So I picked up Nidalee a little while ago and have been having a great time with her. I love how much utility and mobility she offers while still being able to deal so much damage, even when playing as a support. I've pulled off the support-gone-ap-hyper-carry game a few times already.
I have a question about her cougar form abilities. What is the logic behind having her W and E -- Pounce and Swipe -- activate in the direction she is facing as opposed to that of the mouse cursor? I often find myself devising time-consuming maneuvers to orient myself properly to walls, missing minions with my Swipe, or in other awkward situations like those. She is supposed to be one of the most mobile champions in the game, but her game mechanics seem clumsy -- walls which she runs parallel to should not be so problematic. She just isn't very smooth or nimble, and I have had some trouble wielding her.
My best guess is that these mechanics are designed to make Nidalee very quick to maneuver by minimizing clicking and aiming. I understand removing the clicks -- I think the abilities work really well with single button push activation -- I just don't get why we can't aim her Pounce with our cursors, similarly to how Karthus and Cassiopeia aim their Qs.
Also, I love her jungle speed in cougar form, but I find myself Pouncing into monster camps and missing half of them with my Swipe. Perhaps I just haven't gotten the hang of that one yet, but it's aiming feels a little wonky to me.
If someone who has mained Nid for a while could explain why her current mechanics make sense and how I can best utilize them, I would appreciate it. Thanks in advance! :3
And if we find that the current setup is no longer optimal for her gameplay, perhaps we could petition Riot to revise them in the upcoming visual rework.

i agree. nidalee has clumsy mechanic. the wall jumps are really hard to do :P
my only guess as to why riot would make her so clumsy is because she would be played very effectively by mostly everyone. maybe they wanted to make her skill curve very high so people won't complain about her stomping pub matches.

I doubt it will happen in this lifetime. Allot of double standards in the league tbh.
I'd prefer that her Pounce and Swipe worked like Riven broken wings in that when she uses it normally it will just go straight ahead but if you highlight an enemy she will go in that direction instead and go directly to the target instead of past them(not having 3 parts durr). Finally I'd like her to ignore unit collisions.
This fixes allot of problems with her controls and actually takes out most of those random instances where Nidalee controls are completely playing against you. I can't count how many times I have had everything perfectly executed and then last second Nidalee leaps back in to the oh so loving arms of her enemies.
Prepare to hear omg that would be so OP blah blah blah from allot of people who just hate Nidalee and don't play her.

I couldn't WAIT for last night's finale of The Biggest Loser. It's one of my favorite shows! I love watching them work hard and seeing what they are able to accomplish. I love their Ah- Ha moments, it helps me to push forward!
I hurried to tuck in my little ones before the show started and then began to sit down to enjoy the 2-hour finale. As I sat I realized I didn't have enough steps in for the day, only 7900, not the 10,000. I got up and started walking in place checking every once in awhile. It actually took me 30 minutes to get to 10,275 but I did it.
Then that led me to remember 2004 and how I had lost 70lbs in 3.5 months. I watched what I ate and I walked 10,000 steps six days a week. I realized that my results back then were VERY similar to the weight loss of the Biggest Loser Contestants. Unfortunately I got complacent around the holidays and then had a miscarriage before I knew it I had celebrated and stress eaten my way back up to my original 310 weight plus gained 10 more.
But the fact is I do have another chance, and another and another (if I need it) to get healthy. I will keep fighting until I get myself healthy because if I don't I've already lost.
Today, it's now 3:30, I don't have my 10,000 steps in but I'm planning ahead. One of my daughters has an eye therapy appointment every week that is 40 minutes from home. Instead of just sitting there reading a book I'm going to walk in the dark cold night (high is 25 today) and see how high I can get my pedometer. (I've packed a hat, two coats and gloves!)
As far as The Biggest Loser finale goes, it was AMAZING! The amount that all the contestants lost in a 7 month period was phenomenal! Although it's inspiring I want to lose mine at a more normal pace. No starve tactics here just eating right and trying to exercise 30-60 minutes a day six days a week. Danny and Rudy were so handsome, Rebecca win was exiting for the at-home but I didn't care for her hair, dress, or hyper personality. I was thrilled with Shay's loss. She weighed in only 1.5 more than I weigh now. I look forward to seeing her again in May.
Hey, that gives me an idea...I'm going to race with Shay. I'll compare my weight loss to hers come the May finale. That will be motivating although I won't be receiving $1,000/per pound like she'll be. Anyone want to sponsor me? I'll have to come up with some kind of award for myself if I lose more than her. Any ideas?
...As I started this week because it's now almost half empty!!!
It all started last night. I went upstairs to have a discussion with one of my teenage sons about his weekend ( and some poor choices). What I thought would be a small 5 minute discussion ended up being two hours with lots of tears from both parts. I finally hugged my huge 6'6" "little" boy, told him I loved him and wished him good night. I went downstairs and did some more crying! It's so hard to be a teenager and harder still to be the teenagers mom. My heart aches and I'm emotionally drained!
I finally fell asleep at 1:00 a.m. so I didn't get up at 5 to go to Curves. My morning did start at 6 though to get started on my transcription work and get my kiddos up and moving for school.
Then this morning as I was driving my two middles schoolers and three neighbors to school my car overheated and broke down! ARGHHHH! Thankfully I was in the school parking lot and had already dropped off the kids. So I gathered up my little ones, went inside and called my hubby. He came to the rescue but we had to leave the car there.
I'm thankful for the strength I'm feeling. My old self, just one month ago, would have caved under less pressure and would have gone to the store for Peanut M&M's, Hershey Nuggets and WHOLE milk! I would have shut the world out (or as much as I could with 8 kids to watch over, including my daycare child) grabbed a good book and eaten it ALL!
This WILL be a good day, I'm making it my mantra. It IS a good day, It IS a good day!!! I will make it so! Now I just have to figure out when to get my workout in. But for now I've clipped on my pedometer and will NOT go to bed until I reach 10,000 steps.
I'm ready for tomorrow. I'm ready to weigh in on Tuesday (and Wednesday for my BL challenge). I'm ready to feel the difference in my body, the happiness in my soul and the looseness of my clothes.
This weekend has been perfect! Yesterday I got a lot of workouts in. I'm following a routine which on Saturday means a workout at Curves at 8:30 in the morning and then a 3 mile walk in the afternoon. After my Curves workout was done I went outside to get into my car only to find it was blocked by a huge truck hanging a sign on the business next door. They told me they'd be a few more minutes. Instead of wasting my time I went back into Curves and just jogged in place on their jogging boards. (I'm wearing a pedometer so that DEFINITELY helped me get closer to my 10,000 steps).
At 1 o'clock I met my sister, along with two of my daughters, for our weekly Saturday walk at a nature park. This time we decided to take a different trail for variety. I'm definitely the slowest of the group so I told them to work at their own pace, don't wait for me, we're all in this to get ourselves healthy. My 11-year-old jogged the whole thing with my sister. My 17-year-old would run/jog ahead and then jog back to find me and walk for a little bit. Then she'd be off again running, etc, etc....
To be honest I LOVED the time I was walking by myself. It gave me so much time to think. I thought of my goals, visualized myself skinnier, healthier. A young mom with a stroller ran past me and I imagined myself doing that a year from now pushing my youngest while the others are at school.
The new trail we chose was harder, longer and had hills to climb up and stagger down. It was a WORKOUT! There were times I wanted to quit. At one point when my daughter was walking with me I said, "It's better walking here than at the track. At the track if I was tired I'd cut across the middle and go to the car. But here even though I'm tired I CAN"T give up. I have to keep walking if I want to go home. During the times it felt too much I thought of inspirational people. The Biggest Loser show, my own kids and Zircadia from Spark People. She ran her first marathon yesterday while I was struggling with my 3.5 miles. What a wonderful example she is! I ended my day with over 15,000 steps, my legs ached and were shaky but it felt SOOO good!
Today was a growth building day in a different way, it was my day of rest. On Sundays I don't exercise I give my body a break to focus on the spiritual. I was definitely spiritually fed!
In my church, I'm LDS, we have a fast Sunday. First Sunday of each month we do not eat or drink for up to 24 hours. The money that we would have spent on those meals we donate to the church which is then given to those in need. It's also a time to focus on our spirit and not our physcial body and draw closer to our Heavenly Father and Savior through prayer. After church I was able to view hundreds of nativities. They were gorgeous, all donated for the week's display at our church and from all over the world. Then I was able to listen to wonderful music and inspirational Christmas messages.
I'm so thankful to be able to start a new week. Make changes where I need to. Put my body to the test. Continue to make my weak areas stronger. Spend time with my kids and their CRAZY schedules. And help bring the true meaning of Christmas into our home trying to ignore the commercialism of it all as much as we can.
So I went for a CT Scan today as follow up from an appointment I had a few weeks ago at the ENT. As I sat in the exam room the doctor pulled up my file online. He had to leave the room at one point so I took a glance. The description he had put from my first appointment was "Nice, Obese, Clear Voice"
I'm glad he thinks I'm a nice person and as a professional considers my voice as clear (it's a good thing he didn't ask me to sing he may have put something else down) but the Obese part stung.
Yes, I know I'm obese. I hate it but the first step of change is acknowledging it. I AM OBESE. The thing I hated was actually someone writing that about me as who I am. I know it's important for the doctor's to know the health status of their patients I just wish I was in a different position so a different status could be written down.
Seeing that Five-letter word is another motivator that is going to keep this fire burning! The thing is I want to get that Obese word changed on my file. I may have to schedule another appointment in a year just to go in and say...OBESE???? Not anymore please take that off of my description.
Tuesday was my official weekly weigh-in day but I do have to admit I usually weigh myself daily. On Tuesday my scale showed an official loss of 4.8lbs!!! I was excited to get that kind of result with the past week being Thanksgiving and TOM arriving the day before. Then yesterday I got on the scale and I was down another .2. Today I got on the scale and I was another pound down...303.8!!!! I can't believe it!
I am almost out of the 300's. It is SO close I can't stand it! I think this is going to push me to work out a little harder each day and really log every bite I eat. (I've actually been doing great with that. My 9 year old got a s mall candy cane blizzard yesterday, didn't eat it all so I ate the last6 bites. I logged it and I still came out okay on my tracker.)
I see a lot of people excited to enter the ONEderlands and it is exciting for them (Hey, when I get to that point I'll be sobbing with Elation!) But for me, right now, leaving the 300's is thrilling. I haven't seen the 200's since the beginning of my pregnancy with Hannah almost three years ago.
Speaking of Hannah, a little update. It's been almost two weeks since her finger accident. Since then we've been to the specialist twice for bandage changes. I have to admit it was hard for me to see her finger. The last time, two days ago, her finger was looking worse to me. Red, puffy with green pussy scabbing. I asked the doctor about it and he said, "It actually looks really good". Okay, if you say so. He said we can start taking her bandage off at home only for showers. I visited with the older kids and let them know not to make an comments like "Oh, GROSS" "YUCK" etc... Some are a little apprehensive and said they'll leave the room when we take the bandage off for the shower. The doctor thinks it will mend nicely on it's own, if it doesn't then they'll shave off the tip of the bone and do a skin graft.
I'm so thankful for the success I'm having and that it has finally "clicked" mentally to stick with this.

Londonderry hires auditor to look at impact fees
LONDONDERRY - Londonderry has hired an independent auditor to take a closer look at the town's past two decades of impact fee collections after receiving an order by the Rockingham County Superior Court late last month.
On Dec. 31, Judge Marguerite Wageling ordered the town to hire the auditor.
In court documents, Wageling said that "the Town has been, at best, lackadaisical in their handling and documentation of impact fees . the Court cannot rely upon the Town's representations as to payment amounts, dates and the purpose for which impact fees were used."
Wageling added, "The Court sees a full accounting of the impact fee program to be the only solution to the Town's widespread misfeasance."
As a condition of the court order, the independent auditor will conduct a full review of the town's fee collections and expenditures, going back to its creation in 1994.
Town officials received the court order Monday, according to a news release issued Tuesday afternoon.
In July, interim town manager William Hart announced that the town was believed to owe up to $1.3 million in combined impact fees to local developers and property owners, which Hart attributed to improper collection processes.
Hart, the town's police chief, has been serving as temporary town manager since June 2012.
Longtime town manager David Caron had been on a leave of absence due to a family medical issue, but he resigned shortly after the mishandling of the impact fees was revealed.
Like many other Granite State municipalities, Londonderry imposes impact fees to help defray the additional costs of the town's capital improvements.
Based on the town's records and investigations into its impact fee practices, town officials concluded last summer that the town should refund the impact fees collected for improvements on state highways.
The town's record-keeping, accounting and notification practices also have been revised to ensure that the errors do not happen again.
According to Hart, as part of its efforts to remedy the situation, the town has filed a motion in Rockingham County Superior Court seeking guidance on how to return the impact fees, asking whether the impact fees should be returned to those who paid them or to the current property owners?
Wageling ruled that those who paid the fees would be eligible for refunds, regardless of who currently owns the property.
Town officials said there are no plans to appeal the court's decision, and they will comply with the court's guidance.

Last we featured MURS, he was celebrating the Yuletide on CREAM (Christmas Rules Everything Around Me). Two weeks into the new year, the West Coast stalwart's feeling considerably less merry, and it's all thanks to a certain woman. On new single The Pain Is Gone, the artist describes the rise and fall of a romantic affair, from its beginning as an online flirtation to the devastating realization that he'd fathered a child with the girl in question. Motown's Apollo Brown crafts a mournful chopped-soul-sample beat to back his cautionary bars. One of two forthcoming Mello Music Group compilations, Mandala Vol. 2, Today's Mathematic is slated to hit record stores and online retailers Tuesday, January 28.

A transportable lipstick electric powered refrigerator adapted to fit on a bureau for the cooling and storage of lipsticks.
In FIGS. 1 & 2 there is seen the main embodiment of the lipstick refrigerator 10 of this invention. The invention 10 includes three main components; namely a refrigerated storage section 11, mechanical section 12 and stand 13.
The stand 13 includes a vertical bore 14 in its upper surface, and a vertical post 15 suitably mounted therein. Optionally the stand can be weighted for stability if needed.
The refrigerated storage cabinet 11 includes a door 21 hinged (FIG. 2) on hinges 22 to storage section 23. Mounted on the rear of the storage section 23 and in refrigerant communication therewith is the mechanical refrigeration section 12. Door 21 has a handle 25 of any suitable shape on the side thereof. The handle is shown on the left with the hinges 22 on the right. Obviously the door can be made right hand opening by reversing the handles and hinges. A conventional magnetic closure system is contemplated to secure the door.
Turning now to FIG. 3 there is shown door 21 which has an interior volume 27 which is defined by the spaced vertical walls 26S, top wall 26T and the bottom wall 26B which together create the interior volume 21L.
Retainer 30 is used to keep elongated lipsticks such as "L" shown in dotted line in place within the interior of the door 21T. Retainer 30, seen also in FIG. 8 is a one piece U-shaped plate 30 having an inwardly directed top 30' and at least one, here two aligned apertures 30", through which conventional sheet metal screws can be inserted to secure retainer 30 to side walls 26S. Flange 30' serves to retain thin tubular items such as lipstick L as well as a restraint for plate 27.
Bottom retainer 29 is also of a one piece construction but lacks the inwardly directed flange. This retainer is also U-shaped and has two side walls 29S and a front wall 29F. It is attached to the door between walls 26S, while resting on door bottom wall 26B. Two aligned screw holes 29' are provided, though other attachment means are contemplated as well.
Disposed within the confines of 21L, the useable space within the door, rearwardly into the door from the rear surface of the front wall 29F of 29 are a plurality of individual U-shaped members 31 each resting on 26B and sized to receive an elongated tube of lipstick. The open end of U-shape members 31 face toward wall 29F to thereby form a rectangular compartment that is open at the top. See, FIG. 4.
Plate 27 which is optional, and which serves to further retain the lipsticks L along their lengths, fits between the heads of the screws that go into apertures 29' and 30" of U-shaped members 29 and 30 and the front walls of such retainers as well as beneath flange 30' such that it, 27 maintains a vertical disposition adjacent and behind the front long wall of each of 29 and 30. See FIG. 3.
While not mentioned specifically, it is to be understood that all walls of the compartments of the refrigerators herein, such as shown in the hatched areas of FIGS. 4 and 5 are to be suitably insulated and is known in the refrigerator art.
The discussion turns now to the storage section 23, which is seen in FIGS. 3, 4 and 5. This section has a pair of side walls 23S which are spaced from each other, a rear upstanding wall 23R, a top wall 23T and a spaced therefrom bottom wall 23B. Section 23 is open at the front and is closed off by the hinged door 21. Section 23 includes storage grid portion 32 and cooling zone 40.
Disposed between the aforesaid top, bottom and side walls is a storage grid 32. This consists of conventionally interlocked spaced vertical members 33 and horizontal members 35. These can be interlocked, glued, adhesed or otherwise secured to form a plurality of compartments, all of which share a common rear wall 34.
Each of the compartments is designated 36. The grid members both horizontally and vertically may extend the full depth of the sidewall 23S or they may extend forwardly from the rear wall 23R to occupy only a portion of the depth of the storage section 23 as may be desired. Optionally as shown on most of the compartments 36 is a face plate 37 or 39. The difference between the two, being the shape of the cutouts 37C or 39C as per FIG. 3. These cutouts are configured and sized to receive a lipstick tube.
The vertical members 33, and horizontal members 35 of the grid 32 may be made of any suitable material, e.g. plastic, wood, or metal. The same is true for the face plates 37, 39, which may be secured in place in a conventional manner as by glueing adhesing, welding etc.
The storage section 23 is preferably occupied only in part by the compartments 36 of the grid 31. See FIG. 3 for example. Disposed either beneath, or above the grid 31 is the cooling zone 40 to be described subsequently.
In FIGS. 5 it is seen that the grid members 35 may be tilted downwardly rearwardly which angularity for reasons to be set forth is deemed preferable to a fully horizontal member 35. By tilting the horizontal members 10 degrees to 45 degrees rearwardly and downwardly the lipsticks 50 will when inserted into a compartment 36, slide rearwardly by gravity into the confines of the respective compartment.
Disposed beneath the grid 32 is the cooling zone 40. It is a storage zone whose temperature is controlled by thermostat 42 (FIG. 3) which is mounted either on door 43 or on a panel adjacent a cut out corner of door 43. Door 43 is hingedly attached by hinges 41 to bottom wall 23B. Access to the interior of cooling zone 40 is gained by opening door 43 by handle 45 at the center top thereof, and pulling downwardly. Zone 40 is in refrigerant communication with refrigeration section 12 through ducting and piping of a conventional nature. A lipstick, L, after use would be placed in the interior of this cooling zone 40 and cooled down to about 32/42F. at which time it is not as free flowing and smearable as if it were at ambient temperature.
Alternatively, cooling zone 40 need not be in refrigerant communication with refrigerant section 12. In such alternate version, thermostat 42 can be omitted. Instead of cooling the lipstick in the cooling zone, a separate refrigerated container may be employed to house the lipstick, L, to be cooled, said refrigerated container, itself being stored in the cooling zone 40. A typical refrigerated container for a lipstick which can be employed in this invention is the container disclosed and claimed in U.S. Pat. No. 4,393,975. Since such a container is known in the art a further description need not be set out. Suffice it to say that the portion of the specification specific to that device is set out in the aforementioned U.S. patent and is incorporated herein by reference. Of course, no reason is seen why the container of U.S. Pat. No. 4,393,975 cannot be used in conjunction with a refrigerated cooling zone 40 and such combination is also contemplated herein.
In FIGS. 5 and 7 we see that the cooling zone 40 is formed by and defined as the volume within the spaced top and bottom walls 49T and 49B respectively and the spaced upper and lower rear wall segments 50T and B. The side walls of the cooling zone being the segments of the side walls 23S that fall within the spacing between top and bottom walls 49T and B. Thus refrigerated air can blow into the compartment through space 53 between rear wall segments 50T and 50B.
In order to provide for separate temperature control of the cooling zone, space 53 will have to be closed off by wall 53A to form a segregated compartment. To achieve separate temperature control for the storage section a second thermostat (not seen) will be needed. The hookup of such, and the other necessary components are deemed conventional. If not employed, the one thermostat 42 will control the temperature of the entire storage section.
In FIG. 7, which is a view similar to FIG. 5, but with a different grid pattern 132. Here the lipsticks (L) are intended to be stood up vertically. Thus the grid members 133 and 135 are sized and spaced to accommodate standing lipsticks. For this reason the grid 132 only includes 3 spaced horizontal members as opposed to the 4 of the FIG. 5 embodiment where the lipstick (L) lie down.
Within the refrigerator unit 12 are provided the various elements shown in FIG. 10. Thus there is provided a compressor 56 located in the refrigerator compartment 12, which compartment has a top wall 12T, two side walls 12S, a spaced bottom wall 12B and a rear wall 12R, and a front wall 12F. A condenser cooling air inlet 57 and a warm air exit 58, a fan 59, a condenser 61 and an evaporating unit 62 through which the cooling air is passed through apertures 63 into the storage compartment 23, and to the cooling zone 40 in the FIG. 5 embodiment, and tubes 63T for delivery of cool air in the FIG. 7 embodiment. A return 64 having an opening 64 for passage of warm air back to the refrigeration zone is also shown.
In FIG. 7 the tubes 63T pass through the rear wall 134 of the grid 132 whereas in the FIG. 5 embodiment the apertures 63 communicate with and through main rear wall 23R.
Since the blowup of FIG. 10 represents both the versions shown in FIGS. 5 and 7 neither the apertures 63 or tubes 63T are shown in the view, though they are present in the respective FIG. 5 and FIG. 7 embodiments.
Since the refrigeration section 12 is electrically operated, there is shown a cord 54 with a plug 55, in FIG. 3, which cord is attached and electronically converted to various electrical components described with respect to FIG. 10. The operation of a refrigeration section is deemed conventional and further details are beyond the scope of this patent application.
It is seen that I have provided an apparatus to cool lipsticks immediately after usage and for their continuous storage between usages. The device can be made of any suitable combination of materials, such as wood, metal and plastic as may be desired.
While the discussions above all pertain to a lipstick storage apparatus that is generally rectangular in configuration, reference to FIGS. 11 and 12 show but two of the other numerous configurations that are possible for the instant apparatus.
The variant of FIG. 11 features a heart shaped refrigerator section 333, while the embodiment of FIG. 12 is the circular and fancifully decorated refrigerator section 223. Mechanically these are similar to the front embodiment described herein with the refrigeration section exterior to the storage section, rather than being built in.
It is also to be seen that any and all of the compartments of these may include or exclude the face plate previously discussed.
Embodiment 400 shown in FIG. 13 is in many ways similar to embodiment 10 shown in FIG. 3. The area of differentiation is in the storage compartment 423.
In the discussion of this embodiment, numbers in the 400 series that have their last two digits similar to parts previously discussed which bear the same two digit identifier, are like parts. If any slight deviations exist they will be pointed out.
Thus embodiment 400 includes a base 414, on which is mounted a stand post 415. Secured to the stand post 415 is storage compartment 423. The first door 421 is similar to door 21 and it is hinged in like fashion. While shown as a left hand opening door, obviously the unit could be right hand opening as well. This is of course true for all of the other embodiments as well.
The interior 421l of the door 421 is configured in like manner as the door shown in FIG. 3. For ease of understanding the holders which would be 431 are not shown. Elements 427, 428, 429 are 430 are the same as their two digit counter parts. Thus added discussion is not needed.
The interior of storage section 423 is of a simpler design. It features a cooling zone at the bottom, 440 that is non-compartmented on its interior. The zone 440 has a downwardly pivoting door 443 held by hinges 441. The thermostat 442 is conveniently disposed in the lower right corner of door 443. Handle 445 mounted conventionally permits access to the interior of the cooling zone, for the storage of nail polish or lipstick.
Storage section 423 instead of a grid portion 32 it has an upper storage zone 469. This upper storage zone is trifurcated into three compartments, 470, 470' and 470". The first two compartments 470 and 470' constitute the left larger and the right smaller compartments with the doored compartment 470" therebetween.
Each of the two outer compartments 470 and 470' includes a pair of vertically spaced shelf unit 471 and 471' respectively. Each shelf unit has a horizontal shelf member 472, 472' and a front upstanding guard rail 473, 473'. Optionally, individual retainers or holders may be provided for the storage of individual lipstick tubes.
Disposed between the two compartments 470 and 470' is a third compartment 470". This compartment has a pair of spaced vertical side walls 476 which also serve as the interior walls of the two compartments 470 and 470' respectively. Mounted on each of the two side walls 476 within compartment 470" are a plurality of vertically spaced shelf ledges, of any conventional style, similar to those used in medicine cabinets for holding shelves therein. In FIG. 13, the shelf is depicted as being on a lower elevation than are the upper shelves of compartments 470 and 470". Such is not a limitation however. A door 478 is suitably hinged on hinges 480 and having a door handle 479 is employed to close off and gain access to the middle compartment 470".
Nail polish, lipsticks and other items may be stored in this middle compartment which is cooled by the refrigeration mechanism mounted on the rear of the cabinet 411 in a refrigeration portion 412, not seen but of the nature of the refrigeration portion 12 previously discussed.
In this embodiment 400 the cabinet 411 is in refrigeration communication to the refrigeration mechanism such that the entire interior, including the three compartments 470, 470' and 470" as well as the cooling zone 440 are refrigerated. Obviously the door area will be cooled as well.
As to the specifics of the refrigeration portion, the externally mounted version as shown in elevation in FIG. 2 is preferred over the internal configuration as shown in FIG. 6.
Also while not shown, the embodiment 400 would also have an external door handle 425, not seen that is conventional and similar to handle 25 per FIG. 1.
It is seen that this version of my invention, while not possessing as much storage space as the embodiments, wherein the lipsticks are stored horizontally, does indeed permit one to keep more than enough cooled lipsticks readily available. Also it permits the extra cooling in the cooling zone, which is optionally less insulated such that extra cooling can take place than in the balance of the interior of cabinet 411.
While only one thermostat has been disclosed, it is readily within the skill of the art to provide the cooling zone with a separate temperature control as may be desired.
Since certain changes may be made in the above apparatus without departing from the scope of the invention herein involved, it is intended that all matter contained in the above description and shown in the accompanying drawings shall be interpreted as illustrative and not in a limiting sense.

But the big question: Does it really matter? Joe Fortenbaugh
It hasn't been a great week for the top wide receivers of the 2013 draft class. On Tuesday, a report surfaced from ESPN's Adam Schefter that California wideout Keenan Allen was red-flagged for a drug test at February's Combine in Indianapolis. On Thursday, West Virginia's Tavon Austin and Tennessee's Cordarrelle Patterson made news for bombing the Wonderlic intelligence test, a 50-question multiple-choice exam administered every year at the Combine.
US PRESSWIREWe highly doubt a poor performance on the Wonderlic will hurt Tavon Austin's draft stock.
Per Bob McGinn of the Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel, the 6-3, 205-pound Patterson scored an 11 out of a possible 50 points, while Austin registered a seven.
Conspiracy theories have already begun popping up around the internet alleging that one or more wide receiver-hungry teams could be leaking this information in an attempt to drive down the stock prices of Allen, Patterson and Austin. Maybe that's true, maybe it isn't.
But talent will almost always prevail in the face of character concerns. The NFL isn't made up of clergymen and scientists. It's made up of football players. And while it wouldn't hurt a player's cause to post a 40 out of 50 on the Wonderlic, scoring as low as a seven won't create any serious consequences for a player who has proven he can do just that: Play.

November 29, 2014
NASHVILLE, Tenn. WVLT) -- A 13th person has died in Tennessee in the deadly outbreak of fungal meningitis that has sickened more than 400 people around the country.
Tennessee Department of Health spokesman Woody McMillin confirmed the new death in Tennessee in an email on Monday. He also said the number of people sickened in this state has risen by one to 79.
The patients were infected when they received injections of a contaminated steroid manufactured by a Massachusetts pharmacy.
Meningitis is a swelling of the lining of the spinal cord and brain, and nearly all of those sickened received the injections for back pain.
Since the outbreak was discovered, the operations of the New England Compounding Center have been suspended and all its medicine recalled.
Fungal meningitis is not contagious.

The County Galway/County Clare region
County Clare is one of Ireland's most dramatic and beautiful western counties. From stunning coastal scenery to rolling hills. There's plenty to see and do in Clare and probably the best starting point is a visit to the award winning Clare heritage museum. It tells the story of how Clare has developed over time and the hardships it has been through.
Noted for its traditional music sessions. On the rugged Clare coastline, forty minutes from Ennis town, an hour from Shannon airport.
You can take advantage of the fantastic view of the countryside across to the sea and the Aran Islands. The coast road brings you to the majestic Cliffs of Moher and the village of Liscannor where boats depart for the Aran Islands. In the other direction are the spa town of Lisdoonvarna noted for its bachelor festival in September, the beautiful sand dune beach at Fanore and the heart of the Burren National Park, on to Galway city. This is a wonderful base from which to visit the counties of Limerick, Galway and Clare.

The best reason to work at Mcgladrey is to get the public accounting experience on your resume. The client-work is a good mix of public clients and small clients so you don't have to spend a whole year only auditing cash.Cons
The California region lacks strong management that can connect with its employees. Mcgladrey markets itself as a place where you can have work-life balance (since it's not a Big 4 firm) but this isn't actually true. You work just as many hours as your friends at Big 4 firms, so you might as well have the Big 4 name on your resume (even though Mcgladrey is top 5 nobody recognizes the name).Advice to ManagementAdvice

Another devotee warrior in Iraq
Hare Krsna Bhakta Anthony!
it was wonderful to hear your exchanges with devotees! how long will you be in Iraq? I am in the process of going to Ft. Carson Colorado, my duty station. I do not have my orders yet for deployement but rumor has it I should be in Iraq by August. almost all of my AIT company, several hundred of us, will be arriving between june-august. (army medics)
I have a very strong desire to be assigned to the 10th C*S*H. If Krsna desires and has some service for me there. Where ever I go, surely Krsna will arrange some service. I hope that i can have both yours and Partha Sarthi's association.
I went on leave today, destination: the Sri Sri Radha Govinda Mandir in Brooklyn NY.
I have to back-track to Ohio to get my harmonium and mrdanga out of storage. My Srimad Bhagavatams, everything Krsna conscious. What will be needed to have nice

Hare Krishna!
thank you all for such nice comments. yes, I was in NC for about a year. I wrote a letter to Krishna Priya dasi at the temple about Janmastami at Ft. Jackson, SC. Tell all the devotees there I miss them. I also miss all the devotees in New York and Alachua.
Antony, I was telling Partha Sarthi dasa I would like to organize some type of Krishna Concious Military Congregation. I have heard of several second generation devotees in the Marines and Army. It will take some time and thought, maybe an internet site since we are all stationed in different places at different times.
I recieved a phone call the other night from a book distributor who was interested in preaching to soldiers. He is welcome to come to Ft. Sam Houston,TX my next base. If any book distributors are in the neighborhood please contact me. BBT will always have the most recent address and way to reach me.
At the temple sunday feast this evening, (I am on Holiday in Columbus Ohio at this moment) a book distributor reported a wonderful story to me. Today, Kalinidisundari mataji was distributing books and stopped a soldier. Mataji was so happy and estatic that this soldier already had a Bhagavad Gita and he told her all about Krsna and Arjuna. He appreciated Bhagavad Gita.

Dear Ben Bernanke
First off, kudos on lowering the federal funds rate target from 3 percent to 2¼ percent. That was some positively badass monetary-policy decision-making, dude. We know some people are giving you a hard time for not dropping it a full percentage point, but don't listen to those maniacs. If we were in your shoesand had any idea what the federal funds rate target actually waswe would have done the same thing. Probably. read more

Alan Greenspan Takes a Bath
For the past eighteen years, the Oz-like Alan Greenspan has used his position as chairman of the Federal Reserve to push, behind the scenes, for strict budgetary discipline. Now, in his final year in office, he has watched the Bush administration destroy the budget surplus and drive the deficit to record highs. So the mysterious chairman must decide: Will he continue to fight for his economic principles, even if it means fighting his own party? read more

A Ron Paul Ad I'd Like to See
Graphics and Voice Over Begins Ad: Think Ron Paul is good for America? Just listen to him over the years:
Graphics/VO: 1988 "...America shouldn't involve itself in the business of other nations ..." "We must get rid of Central Banking ..."
Graphics/VO: 1990 "... we need to let other nations deal with their own problems." "....sound money....'no' to the Fed."
G/VO: 1992: "the more we meddle in other countries' affairs, the more we put at risk the lives of young Americans..." " ..... gold..."
G/VO: 1998: well, you get the picture.
I'd love to see an ad like that, sarcastically pretending that he flip-flops while actually emphasizing his consistency over the decades.

High heels for preteens on the rise
The San Francisco Bay Area is pretty fashion forward, so it's not unusual to see girls that young wearing heels. Fein says they've helped her daughter learn to walk like a lady. The phenomenon falls in line with other trends in clothing, books, music and movies once reserved for older audiences trickling down the age ladder.
The Associated Press
DALLAS — A pair of sparkly, peekaboo shoes with heels 2 inches high are favorites of 6-year-old Helena Bell ever since she got them for a wedding.
"She's worn them to the point where the jewels have fallen off," says Helena's mother, Dana Bell of Woodland Hills, Calif. "It's not my preference, but I've stopped fighting it."
The heels aren't allowed at school, but the first-grader slips on her white treasures first thing when she gets home and wears them to church every Sunday. "I think if it's within reason, it's OK," her mom says.
As images of 3 ½-year-old Suri Cruise out and about in blingy heels recently hit magazines and the Internet, reactions to the grown-up look for children have ranged from cries of inappropriate to defense of a little girl's right to be girlie. Suri's mom, actress Katie Holmes, told Access Hollywood she considers the kitten heels supportive because they were made specifically for kids learning ballroom dancing.
Samantha Fein of San Jose, Calif., says her 6-year-old daughter has attracted some double-edged remarks — "My, look at your big-girl shoes" — when she wears her knee-high boots with a 2-inch chunky heel or her brown wedges with only slightly less height. Fein notes that her child wears sneakers 90 percent of the time and heels on special occasions.
"It's not like I'm sending her to the park in them," she says. "I think there's a time and a place for everything."
The San Francisco Bay Area is pretty fashion forward, so it's not unusual to see girls that young wearing heels. Fein says they've helped her daughter learn to walk like a lady.
The phenomenon falls in line with other trends in clothing, books, music and movies once reserved for older audiences trickling down the age ladder.
As Christina Vercelletto, senior editor of Parenting magazine, has been putting together the spring fashion edition, she's noticed shoes for girls as young as 5 and 6 sporting heels as high as an inch.
"I am seeing these heeled shoes, shoes that would be considered a little too grown-up typically for a girl that age," she says. "I think it's definitely a trend for 5- or 6-year-olds."
In years past, Vercelletto says, heels usually stopped at sizes for 8- or 9-year-olds. She unsuccessfully tried to nab a pair of stacked-heel boots that arrived in a bag of hand-me-downs for her own 6-year-old but wasn't quick enough. Now, Vercelletto tries to keep them out of sight in the back of a closet.
"I do feel that it's rushing it a little to put a girl 3 years old in shoes like that," said Vercelletto, among those who fear the physical perils.
Unlike other trends, heels pose physical risks that include a tightening of the heel cord and changes in the growth plate.
Matthew Dairman, a Suffolk, Va., foot and ankle surgeon and a spokesman for the American College of Foot and Ankle Surgeons, urges parents to limit wear to once or twice a week for no more than four hours at a stretch — if at all. Another important factor, he says, is difficulty in keeping kids from running, which could make those in heels more susceptible to ankle sprains or broken bones.
"You put a kid in a heel and someone touches them and says tag, they're it — they're off," Dairman says.
Michael Penrod, a sales representative for children's footwear with a showroom at Dallas Market Center, a wholesale merchandise marketplace, says adult styles began surfacing in children's footwear a decade ago. While manufacturers do offer heels in sizes small enough to possibly fit a 3-year-old, stores are more likely to carry sizes meant from age 5 and up.
Heels for young girls get mixed reactions from buyers, with more interest from the coasts and bigger department stores.
"In the South, there's still a very traditional store owner that prefers the younger-looking silhouettes," he says.
Jennifer Thomas, one of the owners of two Chicago-area children's shoe boutiques called Piggy Toes, says she doesn't carry heels for young girls.
"I just don't think they're age appropriate," says Thomas, who has a 10-year-old daughter she doesn't want to see in them. "As far as the customers, girls for sure love them. Mom usually doesn't want them."
Dr. James W. Brodsky, a Dallas orthopedic surgeon and past president of the American Orthopaedic Foot & Ankle Society, says healthy shoes for kids are similar to healthy shoes for adults — not too high a heel, plenty of width in the toe box, soft natural materials to conform to the shape of the foot and good support.
Dairman does see some value in girls around 12 or so learning to wear heels, when their bones have developed. And while he doesn't think younger girls wearing heels is that widespread, "as kids seem to be aging quicker, it's something that should be addressed."
Lisa Spiegel, a counselor and director of Soho Parenting, a New York City parenting resource center, says worry about kids growing up too fast is often on the minds of parents today. She says she hasn't noticed a prevalence of young girls wearing heels but does know parents contending with young girls wanting to wear makeup or dress in too-skimpy clothes.
"We really, really try to help families hold onto their better instincts that kids should be children and not little adults," she says.
