Exhibition Art Nouveau in the Treasuries of Subotica at the Municipal Museum in Subotica – until April 2014
The temporary exhibition of the Municipal Museum of Subotica titled "Art Nouveau in the Treasuries of Subotica" presents art nouveau painting, sculpture, applied art, handicraft and industrial products from public collections of Subotica on an exhibition area of 200 m2. It intends to call attention to Art Nouveau objects preserved in public collections of the town, as well as to highlight the fact that the art nouveau style should not be noticed only in the monuments of architectural heritage in Subotica.
The centenary of finishing the construction of the Art Nouveau Town Hall designed by Marcell Komor (1868–1944) and Dezső Jakab (1864–1932) served as the occasion for preparing the exhibition in September 2012. This exhibition covers all the phases of Art Nouveau: the early period (from 1890's to the turn of the 19th and 20th century), the mature (1900–1914) and the late (from 1914 to 1930's) phases of the style.
The objects are presented within several smaller subject matters: characteristic items of male and female spheres of middle-class homes (fashion, bringing up children, personal hygiene, collections – okimono from Japan, medals –, the culture of reading, listening to music, concept of spare time, relaxation, engagement in fine arts, photography), as well as several characteristic scenes and phenomena of public life (coffee-house, cinema, concerts, Japanese fashion, spa life in Palić etc.).
The exhibition is open to visitors until April 2014.

NEW YORK STATE -- The nation's strictest gun law is seeing its first legal challenge.
The State Rifle and Pistol Association has filed a notice of claim to overturn New York's sweeping gun control law, the NY SAFE Act. The claim takes issue with the gun control law and its updated ban on assault weapons, challenging the constitutionality of the measure.
In the notice of claim, the association says the law violates the U.S. Constitution's Commerce Clause, as well as violations of due process and unlawful seizure of property.
The law has new restrictions on the private sale of firearms and requires registration of previously unregistered assault weapons.
The claim also says that "the legislation is impermissibly vague and overboard." A claim like this is generally a precursor to a full-blown lawsuit.

Damnoen Saduak Floating Market
Category : Pieţe/ Pieţe plutitoare
Attraction Details :
In the past, daily commerce in Thailand was conducted mostly along rivers and canals (or khlongs in Thai). Bangkok's water network was busy and served as the principal means of communication causing Bangkok to be called as the "Venice of the East" by early European visitors. Out from Bangkok, there is a floating market that becomes one of the Thailand's most famous attractions, Damnoen Saduak Floating Market. Every morning, boat venders will cramp in Khlong Damnoen Saduak to sell product from their plantations that varies from fruits to vegetables. Now the product is more varieties as there are many visitors visit here every day. Check out there early morning and take a ride on a row boat to get the real sense of floating market.

In emotional aspect the child is calm, merry and playful. She enjoys the attention that she is paid and actively seeks it. She easily enters into interaction with the children and the adults in the orphanage. She has friends among the children and prefers to play with them. She reacts actively in musical classes – makes rhythmical movements, but almost doesn't play with toys and prefers to put them in her mouth or toss them.
The child walks independently and carries out the orders of the physical therapist – crouches, stands up. She already eats by herself. She doesn't signal about her physiological needs and is taken care of entirely by the personnel of the orphanage.
The child is being taught to put her clothes on and take them off on her own. The training for gaining life skills continues.
Single moms and large families welcome, easy travel!

Clarice's pictures are so fun to see – she seems to be all sunshine and motion! She has such an amazing grin!
Clarice is so tiny; and she has many facial features of Fetal Alcohol Syndrome, in addition to her Down syndrome.
She has the personality of an impetuous toddler- very high energy and eager to try everything life has to offer. She too needs a family, and the sooner the better. The possibilities for a child to thrive when they reach a family are endless. She will definitely need medical attention, as you can tell from just seeing her teeth, and lots of patient instruction and guidance.
Update from May 2014:
Clarice has a sunshine smile, twinkling eyes, and a unique set of needs, as she is the victim of at least one confirmed type of maternal substance abuse in addition to having Down Syndrome and scoliosis. She has spent the entirety of her almost-15 years of her life without the essential and nurturing maternal and paternal bond. She is a sweet-natured, not loud, strong, and curious child who is the size of a slender six year-old. She is cognitively about two years old. She IS able to obey the stern orphanage nannies, and enjoys massage, stroller rides, sensory activities if she is offered, joint stimulation, and can walk. Clarice can engage in purposeful play and follow basic instructions. She bear-crawls (think Jungle Book) many times, and really has a gentle disposition. Her eyes are innocent and kind, and her personality is gentle and sweet. It is not fair to expect a child in this condition to "perform" for a room full of adults, and she is enamored and thankful with any offers of play or stimulation. She has a self-stimming habit of pushing on her private parts under her underpants, but as I have learned in the DS community, this is probably a result of a lack of sensory input. So, if given the right redirection through sensory play, her habit could be redirected. Clarice has the strength of a man when she wants you to hold her, and it is my opinion that it is unsuitable for her to have several physically smaller siblings. However, that is not legislated. There are several telling videos and photos of Clarice to share for the right family. She needs a family ASAP! I was told by a national regarding the kind of place she goes next — that "most children live for only one year at most once transferred." Please pray for precious Clarice. Could you love her as a daughter? God knows her name, and he will provide her needs.

Crystal is so pretty! Dark hair and brown eyes. She does have Down syndrome, but also has many facial features of FAS (fetal alcohol syndrome) as well. Crystal has tremendous potential. She has been significantly impacted by very poor vision and hearing, and that has resulted in lower cognition and physical abilities. Imagine how her world could open up with medical treatment, glasses, and hearing aids!
Crystal can be assertive sometimes, so a family with older children is recommended. Full medical and behavioral info available. Older parents, large families, and single moms welcome.

UPDATE from 2013:
Tara does not speak; she uses sign language to express herself. She is independent with most of her daily life. She is in a special need class; she can not read and write. She gets along with kids not super well but so so; Her personality is outgoing and she is very strong-willed. She can jump and climb. She likes to ride bike, watch TV, chase.

From someone who met her: She was in an almost empty room, just with another child next to her. She was rocking and gnawing at the bars of the cot and such a sad sight to behold. My heart just collapsed for her!
Velia is IN THERE. She needs a family urgently. URGENTLY.
Every minute Velia spends here is a lost opportunity for life. There is a family out there who will want her, love her, cherish her, help her reach her true potential. Grant donations make all the difference!

Down syndrome, Hep B
Trudy has normal limb development and delayed mental development compared to other children. Upon admission, she was 1 year old and she was careful in her new surroundings. At the age of 2 years, she could walk alone, was curious about new things, her hand-eye coordination was improved, and she could express her emotion. At the age of 4 years, she could have eat and drink independently and could recognize people, places and objects, but her expression was poor. At the age of 6 years, she was receiving the special education in the institute. Her self-management was improved under the guidance of the teacher, but her accepting ability was not good compared to other kids of her age. At the age of 8 years, she could speak simple numbers and words, could draw, could finish some simple jigsaw puzzles, and could play with the toy blocks. Now she can wave her body along with the rhythm of the music, can read simple children's songs and words, and can count 1-10, but her expression is still poor. Trudy is open, likes music, can get along well with other kids, likes helping people, and wants to be praised. She is happy when watching cartoons and walking outside.
Down syndrome
From one of our adoptive families who met her in August 2014: " Harley was so sweet and gentle. She reached for my hands several times and is very aware of her surroundings. She is walking and just a gentle little love. However, she knows how to express her dislikes as well. One of the other children was crowding her and she did not like it so she let her know in no uncertain terms that she was not pleased. She really is a doll!"
From someone who met her in 2013:
It is so difficult to believe we celebrated Harley's 13th birthday when we visited the orphanage. She's so very tiny and still very much a baby. She is very loving and sweet. She clings to you when you hold her and always smiles when you bounce her up and down and tickle you. She doesn't walk or talk, and is very limited. Harley is capable of walking with assistance and can take a few steps on her own if you push her hard enough! She can babble a little bit.
Update March 2014:
This little girl has spunk! She is now walking while holding hands with the nanny, and has opinions of her own about exactly who she will walk with and when she will do it. She may look like a 5 year old in size, but she has a ton of personality and independence! She seemed quite obedient, as they asked her to sit in her bed for a bit while they got her things together.
She doesn't speak that I heard, but is very observant and watched everything that was going on. Her receptive language skills seem much better than her expressive ones, since she nodded and complied with everything they asked, even though she had just woken up and seemed a bit bleary eyed. The staff said she has a very good attention span. She is very cute – so tiny for her age- she looks just like a kindergartner, not a 14 year old.

Emmaline is well behaved, lovely and cute. Sometimes when she feels injustice from other children, she would act as a spoiled child in the cuddle of a teacher. As she grows up everyday, we feel happy yet we worry about her, because she is very sensitive and is able to understand what the teachers tell her. Sometimes she could do something out of predict. She has a good friend and they are called "golden partners" just because they are always together whatsoever playing or eating. They share things well and they even do things together such as cleaning floors.
We remember that once she found one shoe on the air conditioning, and she wanted to get it down, however, she was not tall enough and she babbled telling her friend. The friend took a chair, Emmaline stepped on the chair in order to get the shoe, and finally, she made it. She really surprised us at that time. She is really amazing. She could think of using a chair to help to get the shoe to finish her goal.
Unfortunately, she seldom speaks, which is the thing that we worry about her the most. Only give her more stimulate of language skills such as doing some oral gym to help her learn simple words, could she incorporate herself into this society well.

Oh what a miracle, to have an updated photo of Katrina!!! And there is the light I knew had to be there! She doesn't realize it, but now that she has a profile here on Reece's Rainbow, Katrina has a CHANCE…a chance for a new life, a family of her own, to get out of these four walls and to have something to smile about.
From her medical records: Down syndrome, significant cognitive delay (coupled with FAS), flatfoot, partial atrophy of optic nerves, esotropia, secondary cardiomyopathy.
From a missionary who visited in August 2014: "Katrina is such a clever little munchkin. She mimics lots of different things, massage therapy, diapers changes, hammering in nails. Pulling faces the whole time, she is hilarious! She loves cuddles and once she has you she doesn't want to let go. She still drinks from a bottle. She can walk. She cannot talk (yet). She can be a bit rough at times (scratching / hitting / pushing) so would be better in a family with bigger kids. She just wants to be loved. "
From a missionary who visited with her in March 2012: Oh my heart…I so wanted to bring her home! She is a giggly soft hearted darling…she needs a mama!
From a family who met her, summer 2014:
Katrina was sitting in a stroller both times we saw her but I know she can walk. She seemed very happy to sit and listen to music during a concert for the orphanage, and she looked over at us with curiosity a few times. Her eyes are gorgeous. She was super cute and smiley, also calm and entertained when we saw her.
She was one of the girls selected for the group home, and the individual attention and instruction should really help her transition into a family! Even though she is getting better care right now, she would make even more progress in a real home. She needs a family!
Katrina and Tania can be adopted together if a family is approved and interested. 10 day wait often waived here. Married couples only, larger families welcome.

Girl, approx 12 years old
Down syndrome; Moderate delays
From a report in 2009:
Frankie is a self-sufficient girl, confident, independent, with initiative, restless, with the capacity to interact, she reclaims what she wants, is stubborn and demanding in their desires, impulsive, she plays games for recreation and relationship with her peers. She likes music and dancing.
She has a mental age of 3 ½ years [as of 2009], her verbal language is limited, she shows initiative to communicate, her comprehension is more advanced than her expressive speech.
She moves easily up and down stairs, kicks and throws the ball; her fine motor coordination is poor, she likes coloring, making repetitive lines and activities with the pencil, she uses scissors.
She is said to be independent and active, and she especially loves to swing. She is shy with other children, and seeks attention from adults, cuddling up when hugs and affection are available.
From her medical records: Down syndrome, esotropia, flatfoot, secondary cardiomyopathy.
From a missionary who visited in August 2014: " she is full of energy, she'll keep you on your toes. She eats very well and can feed herself. She can walk, run and jump. She doesn't talk but she makes sounds. She is very boisterous and on the go, she needs big brothers in her life! "
From a missionary who visited with her in March 2012: One time the care giver made her sit with other children she was so desperate for me all to herself shecried! she really didnt want to share me. This is seriously one child who wants a Mama! She seemed so bright, there is so much potential here being wasted. She whacked the other children to keep them away from me but I could tell she was not an aggressive child. Tania is fiesty and able and just desperate for love! I loved her!!! I wanted to bring her and Katarina home. Tania is always active and she loves playing with her swing set, unlike the other kids who rather just play with their toys. The child is a bit shy around the children of her age. However, she is very brave and courageous when dealing with new visitors. The girl suffers from a lack of motherly care and gentleness, so she is attracted to everyone who is nice and kind to her. She hides her lonely soul behind the wall of her active and independent lifestyle. But as soon as she receives a warm hug and a little love, the mischievous girl suddenly becomes docile and calm.
Larger families, older parents welcome. This region does often waive the 10-day waiting period!
From a family who met her, summer 2014:
Tania is such a tiny little cutie! I can't believe she is still waiting! She was also a good friend of one of our boys. Every time he sees her picture he will call out her name.We saw her with the other kids from her home at a concert at the orphanage. She was watching everything and danced to a few of the songs. She was the size of a petite five year old, but proportionally small, not too skinny. Her hair is just starting to grow out and is so pretty. She waved and smiled at us a couple times while we were there with our sons. When everyone walked back to the homes after the concert, she got mixed in with our group as her caregivers were pushing wheelchairs and going more slowly. When our group pointed back to where her group was, she turned and walked back very agreeably. She had no trouble walking the fifteen minutes in each direction. We didn't hear her talk, but she did seem to understand what the caregivers were saying.
She would do so well in a family. The home she is in now is more of a family setting with fewer children and more individual attention, but it is not the same as a real family and they can't stay there forever. It will give her a great head start to transitioning to a family though!
Girl, born 2001
Down syndrome
Update May 2012:
Dawn lived in an orphanage until she was three, when they moved her to an institution.
She just started walking a couple of months ago. She enjoys interacting with adults and playing with toys. Her favorite activities and toys revolve around music. She understands what is said to her but does not have any meaningful speech at this time. She reacts very positively to attention, smiles and cheers when adults interact with her. She attends a class at the institution, but does not go to school outside of the institution. She has not had the opportunity to experience many of the ordinary activities that other children her age are naturally exposed to due to the length of time she's been institutionalized. She doesn't have any medical or behavioral concerns. She just needs a family willing to look past her age to see her potential!
Praise God for a new photo! Isn't she BEAUTIFUL!? This beautiful girl is waiting for her forever family. She has blonde hair and blue eyes. She was born with Down syndrome, and is positive for Hep B.

A kit that makes it possible to have the same works suspension on your KTM as Kawasaki and Honda factory riders have.
$7409.00 (with triple clamps).
CONTACT? (951) 738-8050 or www.procircuit.com.
If you read MXA's 2009 450 Shootout, then you know that the MXA wrecking crew liked the 2009 KTM 450SXF a great deal. And, as was pointed out, one of the reasons that the orange bike didn't win the shootout was nagging doubts about the KTM's Dutch-built WP rear shock. So, when Pro Circuit started testing its exotic Showa Works suspension kit for KTMs, we were the first to sign up as test riders for the highly regarded titanium-nitride-coated A-kit components.
The Showa forks feature 49mm tubes, which are 1mm larger than the KTM's 48mm WP units, and use a titanium-nitride coating that is more durable and gives a much smoother stroke. The optional turquoise-nitride coating, used by Team Pro Circuit, offers an even smoother stroke and enhanced performance. Pro Circuit's unique internal cartridge system incorporates a new, larger, Kashima-coated aluminum cartridge rod that is sealed and pressurized like a shock to provide a more effective feel and supple fork action. Axle lugs are CNC-machined for increased durability and performance.
The Showa Works shock has a giant 18mm shock shaft that uses a check valve system to isolate the compression and rebound stroke for more control. The larger shaft also displaces more oil and complements the large, 28mm piston compression adjuster. The 50mm hard-anodized body is Kashima coated to reduce heat buildup. For the MXA wrecking crew, the ability to bolt on the same forks and shock that the Japanese race teams use was a chance to finally answer the no-link-versus-linkage question.
WHAT STANDS OUT? Here's a list of things that stand out with the Pro Circuit/Showa Works KTM suspension.
(1) Forks. The extra diameter and better metallurgy of the 49mm Showa fork legs keeps the forks from flexing in corners. The Showa Works forks come with sealed, pressurized, Kashima-coated, aluminum cartridge rods with much closer tolerances than the stock parts. There are CNC-machined axle lugs and tighter tolerances, and a unique internal cartridge system completes the package.
(2) Shock. Showa's Works shock has 28 clicks of rebound, four turns of high-speed compression and 26 clicks of low-speed compression adjustment. The shock's internals are graced with a 28mm piston, LSV system and Kashima coatings. Suffice it to say that the Pro Circuit Showa works KTM shock offered much more tuneability than the stock WP unit.
(3) Performance. First and foremost, you must understand that the Showa Works kit is just steel and aluminum. As it comes from the factory, it still has to be valved for your speed, weight and style. And that is the catch. The MXA wrecking crew spent three weeks testing various fork and shock settings (springs, damping and oil height) for our 2009 KTM 450SXF. There were no previous numbers for us to fall back on (save for some KTM 250SXF settings that Pro Circuit had worked on with Team KTM). In the end, our final valving and spring rates worked well with the KTM's no-link suspension system. The bike tracked straighter, wiggled less and absorbed big and small hits with equal aplomb. The major benefits of Pro Circuit's Showa-built Works suspension were in fluidity, lack of stiction, increased rigidity and adjustability. The forks and shock worked in harmony to soak up the chop to such an extent that the bike actually handled better in every situation. Link or no-link, excellent suspension components make a difference.
(4) Setup. We think that every National-class KTM rider would be well-served to swap his WP components for Showa equipment. Not only is there a quality improvement, but the level of suspension support at the Nationals is worth considering.
(5) Place of Manufacture. Pro Circuit Showa Works suspension is manufactured in Japan, but is assembled and valved in Corona, California (at Pro Circuit).
WHAT'S THE SQUAWK? The price is exorbitant. At over $7000, this is not a purchase that can be taken lightly, nor is it one that short-circuits the age-old conundrum that the suspension still has to be valved perfectly to work perfectly.
This is five-star suspension, but only for millionaires, National Pros and the status-conscious. For everyone else, you could buy an Ohlins, Fox or gold-plated rear shock for your KTM and have the WP forks revalved 24 times (and still have money left over).

Nico Hulkenberg departs Force India after the Brazilian GP and he wants to finish strongly.
For all the latest F1 odds on the Brazilian GP, the final round of the 2012 F1 Championship, visit Sky Bet.
Nico Hulkenberg
Q: Nico, another four points in Austin brings your total to 53. How do you look back on the second half of the year?
NH: It has been very positive. We had some good results in the first half too, but I think we found our consistency after the summer break. I think some of my best races were Japan and Korea where we didn't necessarily expect to do so well. To score points there was very satisfying. Also, races such as Austin, where I was under so much pressure towards the end are the moments I will remember from the second part of the year. These were races where we maximised everything.
Q: Your two-year spell with the team comes to an end this weekend. How much have you enjoyed being a part of Sahara Force India?
NH: First of all I want to thank everyone for believing in me and giving me the chance to return to Formula One this year as a race driver. I've learned a lot during the last two seasons, even as a third driver, and the time has flown by very quickly. It's a great team of people; they're fun to work with and I think we can be proud of the results we achieved together. That's why it was not an easy decision to leave, but I'm happy to be leaving with good memories. The task now is to end the year in style with a great result.
Paul di Resta
Q: Paul, after 19 races you've scored 46 points. Are you happy with the season as a whole?
Q: You raced in Brazil for the first time last year. Tell us about that experience...

FREE Summer Activities to Make your Kids Smarter!
Family Features
Yep, we're in the middle of those lazy dog days of summer. But if you've got kids at home, there's no laziness involved! They want to be active, and you want to engage their rapidly forming brains. Right?
Scientists estimate that the brain is made up of 100 billion cells, and dendrites are the extensions from those cells that are responsible for picking up information from neighboring neurons and transmitting this information to the cell body. The term "dendrite" comes from the Greek word for "tree" because they have distinctive tree-like structures that branch out and actually grow and lengthen as a result of stimulation from and interaction with the environment. With limited stimulation there is limited growth. With no stimulation, dendrites actually disappear.
So, instead of letting them stare at the TV or play video games all summer, let's grow some dendrites in our kids with these brain-stimulating activities:
1. Go Geocaching – Use your smartphone and go on a modern-day treasure hunting adventure to find "caches," which are just waterproof containers with a log inside and inexpensive prizes, like super balls, tiny toys, occasionally coins or money, etc. When you find a cache, sign the log and take the prize. The general rule of thumb is, whatever you take, leave something of equal value or better! When people put out a new geocache, they usually include a gift card or higher-value prize for the "first to find." To get started, you can download the FREE Geocaching Intro app or get the "official" Geocaching app for $9.99!
2. Create a Drama Queen (or King) - Go here to choose from over 100 Children's Playscripts you can download for FREE. You'll get those creative juices flowing, when your kids choose their characters, create costumes, then put on a show right in your living room.
3. Get Bowled Over – Not only does bowling burn a few calories, it can also be mentally challenging. Sign up your kids for the AMF Summer Unplugged Program, and they can bowl for FREE all summer long! Redeem your two games each day from open until 8:00 p.m.
4. Listen Up! - Adventures in Odyssey is an audio series heard on radio stations around the country. It's created for ages 8-12, but enjoyed by the whole family, with fictional, character-building dramas that teach lasting truths. I've downloaded tons of FREE episodes to my old iPhone, and my boys will sit and listen to the shows for hours. I love that they're learning critical listening skills, plus using their imaginations to create the characters and scenes they're hearing.
To easily download three FREE episodes, go here. If you want more, go here, then click on the "Podcast & Blog" tab. Scroll down and notice that many of the Podcasts include FREE episodes. When you see one you want, just right click on "Download this episode to your computer." There are posts that go all the way back to 2008, so you should be able to quickly build up your library of FREE episodes.
5. Build It - Lowe's Build and Grow Clinics are offered twice a month. Kids get an apron, goggles and a patch to take home, along with their project, and best of all it's FREE. Home Depot's FREE Kid's Workshop is offered the 1st Saturday of every month and teaches children do-it-yourself skills, tool safety and instills a sense of pride and accomplishment. Kids get to keep their craft, receive a FREE certificate of achievement, a Workshop Apron, and a commemorative pin.
6. Get Cultured - Target partners with museums across the country and offers FREE admission once a month. Go here, select your city and find a participating museum near you. If you have a Bank of America credit card you can receive FREE admission* at more than 150 museums, science centers, and botanical gardens across the country on the first full weekend each month. *Note: (1) FREE general admission per cardholder.
7. Check it Out - The public library isn't just for borrowing books anymore. Along with their Summer Reading Programs, many feature special LIVE performances. From magicians and mad scientists, to zoologist and puppeteers, check with your local library to find an upcoming FREE show that will both intrigue and entertain your child.
8. Write it Down – My boys recently starting keeping a "Gratitude Journal." Each night before going to bed, they write down three things they experienced during day for which they are thankful and grateful. Not only does this help them appreciate and value their experiences, but it teaches them to reflect upon and think deeply about their surroundings, family, friends and the life they've been given.

Recruitment at Brown * Recruitment Schedule * Why Join a Greek House? * The Recruitment Process * FAQs
Do I enter the Housing Lottery if I decide to join a Greek House?
No. The deadline to decide to join any program house at Brown, including Greek houses, comes before the lottery. By joining a Greek house you pull yourself out of the lottery and get assigned housing on Wriston in the house you join.
Do Fraternities Haze?
No. Brown takes hazing very seriously and consistently works with the various houses to make sure that hazing never becomes an issue.
Is going Greek a major time commitment?
Yes. While different members maintain different levels of involvement with their houses, everyone is expected to contribute in some ways to their chapter.
The best thing you can do is to talk to a number of different members to get a feel for how they spend their time.
Are dues expensive?
Going Greek at Brown does not mean changing your housing or dining plans, so most chapters are able to maintain very low dues relative to other universities. However, expenses still range from house to house.
Be sure to ask about dues before you choose to join. Most houses have payment plans or scholarships available for members with exceptional need, so you should not let dues stand between you and joining.

UTICA, N.Y. -- It's been 90 days since a group of National Guard soldiers returned home after a five month deployment in Afghanistan.
About 170 soldiers were sent on a security and support mission and on Saturday, the soldiers, their families, commanders and local politicians gathered to honor those men and women, giving them service awards.
"It means everything to them because it means an acknowledgement of the service they've done to their country. But I know I can speak for everyone here, in my unit, just being home safely and being with their loved ones, that's the most important award," said 1st Lieutenant Jason Uhlig.
Awards were also given to a handful of family members that supported the soldiers and assisted with communication to soldiers' families back home.

24H Architecture left parts of the original building erected in the 1960s and then added a new central hall – a "lemniscate." This is a figure eight structure or two loops that join in a central middle. The idea was to give the public face of the school a very distinctive identity. Add to this natural slate cladding and the effect is really quite powerful.
An interior courtyard that acts as the central playground has a facade of hardwood strips arranged in leaf patterns while each of the 32 classrooms have unique wooden ceilings. A new U-shaped building has a brick facade and timber detailing inside that is ideally suited to the self-empowering and nature-centric Waldorf curriculum. Fresh, airy, and soon to be covered in flowering plants, this is a very special place for students to learn and grow.

awesome m8, just started a tank and this post was pure gold tbh, keep it up!
48.7% avoidance (dodge/parry/miss) and 77.1% combined...wasn't thinking right...sorry
|Ex Tank|
awesome m8, just started a tank and this post was pure gold tbh, keep it up!
Hi, i don't know where to ask this, so i posted this here. I have a druid lvl 70 and i find it hard to hold aggro. I've tried all sorts of rotation with mangle, maul lacx5 and repeat or maul, mangle lacx3 mangle lacx3 or mangle lacx5, maul mangle lacx5. But i still can't hold the mob to myself. What is wrong here ? And how do i tank multiple mobs ? All i do is mangle and lacx1 on skull, then lac2x on X, then probably mangle the 3rd mob then back to skull to keep on lac-ing. Is that right ? Can anyone enlighten me ?
I don't really know much about druids, but you may want to try asking in the druid sticky: http://www.tankspot.com/forums/tanks...de-druids.html
Hey Xav i want to thank you for the post u wrote . It helped me a lot, my tank is t5 quality and is entering mh and bt. I want to ask u a question- U say the best rotation is SS/Rev/dev/dev. I agree but what if i dont dodge/block or parry in the beggining of the fight and cant cast my Rev?

WHY is executioner a better "threat weapon?"....I've been wondering this for ages, but doesn't agility(120 from mongoose + attack speed increase) increase crit, which increases rage and threat?...Seems like the 4-5% crit from mongoose proc would outway the threat gained from armor ignore...Plus the added avoidance doesn't hurt at all....Anyone have some figures on Executioner vs. Mongoose for THREAT?
This was parsed by EJ a long time ago and Ignore armor benefits higher threat gains than mongoose entirely. the attack speed increase is 2% on a 1.6 speed tanking weapon that makes it a whopping 1.568 speed. The agility sure boosts our crit, but ignoring an opponents armor scales faster than crit does, especially post sunder and proc'ing it gives ALL of our attacks, including crits during the duration to hit for 840 less armor mitigation, that's a good 2-3% mitigation removal right there. If you're gonna argue about threat you can't toss in the avoidance issue, yes goose is better for avoidance, there's no arguing that, but executioner likewise is better for threat.

I have to said it, this post was realy helpfull, we kill for the first time Illidan 3 weeks ago and its a bit because of your post. Quick question do you use your starting ss macro in all fight or you swich whit the reg ss agains high dps boss like mother.
Prot war
I found this thread very helpful Xav, and you have convinced me to drop all my "tanking" macros in the hopeful goal to achieve better threat/rage via tighter rotations and more controlled rage management. I know quite a few of you who are more experienced (ie Satrina) do not use tanking macros either, and I've no doubt you all know more than I. So thanks for pointing out exactly why it is not a good idea to use tanking macros (excluding non-combat, pvp, fear dance). Much appreciated.
Now I just need to find/create a thread so I can figure out exactly what addons I can use that are most beneficial for tanking only.
I recently downloaded Fame's UI package and found it to be way to much stuff for me to understand how it's use would help. I did pick apart the folder and found some addons I liked more than others. But things like Fubar and some others didn't seem helpful, or I just had no idea what to do with it. Do I need raid bars as a tank (ie Pitbull)?

Raid bars as a tank, absolutely. You can check out my UI and see if it's more your style. It's in the ui forum also.
The threat boost you get from an executioner proc is higher than mongoose but mongoose is vastly superior for a tank overall due to the mitigation it gives.

Xav, thank you so much for creating this thread. While I was learning how to tank, and still just getting my confidence up,(My record back then for tanking was MT with 2 wipes :P) this really taught me how to do decent TPS. Thanks to this thread, and also other threads, I greatly improved my tanking. I also switched my Strafes to the A/D to use Q/E For my Shield Slam/Revenge. As I said at the start, thank you for this post :P
Currently failing at buying an epic flyer..
Ah, bookmarked this thread, will digest a little later Looks like there's exactly what I need in here!
...I'm going to want to see what is made of the new talent trees, though - evil, evil Shield Block nerf! Any ideas on an ETA for such an analysis?
Eh, this thread is far less relevant now with the 3.0 changes, I'm not sure if I'll ever review it. Most if it still applies, anyway, since it's methodology / player skill things and not specific to talents, etc.
very helpful. thanks.
Not to be a party pooper but XAV's guide is really, really out of date. I wonder if it might be better to just remove it since it is no longer being updated.
while the gear, and even maybe the rotation might be off from the new ideal rotations for threat, a lot of what he discusses, especially keybinding, communication, and such, are all very valid, so removing the guide although outdated, would be a detriment to players who want to improve themselves.
READ THIS: Posting & Chat Rules
Using Glyph of Revenge (http://www.wowwiki.com/Glyph_of_Revenge) your next HS will be on free.
So, this means that we will modify a little our rotation, right?
Ah, assuming that there is a ONE MOB fight! If it is a multi-mob fight, then Thunder Clap as soon as available. I am a beginner, 68 lvl, so fighting multi-mobs can be a challenge

It is about time to start some of your vegetables in the home for transplanting to the garden this spring. Don't jump the gun. Be selective on what you start as some vegetables should be no more than 5 to 7 weeks old when they are planted into the garden. Some vegetables are best seeded directly into the garden instead of being started as transplants; some of these should have been planted last fall.
I spoke with Mike at the Roasted coffee shop on Tuesday when I stopped in for my regular vanilla latte. He already has spinach and lettuce up and its almost ready to eat. He planted last September and placed a makeshift high tunnel over the planting to enhance growth. With the warm days we have had recently these and other cold-hardy vegetables should get a great start on the season. The warm days in the Grand Valley have warmed the soil sufficiently for the planting of cool season vegetables in the garden. Even if the soil is frozen below the surface, if the top half-inch of soil is not frozen, you can plant the seed of spinach, lettuce, peas, broccoli, cauliflower, radishes and cabbage. I would suggest you do this in mid-afternoon when the soil is warmest and then cover the planting with a thin layer of straw, hay, or compost as mulch. This mulch layer will help trap in some of the warmth and retain moisture so these vegetables can germinate at the proper time.
Tomatoes, peppers, beans and other warm-season plants should not be seeded into the garden until about a week prior to the average last spring frost. The Climate Information link at WesternSlopeGardening.org gives specifics on the climate of various sites in western Colorado. In Grand Junction I like to consider April 25th as the average last spring frost. We can plant the seed of warm-season vegetables one week prior to this date but should not set out warm-season vegetable transplants until after this date unless you protect them with walls-o-water or similar covers.
If you are starting celery from seed, these take 10 to 12 weeks of development before they should be set into the garden. Asparagus transplants should be started from seed eight to 10 weeks prior to the average last spring frost. These are some of the earliest vegetables you should start as transplants. Tomatoes, peppers, and eggplants should be started no sooner than five to seven weeks prior to April 25. Well, actually you need to add a couple weeks to this to account for the length of time it takes for the seeds to germinate.
Smaller, stocky plants that have not started to bloom and/or set fruit adapt to the garden more easily than leggy transplants that already have small fruits hanging on them. Small plants of the proper age grow and yield better than older transplants. Plants such as tomatoes should be stocky when set out in the garden. Plants that are 6 inches tall and 6 inches wide are the best producers.
Starting your own plants can ensure disease-free transplants, produce varieties you may not be able to locate in a local nursery, and give you a good feeling. Tomatoes are quite easy to grow as transplants while peppers and eggplants are slightly more difficult. Most transplants develop very well in the home if grown under lights, a topic I will be covering in next week's column.
