^ Interesting. I didn't even think to look at it that way. You're right though.
Trouble is, there are more tanks required for 5 mans than for raids. So a good portion of tanks won't see a raid because there isn't that much demand.
Yet tank itemization from 5mans is frankly apalling. The shield drop/craftable is 20-30 ilvls behind at the moment. There is a new one in the new non-hero 5man. I do see an issue here when all the raid geared DPS find that their 5man tanks can't hold aggro against them.
So yes, this thing is very short-sighted. A stats stick for hunters is there but no tanking one hander? No tanking shield in the heroic version of 3 5mans? How is that supposed to be good? I can forsee that I will run into serious threat problems. Yet there drop two tanking one handers from the 5man heroics. They will get disenchanted. A lot. Moving stuff like this into the questline would also have helped to unclutter the loot tables.
I have two tanking specs. Now what am I supposed to do with a twohander? It's not like I can devastate or shield slam with that.

Quests - World of Warcraft
Lots of raid quests where not every class/spec will find something useful.
Oh, and head of onyxia is not included there, should ask Feral tanks what they want as a reward there, or maybe any mail/plate caster? or Plate DPS?

So, going into this whole debacle, there were essentially five specs out of 30 left in the dark:
Mutilate Rogues
Prot Warriors / Paladins
Shadow Priests
Blizzard says, too bad, we aren't aiming to give everyone a reward. Wait, we should make a change. Here you go, Boomkin and Shadow Priests. So now you're left with two setups that do not have a reward. So if they're not going to aim to cater to everyone, why the change to cater to Boomkin and Shadow Priests?
Why are there so many 2her rewards? Why an Agi 2her designed only for hunters, and a 2h mace designed only for ferals / possibly DK tanks? Hunters could Main-Hand the 1h agi sword in a DW setup, and Druids / DKs could use a number of the other weapons.
The line "We don't intend to cater to everyone" applies when you are perhaps refering to covering 40% of class / spec combos. Maybe it can apply when you're covering 70% and leave it there. However, when you're already covering 80% of combos, and then make a change so that you're covering ~90%, it becomes harder to justify.

There are also about what, 4-5 specs that aren't catered to do PvE DPS?

By the way, just thought I'd say as a DK who likes to DW tank that you can add another spec to the list of tanks missing out on an ideal weapon. Yeah, the 1hander dps sword could work for a main hand threat stick (though without any expertise it's not even that attractive), but I'm finding attaining a good tank-sword difficult (yay rng!) and was really looking forward to a "guaranteed" one from this quest line.
You'll see the turkey carver and the craftable/CoT shield. A lot. Coupled with iLVL 226/332 gear obtained by badges. Since these tanks only get 332 gear by doing daily heroics and the odd Archavon/Onyxia PUG it is time to break out an extra portion of respect because these people worked really hard for their gear. On a daily basis.
There are only oh so many tanks required in raids. You need quite a bit more for 5mans. Many aspiring tanks simply gave up because they had no chance of getting a tanking raidslot. Many are twinks. If you keep your equipment up to scratch with 2 pieces T8 and 2 pieces T9 on a twink without any raiding then you show real commitment.
10mans are NOT easily attainable. My warrior for instance neither has the gear nor the experience to raid DPS hoping to pick up whatever tanking leftovers. I wouldn't have the time to find a second raid since my main commitment is my priest. Quel'delar and a nice tanking shield in the 5man heroics would have been a godsend. Now I don't know if I'll pull the threat values overgeared DPS does.
Just remember this when you are one tank shy of a 5man heroics run.

Of course, ICC won't be the same deal but marrowgar is one of the daily raid quests so there will be millions of people forming 10 man pugs just to kill him anyway. Secondly, an axe drops in the new 5 man too.
Oh, and generating good threat has very little to do with having a high dps weapon.
Xíanth <Valkyria>
Maybe some of you are having trouble with the important shades of gray here, but there's a huge difference between having a quest (and a raid quest at that) that rewards 30% of PVE specs (leaving the majority of players waiting for the next one) or one that rewards 90% of the specs, including ones that are in direct competition for raid slots.
It's this shifting of the rewards to be almost all inclusive but not quite that creates the problems. If the rewards really were just for DPS specs (very easy to do) or just for healers, or just for tanks, or just for frost mages, or whatever, it would be fine. No one would be complaining.
If the developers had even come out with a reasonable answer as to why they designed it this way perhaps the outrage would have been limited to people who just want their leet lootz. But they didn't, they sat there with a straight face and said it was for DPS (when it could have been but instead they provided generalized weapons that benefit healers and half the tanks), they said there were plenty of "other options" when there is no other way to get equivalent weapons for anyone but hardcore 25 man raiders prior to ICC, and they said they didn't feel it necessary to cover all specs while hurriedly altering one of the caster weapons to include more specs (and even benefitting some healers more).
It was a poor decision from the get-go to decide to cover so may PVE specs while excluding so few, and negative reactions to the bad quest rewards design was made worse by providing disingenuous responses that either miss the point entirely or are blatantly false (and sometimes contradict their own actions). The people getting shafted on this have every right to be upset, and should continue to voice their objections to either fix this before it goes live, or make it obvious that this will not be a design that is tolerated in future epic quest lines.

If you are pressing the wrong buttons, or don't know how to stack your stats for high agro situations, then I agree that improving your gameplay yields a much larger benefit than a weapon upgrade. Oh, BTW this is equally true for DPS. Knowing your rotation and how to gear will benefit you far more than upgrading your weapon.Oh, and generating good threat has very little to do with having a high dps weapon.
And if you ARE already gearing and using the appropriate threat rotation/priority then whether you like it or not upgrading your weapon is the most significant way to improve your threat, as simply adding a few extra points of strength on a new chest is not going to have nearly the benefit of getting a higher DPS range on your new weapon.
What I don't understand is why people are opposed to Blizzard dropping a tanking mace or sword into the quest rewards. It's not as though they would have to get rid of one of the existing rewards to do so. The only thing adding a tank reward would do is give more tanks good gear, which is never a bad thing in my opinion.
To be fair, I haven't seen anyone say that they are opposed to a tanking weapon, just that it's not necessary. Frankly, if you have been running 5 and 10 man content (especially in PuGs), tank weapons have always been hard to come by. If you are still raiding heroics or old ten mans (time issues or leveling an alt) then the current weapons should be fine for that.What I don't understand is why people are opposed to Blizzard dropping a tanking mace or sword into the quest rewards.
I agree that it would have been easy to add a tank weapon and I understand TomHuxley's point about 30% vs. 90%. In other words, I strongly sympathize with the Want argument, but haven't yet seen a good Need argument.

That said, gear is the carrot on the other side of the "wiping sucks" stick to succeed, and is part of what is "fun" for many (I would assume most) players. Rewards are a necessary part of this fun, so it still seems like poor design that needs to be changed. Furthermore, the high degree of specs that can be rewarded makes this feel exclusionary...that probably isn't the intent, but it's pretty much unavoidable when 90%+ of the specs out there can get rewarded. And from a gameplay/design point of view, if the developers don't realize this than they "need" to be informed of it, as it's going to hamper future attempts and will generally lead to better quest designs in the future.
Actually, your comment is silly . I clearly stated that I strongly sympathize with wanting to add a tank weapon to the quest line (my alt warrior tank still has Peacekeeper Blade), nowhere did I state that dps "needed" another weapon and you are engaging in a bit of hyperbole with your remark about removing all quest rewards.That's just silly... By that logic we should be yelling at Blizzard to get rid of all the quest rewards because no one "needs" them. I would argue that tanks "need" more weapon upgrade options while dps do not "need" still more weapon options.
I think my disconnect on this whole discussion is that I don't see anything wrong with saying "I would like "X" because it would be cool" and so I don't see why people feel that they have to turn it into some dire need in order for it to be a legitimate request.
@ TomHuxley - I love getting new loot, I think that Pally/Warrior weapons have been hard to come by for the whole expansion and I think it's vital that we give feedback to the devs. My point is that I think we have a better chance of getting what we want if we are honest about why we want it and friendly when we give feedback. It will help to separate us from the angry hordes on the wow forums

I do agree that adding in a tanking weapon (preferably Axe, for my Orc Warrior :P) could be ... useful for lack of better description, but it is neither really needed, nor useless. Yay for shades of grey!!
My previous statement was only to show that they HAVE done questlines similar to this where not every class/spec received something useful, as opposed to what TomHuxley seemed to imply in the part I quoted.
In the end, we can live without, although it would've been a nice jest towards tanks, especially since people making statements like "people wouldn't notice it if you swapped to a DPS weapon" just make me wonna grab that DPS weapon and do nasty things with it involving that persons face. Oh, and as a Healer I WILL notice if you swap to your Berserking enchanted 0 Stamina weapon, just so you know :P

Q&A with 'To The Arctic' Filmmakers
Oceana had a chance to talk to Greg and Shaun MacGillivray, the producers of To the Arctic, an IMAX 3D film that explores the changing landscape of the Arctic and the animals that call it home. Here's what they had to say about survivng the cold and falling in love with a family of polar bears.
Q: Without revealing any spoilers, what is To the Arctic going to show us that we've never seen before?
To The Arctic is the first 3D IMAX film ever shot in the Arctic, and because of the immersive, experiential quality of 3D IMAX footage shown on screens 80 feet tall, audiences will feel like they have been transported to this incredibly wild and pristine place without even having to put a parka on. We were extremely lucky while shooting in Norway to find a mother polar bear and her two cubs willing to let us follow and film them at close range for five days straight, which is unprecedented. Polar bears are usually skittish around humans and will avoid them. But this mother was completely comfortable with us and even seemed to like having us nearby. The result is that we were able to capture extremely rare, close-up footage showing the daily lives of a polar bear family in a changing Arctic, and the incredible lengths to which this mother went to protect and nurture her cubs. We saw her fend off four different attacks by hungry male polar bears in five days, and we have it all on film.
Q: What were some of the challenges filming in Arctic conditions?
In the Arctic we were primarily filming wildlife, which is hard enough in normal conditions. But the extreme cold and wind and remoteness of our locations made it even more difficult than usual. When you're filming wildlife, there is a lot of waiting and searching for the animals, and then you want to try to capture a variety of animal behaviors, so you have to give yourself lots of time. We were in the field much longer for To The Arctic than for any of our other films—about 8 months over four years—and we were never really comfortable. On one trip, during our three-week stay aboard an icebreaker in Norway, the showers weren't working, so we didn't bathe for 21 days straight! For the underwater crew filming under the ice cap, the conditions were even more challenging. They were filming in water that was 29 degrees Fahrenheit, literally "liquid ice." Only the salt content in the water kept it from freezing. It was so cold that their longest dive was only 45 minutes. Any longer and their hands would have become completely frozen.
Q: How different was diving in the Arctic compared to California?
Well, for one thing, we were filming polar bears underwater, which you don't find too often in California. To get the shots, we relied on Bob Cranston, a brave underwater cinematographer who has photographed alligators, great white sharks, venomous snakes, and now, the fiercest predator of all--polar bears. They are eating machines, so we sent in Bob. He invented a way to film them by diving down below them, then waiting for the bear's natural curiosity to cause them to investigate our cameras. If the bears got too close for comfort, Bob would sink down out of range. Polar bears don't like to dive too deep—the deepest we saw them dive was about 20 feet—so as long as Bob picked spots where the water was deeper than that, he felt relatively safe.

There have been more than 400 bank closures since 2008 and most of them were closed because of failure to adequately manage credit risk. How a bank selects and manages its credit risk is critically important to its performance over time, and capital depletion through loan losses has been the primary cause of most institution failures. Setting proper risk tolerances is the first step in effectively managing credit risk.
Setting Risk Tolerances
Good credit risk management starts with setting and communicating reasonable credit risk tolerance levels. This is the board of directors responsibility and cannot be delegated.
Banks that had the most problems during the past four years failed to adequately establish risk tolerances related to industry risk. Basically, the boards of directors failed to establish reasonable limits on industry concentrations to guide senior management. For example, banks that did well during the past four years had limited construction/land development loans to less than 5 percent of capital. The banks that failed had much higher limits or failed to properly monitor their concentrations at all.
The board of directors should be clear in what it wants the portfolio to look like. Here is good place to start:
Determine the percentage of commercial, residential and consumer loans you would like in your entire portfolio.
Determine what you want each of the above portfolios to look like.
For your commercial portfolio, set the percentage of commercial mortgages, commercial and industrial loans, and construction loans; the level of loans in each industry (retail, manufacturing, service); level of owner vs. non-owner occupied for your CREMs; and by geographic location.
Determine what you want your residential portfolio to look like: residential mortgages vs. home equity loans; home equity lines of credit vs. home equity amortizing loans; and limits by geographic location.
How much consumer secured vs. unsecured do you want in the consumer portfolio?
Set goals by both percentage of total loans, percentage of each portfolio and, most importantly, percentage to capital. Drill down as much as you need to give the management team as much guidance as possible in developing a portfolio ideal.
Typically, a portfolio that is comprised of 60 percent commercial loans, 30 percent residential and 10 percent consumer is much riskier than 40 percent commercial, 55 percent residential, and 5 percent consumer. Also, a commercial portfolio comprised of 65 percent CREMs and 35 percent C&I loans is normally less risky than 30 percent CREMs and 70 percent C&I due to secondary protection provided by collateral. It is perfectly fine to take more risk; just make sure the institutions has the capital to do it.
In addition, have your risk tolerances reviewed by an experienced third party. They can bring that outside perspective that you will need. If you are experiencing credit problems, look to see if your loan review function has even assessed your risk tolerance levels. If it did not, include it into your scope for the next loan review.
Lastly, have management provide reports that track portfolio composition on a monthly basis, to include the performance of each of the above portfolios (i.e., weighted average risk ratings, percent of loans past due, percent non-accrual and losses). This way the board of directors will have enough information to direct management to stop booking loans in portfolio segments that are starting to show signs of deterioration.
Loan Review Function
Banks need to take a hard look at their loan review functions. Many banks rely on bank examinations to give them comfort with their credit risk management functions. This can put you into a false sense of security. Bank examiners are not auditors and most examiners have not made loans, managed loan portfolios or had to deal with a workout situation. It is not their job to do loan review at your bank. More than likely, they will rely on the work conducted by your loan review function to make conclusions about asset quality.
Many banks choose to have an in-house loan review function versus outsourcing the review. For most small to mid-size institutions ($50 million to $2.5 billion in assets), an in-house loan review function is neither cost effective nor sufficient to help manage credit risk. An in-house loan review function does not have the ability to review in detail what is transpiring at other institutions; it is essentially operating in a vacuum.
This can lead to not only missing early warning signs but also the function is unable to help improve credit risk management practices because it has no reference point. Plus, an outsourced loan review typically costs much less than what it would cost to support a full-time employee.
Look at the quality of your loan review function. What are its qualifications? Are you its only client? How is it risk rating loans? Does it have a methodology or is it mostly its opinion? Is it easy to follow how the risk rating was determined? Regardless of how the risk rating was determined, the methodology should be transparent and consistent and built on sound lending fundamentals. Properly risk rating loans is an essential step in managing credit risk, so take the time to make sure you understand how the risk ratings are being developed.
Risk-Rating Model
Risk-rating loans is not a simple process. If it was, we would not have had the failures we did. To properly risk rate a loan, you have to consider many variables. For example, although the debt service coverage ratio may be less than 1.00, that does not necessarily mean the credit deserves a criticized (special mention) or classified (substandard, doubtful or loss) risk rating. Suppose the borrower has excellent liquidity and collateral protection is good. What would be the risk rating now? What if the borrower is in an industry that has been significantly impacted by current economic conditions? How would that impact the risk rating?
A risk rating is dependent on many variables and how these variables interplay with each other. A risk-rating model should be mainly objective but still leave room for reviewer judgment. Here is one model for risk-rating loans that takes into consideration all these variables and ensures your risk-rating process is transparent and consistent.
This model is based on the proven fundamentals of lending, notably the five Cs of lending. Each of the following variables is reviewed for each borrower: 1) capacity (cash flow) to repay the loan; 2) collateral protection; 3) capital and other financial condition of the borrower; 4) character of the borrower and their willingness to repay the loan; and 5) conditions in the marketplace that may impact the borrower.
In addition, credit administration should be assessed to determine if the loan was structured properly for its intended purpose and if it is being properly monitored on an ongoing basis. Each variable is weighted based its importance to the risk rating.
For example, the capacity variable is weighted higher than collateral; the collateral variable is weighted higher than conditions. Criteria are developed for what information will be reviewed in each variable.
Each variable is rated as excellent, satisfactory or poor. A numeric rating system has been developed in order for the model to calculate the risk rating score. Again, criteria should be developed for the assignment of each score to ensure consistency in the process. Comments are used to fully support each variable rating.
Finally, the overall rating is compared to a risk-rating range that correlates to the banks risk rating system. This is the most difficult step of all and requires significant testing and experience to accomplish. Once done, however, this methodology will ensure consistency and transparency in your risk-rating process.
Managing credit risk begins with setting good risk tolerance levels. Loan review is a key function that helps measure compliance with these risk tolerance levels and ensures the portfolio is properly risk rated. Without a good loan review function, the bank could head down a wrong path. Ensure the loan review function receives appropriate attention and take the time to explore and invest in a risk-rating system that makes sense for your bank.

McLaren took the covers off a "completely different" MP4-28 at their Technology Centre on Thursday.
After parading several past title winners out one by one, drivers Jenson Button and Sergio Perez then took the covers of the F1 car that McLaren are hoping will secure this year's crown.
As with last season the new car did not feature the stepped-nose of its rivals', rather it had a sleek slanted nose.
Similar in many other ways to its predecessor, Button says he is eager to get behind the wheel for the first time next Tuesday at Jerez.
"The winter has been long but enjoyable," said the Brit.
"But a Formula One driver wants to get back in a car and feel the speed again.
"It's been an exciting few weeks, building the car and finally seeing it as one late last night."
"It may look like last year's car, but under the skin it's completely different.
"That's why it's so exciting. They've changed enough to make a difference.
"You go into the season aiming to win the World Championship and thats's what we are doing."

Ukraine | Coal mining, football and other former Soviet spheres of influence
Within the textured, contested, sad depths of Ukrainian history, few political gestures go unexegeted in a Talmudic-like zeal for obscure associations and hidden meaning. Such occurred following prime minister Yulia Tymoshenko's Dec 23 visit to perennially troubled Zasyadko mine in eastern Donetsk, where 101 coal miners died in a Nov 18 explosion. Her comments stirred memories of past mining disasters and of the wheelchairs that regularly circled the Shakhtar Donetsk football ground (see also 26 Dec 04.) (Dec 28)

Body of VSU student recovered; search on for 2nd
POSTED: 4:40 AM Apr 23 2013
A body recovered from the Appomattox River is believed to be one of two Virginia State University students missing since Saturday.
Media reports say the body was located by divers Monday afternoon. It was taken to the medical examiner's office in Richmond for identification.
Authorities have been searching for the two since they entered the chilly river with a group near the campus in Petersburg. They were last seen near the Martin Luther King Bridge.
The university identified the students as freshmen Jauwan Holmes and Marvell Edmonson.

Welcome new WC students!
You are each about to embark upon an exciting and life changing experience. I remember entering WC as a first-year student, full of excitement, yet fearful about the unknown. Who would my new friends be? What would the professors be like? Would I pass my classes? Who will I eat with in the TOP? What will my roommate be like? How will I ever survive on my own? These questions faded quickly as I dove into my freshmen orientation program. I was assigned to a group full of other students who were asking the same questions. Little did I know, but others felt the same anticipation, yet anxiety I was feeling. Orientation proved to be just what the doctor ordered. I quickly began meeting people who would become my friends for life. I had a better understanding of what to expect in the classroom and actually began to feel like a REAL WC student.

Jenson Button believes this year's Formula One cars won't be much faster than the ones used in the GP2 series.
Under the new aerodynamic regulations, there is a large reduction in the amount of downforce the cars generate, which results in a loss of speed in most corners.
Although most drivers were impressed with the cars' torque during last week's test session in Jerez, the lap times were significantly slower than the tests at the same track last year.
The fastest time of the four-day test was set by McLaren rookie Kevin Magnussen, who was almost six seconds slower than the fastest times in Jerez last winter, but some drivers were another four seconds slower than the Dane.
Since the GP2 series wasn't forced into the same technical changes, Button believes the cars competing in the support series will run their F1 counterparts close.
"They will be a lot closer on certain circuits," Button noted.
"We'll be quicker, but not that much quicker.
"By the end of the year we might not be that far off (2013 pace), maybe a couple of seconds, which will be pretty good when we get a real handle on where we are."
Button noted that the new, harder Pirelli tyres might have a bearing on the relatively slow lap times at the Andalucian track.
"We think they are half a second slower," the 2009 World Champion added.
"The cars are also heavier, about one to 1.2 seconds through weight, so that's 1.6, 1.8 seconds already from those two changes."

There's no better time to see Yellowstone National Park than well…just about any time. Yellowstone Park is one of those destinations that offer an incredible adventure vacation any time of year. Each season in the park provides a unique experience for travelers.
As you might imagine, the busy time of the year is in the summer between June and September with the busiest months being July and August. Of course, our adventure vacation packages bring our guests to backcountry locations where crowds are few so that the magnificence of the landscapes and unique natural features can be fully appreciated.
An abundance of wildflowers greet visitors in June and July, and June, in particular, brings plenty of wildlife for travelers to see and snap photos. In September the fall flowers are in bloom and the elk come calling their mates. The winter brings an abundance of snow along with opportunities to snowshoe and glide through the trail on snowmobile.
Our Montana vacations offer summer travel times to Yellowstone to experience all the nature and wildlife that this season brings. We also have a five day wintertime journey in February for those ready to hit the scenic slopes with cross country skiing and snowshoeing, and of course, no winter adventure is complete without ice skates and snow mobiles too!
Call today or visit our website to learn more about visiting Montana and Yellowstone this year.

|It sure was nice of the Dominion to leave a fully functioning Runabout, fuelled and ready to go, floating just outside their prison facility, wasn't it?
When Kira orders Dax to take the Defiant to warp to catch the Runabout, Dax is incredulous that they would do this inside the solar system. Need we list the many, many, MANY times that ships have gone to warp inside solar systems with no ill effect? For instance, there is the occasion on which Kirk's stolen Bird of Prey went to warp within Earth's atmosphere towards the end of Star Trek IV.
|Great Moment :
|Worf refusing to conceed defeat to the Jem'Hadar pummelling him.
|Quote :
|"Everyone has their reasons. That's what's so terrifying; people can find a way to justify any action, no matter how evil." - Kira to Ziyal
Odo : "You'd shoot a man in the back?"
Garak : "Well, it's the safest way, isn't it?"
As Worf must fight Jem'Hadar supersoldiers one after the other, the Dominion fleet pour through the wormhole. Deep Space Nine stands ready for battle, but the Dominion have other ideas - and an alliance is formed which will rock the entire Alpha Quadrant.

On an entirely different note, I have a question. In my current gear I am using the Porcelain Crab trinket (Procs 1725 mastery for 20 sec). Now when this procs, it gives me 104% total avoidance. That's 1.6% over the combat table. Now that still leaves me under cap for a minute after the buff has worn off until it procs again. Now from dealing with this thread, would you still consider still reforging for avoidance due to the limited coverage? Or stay as is until something better drops from a raid?

In the European Union, enlargement, special arrangements for the expansion of the Schengen Area, and the gradual development of a stronger EU role in immigration have added new complexity to the policy landscape, leading to both new patterns of movement and new policies for governing immigration from outside of the European Union's 28 Member States. The research offered here focuses on migration policies, trends, and common challenges that affect Europe at a supranational level—from free movement to asylum policy and the management of EU borders.
Joanne van Selm and Eleni Tsokalis of MPI look at the challenges ahead as 10 new states join the European Union.
Countries in the European Union received fewer asylum applications in 2003, according to Veysel Oezcan of the Social Science Research Center Berlin.
Research by Marco Martiniello of the University of Liege and Andrea Rea of the Free University of Brussels casts light on how and why unauthorized immigrants arrive and stay in Belgium.

The real problem is that PERS is now affecting both ends of the membership. Tier II (1995)and OPSRP (2003) members are paying the price for the extravagance of Tier I retirees who are happy to receive as much as they can regardless of the effect.
Now there's a good place to start. If they are 'representing' a union, then that's their actual job. Some of those are not elected positions, so kick their entitled butt out the door. If they want to represent the union, then let the union care for them, not us.
The only avenue out of this mess is to boot the union out of policy-making positions and Demo pockets. Otherwise, nothing will change but the ever-increasing amount of PERS liability to taxpayers.
So, what is the end game? Our "leaders" don't have a clue, but it won't be good.
As a former Demo legislative candidate, you know the unions will do anything to protect their gold mine. It has never been about fairness, and with the players all on one side (PERS recipients), it's highly unlikely to expect real reform.
Everyone in the legislature can see the math problem, it's not like they don't know what has to be done, they just need to know voters have their back - or not - if they side with their contributors and not their constituents.
And if one could actually find a politician that represented the voters (and not special interests) -- you're looking a a one-termer, for sure.

The Excelsior Glass Company
Canadian, active 1878–1883
Commemorative goblet, 1880
14.2 x 7.5 cm
Collection of the Winnipeg Art Gallery
This goblet is easily traced to The Excelsior Glass Company, the sole producers of this specific goblet. Clearly marked "St. Jean Baptiste Quebec 24 Juin 1880" on the base, the vessel commemorates the feast day of St. Jean Baptiste. In 1880 the Saint Jean Baptiste Society, an association dedicated to the protection and promotion of francophone culture in Quebec, organized the first National Congress of French Canadians, a gathering of all North American francophone communities in Acadia, the former French colonial empire. The Saint Jean Baptiste Society took as its emblems the maple leaf and the beaver, iconic symbols of Canada that also decorate this goblet. The WAG's goblet design is perhaps the best known and most desired of Excelsior's production.

China Glaze® Tranzitions' revolutionary new nail lacquer reacts when a clear top coat is applied, changing the color from one shade to another for a stunning effect. Wear any of the six beautiful, color-shifting shades alone, or allow your creativity to run wild and create intricate nail designs by applying a top coat all over or strategically. Try different looks using nail art brushes, free-hand designs or nail guides. Because each shade changes color, you get two lacquers in one, creating an entirely new look with just one swipe.
There's nail art and then there's China Glaze® nail couture. Reverse French manicure, half moons, ombre, basket weave, dots or racing stripes: nail designs are intricate and multi-colored. China Glaze® introduces a new way to get multi-color, unique nail art with fewer bottles of polish with the new color-changing Tranzitions collection!
How It Works:
Step 1: Apply a base coatStep 2: Apply two coats of China Glaze Tranzitions shade of choice. Allow to completely dryStep 3: Lastly, apply one coat of clear top coat such as China Glaze Fast Forward and watch the color change right before your eyes.

Ford: Yes, Camaro will outsell Mustang this year
by Jeremy Korzeniewski (RSS feed) on Dec 23rd, 2010 at 3:30PM
It's true. For the first time since 1985, the Chevrolet Camaro will outsell the Ford Mustang in 2010. Besides giving the Bowtie Boys something to crow about, it also makes us genuinely intrigued to watch how 2011 unfolds, considering that Chevy plans to unleash its convertible and Z28 Camaro editions. Somewhat surprisingly, Ford doesn't seem too bothered. According to Ford sales analyst George Pipas, "If that was important, we wouldn't have taken a shift off at Flat Rock," which is where the plant that assembles the Mustang is located. That's a somewhat dubious statement, since building... Read More

Customer Reviews for Kitchen Privacy Opaque / Blackout Cellular / Honeycomb Window Shades
"Fit the Room Perfectly"
By B. Phillips from Missouri
Received the product just as promised, materials are wonderful, and does the job of insulating the room. Very large window so the cellular shade covering entire window very impactful. Love the ease of no cords; light blocking materials does the job too in this family/TV room.View this product
"Pleasantly surprised"
By 1st time buyer from New Jersey
I love my new blinds! They blackout light well and also reduce draft from my windows. When I am able, I will most likely purchase more for other windows in my home. The installation is not as easy as I expected, however, or perhaps my measuring wasn't as accurate as it should have been. Two of the blinds were a very tight fit into my window frame and the adhesives came off during installation. Fortunately, the inner mounting device is quite strong and is adequate form holding the frame in place.View this product

2 tablespoons

garlic, minced
1 1/2 tablespoons
1 (12 fluid ounce) can
evaporated skim milk
3/4 teaspoon
1/2 teaspoon
hot pepper sauce
2 cups
Sargento® Shredded Reduced Fat Mild Cheddar Cheese, divided
1 (16 ounce) package
frozen mixed vegetables (cauliflower, red bell peppers, broccoli), thawed
3 cups
bow tie or penne pasta, cooked and drained
I've never made mac and cheese before this, but we LOVE it. We don't use the garlic or hot pepper mainly because I have been out of it every time I make it, but it is one of our go to meals.
While this was a easy recipe, there was no flavor but that in the veggies. The noodles were tender, the veggies still had a crunch to it, I did follow to a T other then the I used mix veggies (green beans, peas, carrots & corn mix) But nothing is this recipe was a wow. Sorry, wasn't a crowd pleaser.
8 Ratings
This is simple enough to make and tastes good, although I would make a few changes. I agree with one of the other reviewers that it CAN be bland, but that of course is where your own creativity comes in. I mixed bread crumbs and parsley with the cheese topping, and next time I plan on adding black pepper and parsley to the cheese sauce. I will definitely make this again!
Great if you can be creative, like one user said...
I really liked this. It's a great base recipe. After making it the first time, I know just how I'll alter it next time. I'll use some parmesan and more hot pepper sauce for flavor (I used sriracha). Also, I think this would be amazing with fresh veggies.
A nice cheesy pasta. My kids liked it. You can customize veggies to your tastes. I topped with 1/2 c. cheddar and 1/2 c. parmesan cheese which added a bit more flavor.

Getting more bang for your buck
Good news:
If you don't use your coupons before they expire, they're still worth the money you paid for them for an extra three months.
GrabOne FaceValue gives you another three months after your coupons expire, making it even easier to enjoy businesses all over New Zealand.
How does it work?
- A coupon is valid up until and including the expiry date printed on the coupon.
- If you don't use it before the expiry date for whatever reason, the coupon retains the value you paid for it for an additional three months.
- This means you can turn up to the business up to three months after the coupon has expired and put the money you spent to buy that coupon towards the service or experience printed on your coupon.
For example, if you spend $50 on a $100 dining voucher but don't use it before the expiry date, you will still be entitled to $50 worth of food and beverage services at that business for an additional three months.
The same goes for coupons without monetary values assigned to them. For example, if you buy a bungy jump deal but don't use it before the expiry date, you can still put the money you spent on the coupon towards a bungy jump, for another three months. Remember, the FaceValue of your coupon can only be put toward the service or experience printed on your coupon.
A few things to note:
- FaceValue applies to all deals that display the FaceValue icon. If the icon is not on a deal, FaceValue does not apply.
- It's always best to use your coupon before the expiry date, so you get the most value for your money. And if you're a bit forgetful, we now automatically remind you if your coupons are about to expire.
- During the FaceValue period, your coupon can only be put towards the service stated on the coupon.
- If the offer is seasonal, like a seasonal menu or chimney sweep service, the FaceValue of your coupon can be put towards a similar offer at the merchant's discretion.
- FaceValue does not apply to product deals, travel and accommodation-related deals, or time-dependent event deals.
- The conditions on your coupon still apply during the FaceValue grace period.
