great careers in the NBA in Jeremy Lamb and Andre Drummond. Lamb led the team in scoring while Drummond did the same in rebounding. The two will be greatly missed, but Calhoun is relying on the play of Shabazz Napier and Ryan Boatright this season. The two will form one of the best backcourts in the country and will be exciting to watch. However, the Huskies will need a bunch of help in the frontcourt, which is why they went out and got C Phillip Nolan from the Rivals Top 150 Board. He was not the only player they were able to snag, as they cushion their dominant backcourt with the Brooklyn guard Omar Calhoun. Sharing the same last name as the head coach is not the only thing Omar and Jim have in common, as they are both true winners.
The Huskies won the NCAA Championship two times in the last decade, winning in 2004 and 2011. In 2004 the team was led by current NBA players Ben Gordon and EmekaOkafor. In 2011 the team was led by college superstar and rising NBA star Kemba Walker. The Huskies also have a lot of players that went on to play NBA basketball including: Ray Allen, Rudy Gay, Ben Gordon, Richard Hamilton, EmekaOkafor, Caron ButlerHasheemThabeet, Charlie Villanueva, Kemba Walker, Jeremy Lamb, and Andre Drummond. All of those players currently hold a spot on an NBA roster, an impressive feat for the program.
Gold Coast Tickets does not want you to miss out on the action as Jim Calhoun takes his amazing backcourt and hopes to make a run in the NCAA Tournament this year!

DW tanking is pretty much dead with the changes. It is now just a gimmick, since the talent that really gives DW its "punch" is almost at the end of the Frost Talent Tree.
This is probably a question that has already been answered but I didn't see anything prior to posting this thread. I was wondering if anyone knows if DW tanking will still be a viable scenario when the new talents come into play?
At the moment I am a DW Tank but from what I have read so far there may not be much need for DW anymore. Does anyone have an guidence on this subject? Will DW be a purley cosmetic thing when all is said and done?
I ask because, like before, there would be an opportunity to take Nevers of Cold Steel when I consider my build.
Many thanks in advance.
DW tanking is pretty much dead with the changes. It is now just a gimmick, since the talent that really gives DW its "punch" is almost at the end of the Frost Talent Tree.
Unfortunately, DW is now pushed to a niche in Frost only.
If you want to tank, you'll have to go (2H) Blood.
DPS options are Unholy with a 2H or Frost (either, which imho should've been DW favored, but meh)
Mists of Pandaria Protection Warrior SpreadsheetOriginally Posted by Ion
Warlords of Draenor One Minute Field Guides
As mentioned...
You will technically be able to DW Tank, but, since you will have less threat, less health and less stats overall, there's absolutely no reason to do it. At least in 3.3 DWing was fairly comparable on most levels, now it will be too far behind. With no talents to support it, DW Tanking, like perm ToL form, is a thing of nostalgia.
Viable yes, Optimal no.
However I do predict we will be seeing many Blood Tanks running around with dual Rimefang's just to give everyone a headache.
DW is not viable form of tanking, either you go deep frost and do not have the survivability or either you go deep blood and then your threat won't be even close to viable.
People that say it's viable are basing it currently of mechanics and abilities in wotlk where you could use dw blood tanks for even lk heroic on 25.
What means they are measuring with two different set of weights, resulting into incorrect assumptions.
First off let us agree that for a tank to be viable means they have to be able to keep mobs on them, higher threat then dps and has to be able to take damage, higher survivability then your dps classes/specs. These two criteria have to be fullfilled.
Now by those criteria we can already root out deep frost builds in terms of survivability as they are unable to get improved blood presence the mandatory 'crit immunity' talent. What probably already even means normal dungeons won't be tanked by dps dk's just swapping to the tank (blood) pressence.
So for DW to be viable in terms of survivability it has to be blood specced.
What brings us to following criteria of threat, the strength of the frost tank builds came when threat of thassarian was added, allowing rune strikes to also hit from your offhand in addition to your main hand, that's gone.
Now in addition tests have already show that in high-end gear (wotlk) that dw blood is 30% behind 2handers, that's a lot.
Now add in to the equation, that blizzard has stated that maintaining threat will be much more of a tank task and something they have to do during the entire fight and tanks may never get into a position they have a significant threat lead that they don't have to do anything, that confort zone was to be removed.
To follow up on that, tricks of the trade and misdirection threat is only a temporary boost as it fades after 30 seconds, so it will no longer help to build the tank total threat as it does now and added onto that, all passive threat reduction talents from dps classes are gone.
Making the sum of all those changes make me pull the conclusion dual wield tanking won't excist for perhaps the exception of gimmick fights.
Feel free to correct me on any point i made, if you see any errors.
Oh, I agree. I hope you didn't feel I disagreed at any point. I'm certain Murderdoll mostly agrees as well and we're probably dithering into a different understanding of the word "viable", but you and I have the same definition of viable, a definition which has sort of become standard in the WoW community, so viable isn't a good word to use. I prefer "technically possible" as mentioned earlier, "technically possible" essentially means you CAN do it but you SHOULDN'T. Yes. You can wield two one-handed weapons and tank, but it would be equivalent to a Warrior or Paladin tanking without a Shield. You could possibly do it on content that you vastly outgear, but on any serious progression you're hamstringing yourself and your raid unnecessarily.
I'm not, I just wanted to add a clear cut clarification why it isn't a real option in detail, so that people wouldn't read my earlier comment as an "cause i said so" arguement.
You will not suffer any survival loss from Dual Wielding, you can just expect about a ~25-30% rough ballpark loss in threat output.
If you want to do it, have a ball, just so long as you get into it realizing you are working up hill. =)
The (Old) Book on Death Knight Tanking
The New Testament on Death Knight Tanking
Frost tanking, the dual wield tree, will be the equivalent of tanking as a ret paladin, or a fury warrior - possible, but a detriment to yourself, to the group, and generally a waste of everyones time.
Bloodvenom Blade as an example we get 138 stamina.
Bryntroll is 161 stamina.
Heck, even an iLvl 251 axe:
Ramaladni's Blade of Culling has 164 stamina, which is more than the combined 1-handers. There's a definite, albeit minor survival loss.
The majority of the survival loss that Acidbaron talks about, however, comes from using your talents to make the threat viable, since a 25-30% loss in threat simply won't be acceptable in progression settings.
Kathy, I said, "I'm lost" though I knew she was sleeping
I'm empty and aching and I don't know why
Counting the cars on the New Jersey Turnpike
They've all gone to look for America
Yes, as lulia said pretty much the idea of survivability loss would come for going for a deep frost threat build, what i also pointed out to not really be an option.
Also edgewalker that's basically what i said, i'm not saying it's viable i'm actually making the case that it isn't, could be that i misunderstood what you wrote however.
Edgewalker is just a pretty heavy progression raider himself and doesn't like language which suggests that something might be doable when it isn't practical in a progression setting. Satorri and myself prefer to be a bit more lenient in our language, suggesting that something might not be a good idea, but not saying not to do it outright. Just a difference in styles of helping, in the end, all of us are likely going to spec Blood and wear a 2-handed weapon to tank.
You're doing it wrong! It is black and white, night and day, right and wrong! If you aren't doing it the best way, you're doing it the WRONG way! Get it right!

1. Keep Your Content Fresh
The search engines love, love, love fresh content. Change your site's content as frequently as possible. This doesn't mean have a blog as your home page. Doing so will bounce you up and down in the rankings since your copy is constantly changing as your new posts bump off the older ones and the amount of keywords changes with each post. One photographer I know puts up a "picture of the day" each morning. That's a great way of changing up the page's content without altering your body copy.
2. Create a Search Engine Friendly Website
Using a website that is based entirely in Flash and has no body copy does not provide search engine spiders information about your site. Google relies heavily on body copy to determine what a site is about and if a site has none, all things being equal, your site will not rank as well as a site with descriptive body copy containing your keyword phrases.

Hello, Peter Shanks here, programmer, web developer and part time I.T. trainer at the Tasmanian Polytechnic.
For the last few years I've been using the web feed produced by the National Training Information System (NTIS) to automate some of the 'cut and paste' work of teaching (see Training O2). In 2011 NTIS was shut down and replaced with a brand new database and web site at training.gov.au, so I've built the site you're currently viewing to take advantage of this new data source.
NTISthis is an ongoing (if sporadic) development project, but you're more than welcome to explore and use what you find. I'm always happy to hear suggestions for improvement (or even just a 'hello' from other trainers), so don't be shy about using the 'contact' link on the right. If you'd like to show your support, please click on the social sharing buttons found in the right hand column.
To get started please browse the training packages below, or use this google powered search engine...

When most people hear the word "towels", they bring to mind the soft rectangular squares of fabric used for drying off after a bath or shower. For those with creative minds, however, bath towels and hand towels can provide a rich crafting ground for fun and gift-worthy projects. As an added bonus, most towel craft projects can be unwound or unwoven to serve their more familiar purpose after the owner is done displaying them.
Towel Origami
An art form that's gained popularity on cruise ships worldwide, delighted patrons have embraced this unusual craft on dry land as well. In addition to photo-filled books for sale that instruct novices how to make swans, turtles and more out of their towels, video sharing social sites also offer free videos for the curious. Towel origami is a great way for those interested in the traditional paper style of origami to get some experience without risking papercuts.
Boo Boo Bunnies
This super-easy craft project only requires a washcloth, rubber band, and some adhesive details like googly eyes and a pom pom. Simply roll the washcloth into a long tube, curve into a U, fold the U in half lengthwise and secure at this second fold with the rubber band. The result will be a small O shape at the bottom, a head-like bump at the front, and two tails that resemble ears above the head. Glue the eyes and nose at the appropriate places and you have a boo boo bunny! If a child is injured, an ice cube can be placed in the center of the O to enable easy handling and application to the injured area.
Bleach Art
This project works best with darker colored towels or mats and a large stencil of your desired shape. Using a clean, dry towel, place flat on an area that won't be affected by discoloring, such as a driveway or front lawn. Fill a cheap spray bottle with laundry bleach (be sure to mark the bottle as poison for safety's sake). Placing the stencil on the towel or mat and either securing with painter's tape or a gloved hand, gently spray the bleach at the void area from a distance of about a foot. This will discolor the towel into a lighter hue in the shape of the stencil. For added style, spray around the edges of the stencil to make a unique frame effect. Let the towel dry completely, then wash alone to "set" the design.

Taylor Peters
Delta British Columbia
Eligible for draft:
Free agent signing, 2013
196 lbs.
Prospect Talent Score
Probability of Success
2007-08: Taylor Peters was selected by Portland in the fourth round (68th overall) of the 2007 WHL Bantam Draft and played in his first game with the Winter Hawks as a 15-year-old in December. He played five games with Portland while spending most of the season with the Greater Vancouver Canadians in major midget hockey. Peters scored 2 goals and had an even plus-minus with the Winter Hawks. In 39 games for the Canadians he scored 10 goals with 14 assists and had 66 penalty minutes.
2008-09: Peters played 70 games for Portland in his first full WHL season. He scored 4 goals with 4 assists and was -19 with 41 penalty minutes. The Winter Hawks were last in the U.S. Division and had the league's second-worst record.
2009-10: Peters split the year between the WHL and BCHL. He opened the season with the Portland Winter Hawks and played three games before being loaned to the BCHL's Penticton Vees. He played two December games with the Winter Hawks and returned for good in January. He scored 4 goals with 3 assists in 32 WHL games and was +1 with 7 penalty minutes. Portland finished fourth in the U.S. Division and reached the second round. Peters played two playoff games and was -1 with no points nor penalty minutes. In 22 games with Penticton he scored 3 goals with 5 assists and had 16 penalty minutes.
2010-11: Peters attended the Pittsburgh Penguins' training camp as a free agent before returning to Portland for a third season. He was one of two Winter Hawks to play in all 72 games as the Winterhawks finished first in the U.S. Division. Peters scored 8 goals with 11 assists and was +5 with 19 penalty minutes. Portland defeated Spokane in the Western Conference finals before falling to Eastern Conference champion Kootenay. In 21 playoff games Peters scored 3 goals with 5 assists and had an even plus/minus with 8 penalty minutes.
2011-12: Peters attended his second NHL training camp, this time with the Minnesota Wild, but did not receive a contract offer. He played an understated but important role as Portland was again one of the WHL's top teams. Skating in all 72 games for the Winterhawks he scored 12 goals with 26 assists and was -2 with 60 penalty minutes. After finishing second in the U.S. Division behind Tri-City, Portland defeated the Americans in the Western Conference finals to face Edmonton in the finals. Peters scored 1 goal with 7 assists and was +7 with 8 penalty minutes in 22 playoff games.
2012-13: Peters attended the San Jose Sharks development camp but was not signed to a contract and returned to Portland for an over-age season in the WHL. In his fourth season with the Winterhawks he scored 15 goals with 27 assists and was +27 with 61 penalty minutes. Portland had the WHL's best record and defeated Edmonton in six games in the WHL finals to reach the Memorial Cup. Peters scored 1 goal with 9 assists and was +1 with 19 penalty minutes in 21 playoff games. Portland advanced to the Memorial Cup final against Halifax. Peters had 1 assist and was +1 with 8 penalty minutes in five Memorial Cup games. He signed a three-year entry-level contract with Dallas in March, 2013.
Talent Analysis
Determined, checking center that plays a gritty, hard-working type of a game. His right-handed shot adds to his versatility in the faceoff circle. Wins a lot of board battles and has a high attention to detail. A below-the-line type that can be integral, but unsung, part of a winning team. Not a lot of offensive gusto in his game. Not the most efficient skater, but he can get around the ice. He's willing to stand up for his teammates at the drop of a hat. Will need to concentrate and carve out a specialized niche to have hopes of being an NHL regular.
Signed as a free agent by the Dallas Stars in March, 2013.

A number of local and state agencies in partnership with business owners, residents and volunteers that support the homeless in Mendocino, will meet and discuss current and past issues with transient and homeless individuals affecting the community, according to a news release from Loren Rex, local State Parks superintendent.
All members of the Mendocino community are invited to attend the forum on Thursday, Jan. 31, 6 to 8 p.m. at Preston Hall, located on Main Street, next to the Presbyterian Church.
"This forum is intended to be solution-based, and will therefore focus on putting a plan in place for the future to involve the community in the support and accountability of the transient and homeless members of our community and reduce the impacts on business, tourism, and local residents," the release said.
