WASHINGTON - Yoga is doing more than improving the bodies and minds of those who belong to a local studio. Yoga outreach programs are extending their reach throughout the area, making the popular practice accessible to anyone who is interested.
Jasmine Chehrazi, founder of Yoga District and Yoga Activist, is one of many yoga instructors and enthusiasts in the area helping to combat yoga's cookie-cutter image.
"The point of the practice for many is self-realization and understanding who you really are," she says. "Everyone has that question -- everyone. It doesn't matter where you come from, how you look, whether you can touch your toes or not, what your cultural or economic or racial background is. We have to adapt the practice to make it relevant."
She believes yoga is a practice that serves each individual in a unique way, and she is helping to spread the practice of yoga to a variety of communities throughout the area.
In 2006, Chehrazi founded Yoga District, which offers affordable yoga classes at six not-for-profit, community-run yoga studios in D.C. A seventh studio is currently being constructed in Anacostia and will open later this year.
At Yoga District, instructors teach classes of all skill levels for $11 or less.
Despite the affordability of Yoga District classes (compared to other class rates in the D.C. area, which hover around $18 a session), Chehrazi quickly noticed the practice was still restricted to the studio setting and was not reaching a wider demographic. So in 2008, she created Yoga Activist.
Supported largely by Yoga District, Yoga Activist focuses on partnering yoga instructors with social service organizations that offer yoga programs for their communities. From classroom management to trauma sensitivity, the nonprofit outreach program helps prepare teachers for instructing yoga to under-served communities.
Teachers at Yoga Activist can also set up their own outreach programs, bringing yoga instruction to churches, schools, halfway houses, mental health centers, prisons and other locations where the community members may not otherwise have exposure to yoga.
Yoga Activist volunteer Carrie Mumah has been teaching with yoga outreach programs for two years. She currently works with Petworth Library to coordinate free weekly yoga classes open to the public.
Mumah instructs about 25 individuals each week, from ages 6 to 95, but most of her students are between 50 and 70 years old and practice yoga despite having arthritis and other injuries.
"It's a lot of fun, and it's kind of awesome that it's at a library because libraries are all about making things accessible and making information accessible to everyone in the community, so it's great to make yoga a part of that," Mumah says.
Her favorite yoga class she taught was at the mental health center, Green Door. Mumah facilitated a chair yoga class to the homeless and the recently homeless with severe mental illnesses.
Working with the mentally and physically impaired allowed Mumah to be creative and adapt the yoga practice to suit her students' unique abilities.
Yoga Activist board member Anna-Maria Garza first became involved with Yoga District in 2009. She chose this specific yoga service because of its unique mission to serve the community at a grassroots level.
Her first outreach program was at N Street Village, a shelter and community of empowerment for homeless and low-income women in the District. Now she teaches amputees at Walter Reed National Military Medical Center under the direction of Daniel Hickman.
"There are so many different communities that don't necessarily have access to yoga studios or don't even know that they want access to a yoga program, but yoga works the same for everyone," Garza says. "We're all the same. We all have different experiences obviously, but the way that it works on the typical body is that it allows the body to heal itself and calm the mind."
According to Garza, outreach yoga gives people the chance to reconnect with themselves in ways they usually don't have the space for, while providing them with support as they stretch and strengthen their bodies.
Working with a quadruple amputee taught Garza there is always something to be done with the body. Not only does she teach amputees, but she also teaches anyone in the environment supporting the amputees' recoveries. Physical therapists, occupational therapists, families of the amputees and Red Cross volunteers all join the amputees in yoga sessions that ease the body and mind.
"It really comes down to being open and present in the environment you also can't limit yourself to Oh these guys are only going to be able to do certain things,'" Garza says. "Some of them are only 21 years old and full of fire and want to be challenged."
In addition to yoga at hospitals and other health centers, the practice has also entered D.C. schools.
Social workers, teachers and other social service providers can take week- long training sessions with Yoga Activist to learn how to integrate some yoga skills into their current classes and programs.
"Just having a little bit of centering a ritual of centering breath or a movement and coordinating body and breath can really go a long way," Chehrazi says.
In fact, one elementary school teacher noticed significant improvement in students' concentration once she began a routine of bringing everyone together for deep breathing before and after recess.
Chehrazi also emphasizes the importance of connectivity between yoga instructors and enthusiasts across the country. In order to facilitate greater conversation between yoga teachers, Yoga Activist has its own database, Yoga Base, to promote the grassroots movement across the nation.
Teachers around the country can run a search to find other yogis who are doing similar outreach practices in their area, and they can also share surveys on the database that will be stored on their personal profile.
Chehrazi says the surveys help teachers track their progress while informing other teachers of their work in strengthening the community.
Yoga Activist also donates used mats to yoga outreach programs worldwide, from Haiti to D.C. Anyone who wishes to get rid of their yoga mat can drop it off at one of the Yoga District studios where they are cleaned and sorted for distribution.
If they are beyond use, Yoga Activist donates them to animal shelters where they can be used to line cages.
Never throwing a single mat away speaks to a dedication to sustainable practices at Yoga District and Yoga Activist. The studios use eco-friendly cleaning products and are transitioning to an entirely white vinegar-based cleaning system.
Yoga District prints flyers on recycled paper with eco-friendly ink, paints all of its walls with zero-VOC paint and keeps energy usage down as much as possible.
"We also consider the studios safe places," Chehrazi says. "We don't sell anything on site on purpose because we don't want it to be a commercial site. We call it a safe place so that people don't feel like they have to buy anything to be part of the community it's kind of refreshing to just go into a place and all there is to do is just be."

The Web Is 25 — And The Semantic Web Has Been An Important Part Of It
NOTE: This post was updated at 5:40pm ET.
Today the Web celebrates its 25th birthday, and we celebrate the Semantic Web's role in that milestone. And what a milestone it is: As of this month, the Indexed Web contains at least 2.31 billion pages, according to WorldWideWebSize.
The Semantic Web Blog reached out to the World Wide Web Consortium's current and former semantic leads to get their perspective on the roads The Semantic Web has traveled and the value it has so far brought to the Web's table: Phil Archer, W3C Data Activity Lead coordinating work on the Semantic Web and related technologies; Ivan Herman, who last year transitioned roles at the W3C from Semantic Activity Lead to Digital Publishing Activity Lead; and Eric Miller, co-founder and president of Zepheira and the leader of the Semantic Web Initiative at the W3C until 2007.
While The Semantic Web came to the attention of the wider public in 2001, with the publication in The Scientific American of The Semantic Web by Tim Berners-Lee, James Hendler and Ora Lassila, Archer points out that "one could argue that the Semantic Web is 25 years old," too. He cites Berners-Lee's March 1989 paper, Information Management: A Proposal, that includes a diagram that shows relationships that are immediately recognizable as triples. "That's how Tim envisaged it from Day 1," Archer says.

heh, I think I'd rather not admit just how much time I've spent in there since I bought it the other week. Suffice to say, I've been doing a lot more of my daily work in the evenings recently.
I think the following page has a good descriptor of what Minecraft is all about.. http://minecraftporn.com/09/what…
It can "best be described as an autism simulator".
I just can't help but feel it's the shift towards a much deeper (scuse the pun) and long-overdue way of looking at environments in games. These kind of environments are exactly what multi-core processors should be doing with their time - fuck trying to eke every last explosive particle from the graphics processor - spend time instead calculating what knock-on effects happen between different 'pixel' type encounters.

"Make the world itself engaging, not the veneer cladding it."
Exactly, see also Dwarf Fortress which although much weaker graphically it also randomly generates a world. Although the Dwarf Fortress world is an entire planet with erosion/rivers/glaciers/mountain... towers/huge caves/lava seas then it plays out a few thousand years of war and history before you even start playing.
Ridiculously in depth game, it models an entire world and the 4 seasons (lakes freeze over if the region is cold enough) but then even goes as deep to model how many teeth your dwarf has, what their left sock is made out of and how they feel about their pet cat drowning in the well.

Monroe County Sheriff's deputies say 24-year old Igor Djenge was driving eratically on Scottsville Road around 3:20 a.m.
A tractor trailer heading in the opposite direction tried to swerve out of the way but ended up hitting Djenge's car.
He was taken to Strong Hospital with what are believed to be non-life threatening injuries.

Mobile Cultural Mobilizarte is an ephemeral and itinerant pavilion made up of three elements, all which pack neatly into containers for shipment. A set of scaffolding towers, which are easily assembled, very stable and adaptable to any kind of terrain, form the skeleton of the pavilion. The scaffolding can be extended up to 10 meters high. The Prism is a white box formed from scaffolding 15 meters high and wrapped in a waterproof canvas. Serving as a projection screen for films and other media, the Prism also serves as a storage area and protected space for equipment.
Finally, the membrane is used to create a covered space over the pavilion grounds. Inspired by two traditional Brazilian elements - the crochet, lace and patchwork quilts – which serve to cover and protect, and the hollow elements ("cobogós"), the membrane is made from inflatable beams and a waterproof and UV layer. During the day sunlight streams in through the translucent membrane and at night lighting shines out through the lace-like pattern. The membrane is raised up onto the scaffolding just like a circus tent is raised and provides a large 550 sq meter space for events.
The membrane can be twisted, tilted, tumbled, hung, laid, stretched, twirled or languidly spread to create hundreds of variations for the pavilion. No two installations will ever be alike and the site will determine the size and shape. The pavilion can be attached to other existing buildings to extend their space or it can be set up in an open field or parking lot to act on its own.

New York City Police Commissioner Ray Kelly had high praise Saturday for law enforcement officials who worked to capture the second suspect in the Boston Marathon bombings Friday night.
"I think they did a great job," Kelly said. "One of the issues up there is there are many different jurisdictions. They were able to bring them all together and work as a cohesive team. And obviously, it's unfortunate, of course, that the MIT police officer was killed. It looks like just and out-and-out assassination. But the officer did a terrific job in curtailing what could have been a lot more violence."
Kelly said that the city remains vigilant in ensuring the safety of New Yorkers from an attack.
"We've done an awful lot here to protect the city. We keep those tactics and strategies in place to protect the city," Kelly said. "We can't afford to let our guard down. Obviously, we did some adjustments of our city while this was going on in Boston. But in essence, we're continuing to do the same thing we've done for 11 years."
Rep. Michael Grimm, a former FBI agent, called the bombing "a very unique case that will be studied by the FBI and intelligence agencies."
"This is really a homegrown incident, to some extent. And I think for that reason, because he was popular, he was on a wrestling team, they really need to look and see, why would someone that doesn't fit any of the usual profiles, how can they become radicalized to this extent?" Grimm said. "They put a bag down with nails and pellets next to an 8-year-old child. That's a pretty difficult thing, to go from a wrestler at a good school to doing something so heinous as that."
Transit in Amtrak's Northeast Corridor returned to normal Saturday after being shut down for hours Friday following a manhunt for Dzhokhar A. Tsarnaev, the second alleged suspect in the bombings.
Amtrak said Friday night that it expected regular service between New York and Boston Saturday.
Limited service resumed Friday night after almost a full day of suspensions during the manhunt in Boston.
Penn Station was crowded all day with stranded passengers when the Acela Express and Northeast Regional service were suspended.
Amtrak said that travelers should still check online before heading to their trains.
Anyone who already paid but can't travel now can get a refund or voucher for future travel.
There will also be additional security in place for races being held in the city this weekend.
The National Guard is sending an additional 150 guardsmen to the city, and sources tell NY1 that the State Police will also provide extra hands.
New York Road Runners says additional measures are being added for Sunday's 'City Parks Foundation Run for the Parks' in Central Park.
Runners are being encouraged not to bring bags, and any unattended bags will be confiscated.
Trash cans are also being moved so there are none near the race route.
Mayor Michael Bloomberg on Thursday encouraged New Yorkers to take advantage of what the city has to offer during the weekend.
"I will tell you that what you should do this weekend is go out and enjoy the things that are here in New York City, all the events that are taking place," he said. "Go out in the streets. Don't be afraid, because you are as safe today as you were before, and you will be in the future. That's the safest we can possibly make it. There's no guarantees, 100 percent, but this is the place you want to live. Ray Kelly and all of the different uniformed services all work together to keep everybody safe, and we will continue to do that and will continue to modify our strategies every day and have a level of security that we think is appropriate."
Residents of the city of Boston and several nearby suburbs were asked to stay indoors for hours Friday as the manhunt for the second suspect continued, ultimately culminating in the capture of Dzhokhar A. Tsarnaev at approximately 8:45 p.m.
The 19-year-old is in a Boston area hospital with serious gunshot wounds.
The Boston PD posted a message to Twitter shortly after 8:45 p.m. Friday which read, "Suspect in custody. Officers sweeping the area. Stand by for further info."
A later Twitter message from the Boston PD account read, "CAPTURED!!! The hunt is over. The search is done. The terror is over. And justice has won. Suspect in custody."
"We're so grateful to bring justice and closure to this case to those families that lost loved ones or suffered injuries that they'll live with for the rest of their lives, for a police officer, a young man starting a career at MIT, and a police officer with the MBTA who almost lost his life, and for neighborhoods who had to live in fear for an entire day, we are eternally grateful for the outcome here tonight," said Col. Timothy Alben with the Massachusetts State Police. "We have a suspect in custody."
Boston Police Commissioner Ed Davis said that Dzhokhar Tsarnaev was discovered in a boat in the backyard of a homeowner in Watertown, who left his home after a lockdown on the area was lifted.
"There was a call that came in to the Watertown police. Three Boston police officers, along with state troopers and FBI agents, responded to Franklin Street," Davis said. "A man had gone out of his house after being inside the house all day, after abiding by our request to stay inside. He walked outside and he saw blood on a boat in the backyard. He then opened a tarp on the top of the boat, and he looked in and saw a man covered with blood. He retreated and called us. We set up a perimeter around that boat, and over the course of the next hour or so, we exchanged gunfire with the suspect, who was inside the boat, and ultimately, the hostage rescue team or the FBI made an entry into the boat and removed the suspect, who was still alive in the boat."
A Justice Department official says Dzhokhar Tsarnaev will not be read his Miranda rights.
The government is invoking a public safety exception, which is used when police need to protect themselves or the public from immediate danger.
Law enforcement officials can do a limited and focused interrogation of a suspect, which can be introduced as evidence in court.
The suspect will be questioned by a special interrogation team for high-value suspects.
The pursuit of Dzhokhar Tsarnaev and his older brother, Tamerlan, intensified Thursday night.
Police began chasing the two brothers after police say they shot and killed MIT campus police officer Sean Collier, 26.
The two men, later identified as the bombing suspects, then carjacked a Mercedes SUV and were pursued by police into Watertown, according to officials.
During the chase, the suspects allegedly fired weapons and threw explosive devices at responding officers, who then returned fire, killing Tamerlan.
Richard Donohue, 33, a Boston transit officer, was also injured in the exchange of fire, according to officials.
Donohue remains hospitalized as a result of his injuries.
NY1 has also learned the FBI interviewed Tamerlan in 2011 on a request from a foreign government, based on information he was a follower of radical Islam.
The bureau did not find any terrorism activity.
Three people were killed and almost 200 injured in Monday's attack.
President Barack Obama said Saturday that the week's events in Boston brought out the best in Americans.
In his first weekly address since the attacks, the president said the bombings failed to shake the country's resolve.
He praised the way Americans responded to the attack and subsequent manhunt.
"In the days since, the world has witnessed one sure and steadfast truth: Americans refuse to be terrorized," Obama said. "Ultimately, that's what we'll remember from this week. That's what will remain. Stories of heroism and kindness, resolve and resilience, generosity and love."
Obama also congratulated state and federal law enforcement for their swift identification and apprehension of the two suspects.
Republicans echoed Obama's sentiments in their weekly address.
South Carolina Sen. Tim Scott called on all Americans to thank law enforcement.
He also had a message for those with plans to attack the United States.
"There is no corner on earth, no hiding place in America that will keep us from finding you," Scott said. "The leaders of this country will do everything in our power to bring justice for the family, and communities impacted. Our freedom is our most precious possession. Any effort to take it away will only strengthen our determination."
Scott also called for prayers for the victims of the bombings and their families.

text: Thing is though, Blizzard wanted to give raiders more stuff to do in WoW. Other than raiding that is.. And they did, but atm we are in a point where if you did all the stuff daily, you just have nothing to do. You have a lot of lesser charms, you have maxed pet battle pets(not all but enough to make it dull), you have golds from challenge modes, you have enough food to last till next raid tier, you got bank full of mats. That atm is possible and at least for me has happened.. I just find nothing to do in WoW atm than level alts and do old content for mounts. Now ofc this is the very very very very small minority that am apart, but can see more and more people coming to same point where there is just nothing to do. And farm raids last for 1 day, sure you can do alt runs all week long but still thats just burning the content down faster, making it another DS syndrome where you just become very bored of running the same instance(s) over and over again.

(CNN) -- Federal authorities said Thursday that a small plane that crashed in east Georgia had aborted its landing before striking a 60-foot utility pole, killing five people onboard.
The plane careened into a wooded area and erupted in flames, said National Transportation Safety Board member Robert Sumwalt.
The light jet aircraft was headed toward the Thomson-McDuffie Regional Airport in Thomson when it crashed Wednesday night.
The plane was carrying employees of Vein Guys, a vein care company with four offices in the Southeast. The five people killed, all of whom worked for the medical group, were Tiffany Porter, Kim Davidson, Heidi McCorkle, Lisa Volpitto and Dr. Steven Roth, its chief physician, according to Vein Guys spokeswoman Tina Vidal-Smith.
"We are a family, and our hearts are heavy today as we have lost members of our team," said Kelly Vann, chief operating officer for Vein Guys. "Words cannot express our grief."
Both pilots survived the crash and are being treated at MCG Hospital in Augusta, the company said in its statement Thursday.
The flight took off from John C. Tune Airport in Nashville, Tennessee, -- a trip that Vein Guys described as "routine." The two cities are about 350 miles apart; Thomson is about 30 miles west of Augusta.
The crash sparked a fire and left nearby residents without power.
"It was like a boom," resident Rhonda Bouthry told CNN affiliate WJBF. "The power flickered on and off. It wasn't off but about 20 minutes."
The aircraft was a Hawker Beechcraft 390/Premier I.
CNN's AnneClaire Stapleton contributed to this report.

Its February! Time to break out all the reds, pinks, hearts, cards and flowers! The month of love is upon us!Whether its a pet, a family member, or a spouse, everyone has someone that they care about, and this month, the theme of love is running strong.
This months buffet is Listen to Your Heart. If youre like me, your brain immediately starts singing Listen With Your Heart, you will understand, but no, its not Pocahontas. Its a beautiful theme full of pinks, oranges, and yellows. They remind me of the conversation hearts, and yes, one designer did make a few packs of conversation hearts!
The designers did such a great job, didnt they?The CT had a lot of fun. The biggest complaint that Ive read was that they had to choose. To me, that speaks of how wonderfully the designers did!
Since its a new month, its time for a BAKE SALE! I dont know about you, but I just LOVE the bake sale! You never know what youre going to find in there, but its always something that you just cant live without!
Remember, that when you spend $10 in the store, you get an amazing grab bag created by one of our amazing designers.
Today, we have TWO guest designers and a NEW designer joining the team! Help me welcome Szabina, Dúnia, and Aga!
First up is our new designer, Szabina, of Sabees Creative World.
Heres how she describes herself:My name is Szabina Korsos, 26. I live in Hungary.
I always loved drawing, painting and doing creative things. I first learned about digital scrapbooking in 2008. I was fascinated by this hobby. I collected all my designing knowledge with no professional help and I learned how to use Photoshop on my own as well.
In my free time I like designing not only kits but putting my memories on digital or traditional pages. At the beginning I used to create 5-10 digital layouts per week, but I also became interested in traditional paper scrapbooking. During that time I was learning more and more about the newest techniques through online foreign courses and I started to combine these two methods into hybrid projects. Nowadays I do less digital pages than when I started, and if I feel like creating I turn to hybrid or traditional scrapbooks.
I love hand-made painted elements. Drawing and painting have been an important part of my life since my childhood. I attended art faculty at the high school and had private lessons by well-known painters. So I try to use my professional knowledge as much as I can in designing. The most important thing about my work is that 90% of my kits are made without commercial elements. I think many drawings and individual style make my designs unique.
Unfortunately digital scrapbook designing is not full time job for me. At present Im a desktop publisher. Its a creative job, and I like doing it.Professionally trained in art. Thats really cool, in my opinion.
Here are just a few of the amazing items available in her store:
One of our guest designers is Dunia, of Dunia Designs.
Our guest designer, Dunia had this to share with us:My name is Dúnia, 36 years old, I live in Brazil, with my husband, my son Yuri, my girls twins Eduarda and Rafaela and my two dogs Floquinho and Pantufa.
I'm addicted to scrapbooking, I'm a scrapper since 2006 and designer since 2009, but nowadays I'm so addicted to Project Life, I made it last year and I'm making this year too, it's so great to see all the memories in a book.
I'm also addicted to books, tv series and coca-cola.Project Life! Im doing Project Life! I love Project Life. Okay, calming down, so I can show you something she has available in her store:
Our other guest designer is Aga of Jimbo Jambo Designs. Make sure you check out her store! She has some great things in there!
While youre checking it out, make sure you check out her sale for you:
Wow! Its time to reveal Februarys Daily Download!
Last months Daily Download was brought to you by Connie Prince, and OH GOODNESS, after January here, it was a perfect kit!
Thank you, Connie for your beautiful kit! Remember, if you missed a download, you can purchase all of the pieces now.
This month, Monica, of ViolaMoni had provided a SERIOUSLY cute kit!
Remember, the links are only up for about 5 days. After that, theyre removed, so if you miss a download, youll have to wait until the next month to buy the kit!
Make sure you come back every day!
Oh, dont go away just yet! Im not done. Its Friday, so we have some official Fresh Baked stuff as well! The designers were serious busy bees this week!

Health Systems Administration
The MS in Health Systems Administration is designed to provide strategic skills for today's health care management. Now, as never before, health care is rapidly transforming. The pace of technology and innovation are changing how, when, and where health care is provided, and who is providing it. Concurrently, health care customers have high expectations for quality and responsiveness to their needs—delivered in a cost-effective manner.
To provide these strategic skills to health care management, the MS in health systems administration builds on a foundation of courses in policy and law formation, health care economics, innovation, and leadership. Additional options are provided through course selections, building an integrated program that meets the individual challenges of participating students.
The program is available online, allowing students to pursue their degree while maintaining full-time employment in locations around the world. Another distinct advantage is the diversity of our student population, allowing for creative discussion and comprehension of global health care issues and how these relate to the standards and practices of the American health care system. The ability to share information and ideas, and to contrast and compare strategies, allows students a level of creativity and scope of practice not found in the traditional classroom.
RIT provides excellent online learning support that leads the student through registration and use of distance learning tools. In addition, for select subject areas, the health systems administration program plans special learning sessions that blend presentation styles. This could be through attendance at seminars in locations throughout the country or on the RIT campus. These formats provide a combination of both distance learning and interaction with presenters who provide a strategic view of health care delivery models.

Raids are fun - heroic pugs are kind of like the purgatory that allows you to get into raid heaven.
As a new Wow player I found the game pretty rewarding for my time. I started around mid December 2010 and I am Heroic ready Pally Tank already.. I tried Heroics at 331 gear level and decided to get it together a little better first, no way was it supposed to be that hard.
Item level has increased a lot now, skill level too. I got my buffs, interupts, I know my rotation what it does, how to do more DPS and when to use WoG healing with my HoPo instead.. Still waiting for Cata Heroics to be fun.. There is so much going on in a fight that someone always dies, or we wipe. Some bosses are dependant on if you interupt in time..
Is this the challenge that is supposed to be fun and I just don't like this game? The success rate for me is low still, been playing only 2 months, but does it get fun? I like PVP at least, but Heroic dungeons have no reward for too many hours invested.. Just too many wipe wipe wipe, oh you finally didn't stand in the stuff hooray.. we took it finally ugh
SO TRUE...as a tank I get asked to do heroics a lot. They are such a pain at the moment and I find they sap my energy fast. Once you get raiding life is good again, Cata's raids are damn good.
Thanks to both of you.. It helps to know others can grow quickly fatigued by Cata Heroics and move past that to have fun again. I have some time in those dungeons still, I am going to try and enjoy it somehow.
I am going to tell you what I hate hearing but doesn't make the statement less true. Run heroics with guild members or a group of people from your server that you know. Build a group of trusted friends you can run with and only pug when you must. Your success rate will go up and things are usually much more fun when you can run with people you know. I'm sick of being told this but it is unfortunately the truth. There are many players lacking in common sense or awareness. Some are bad and some are just inexperienced and slowly getting better. I'm probably being to kind here but I have a lot of patience when it comes to what I hope/pretend are new players. All that being said, pugging heroics can often be torture.
I just dont PuG HC's anymore to be honest and if i really have to i always DPS never tank!
i just got sick of being told it was my fault as the tank when half the DPS are standing in stuff im the only one interupting and everyone just shouts
JUST GO when i try to explain why they wipe
Pugs are horrible get a nice guild an it becomes fun
I've kind of starting tanking pugs again on my DK which gearing up nicely and I wanted to speed up getting rep; but it's not an everyday thing. I have to be in the mood, and I've gotten to the point of "I take no crap, period"; one peep out of some dps'r or healer and I leave, find another tank. Frankly, I have other toons I can do things on and listening to some fail 15 year old dps'r complain cause I didn't save them from themselves isn't one of them.
However, I'll pug anything on my hunter or mage; dps is just mindless pew pew compared to tanking or healing.
To be honest, I don't understand all the fuz about heroics. If it's not challenging it's not fun. If you can run through it it's not fun.
Having made that statement. Before the patch I could already run heroics pretty easily and with only 1 or 2 wipes with our guild. Now, after the patch, I run them without CC with the guild. In a pug it depends on the pug. A lot of times they are very easy with a little CC and we can run them without a wipe.
Sometimes I have a player that won't listen. 2 Days ago I had one that wanted to pull before I did. I warned him 1 time. The 2nd time I waited with charging until he was dead. The 3rd time also. After that he didn't pull anymore. I don't accept crap. Usually that works great.
Sometimes I find myself a nice group and I can even learn a few mechanics to others. With the right persons they are gratefull and I like it.
All in all, heroics are easy once you understand the mechanics. If you don't, make sure you learn them and don't charge in without knowing what to do. Than heroics are fun. If you can't make it in heroics you can't make it in raids beceause the mechanics in there usually require more concentration and you need more situational awareness.
It's important that you get satisfaction from being the best and / or from completing those heroics.
Sorry, can't make it better for you. If you don't like that, than don't pve.
You've played for two months and realized you haven't mastered the entire game so therefore it is too hard. Others have played for over six years (many of which haven't mastered the entire game).
Perhaps you would prefer a game like chutes and ladders. You roll a dice, you win. You roll a dice, you lose. There is nothing you can do to change the randomness. There is no strategy or skill which leads to repeatable success.
A game with challenges in it for you to overcome are there for the purpose of overcoming. By improving yourself, your methods, your skills, your strategies... you reduce the randomness in the encounter and shift the odds of success in your favor. When I first ran heroics right after hitting 85 at 329 item level, we wiped a lot. Hell, most of the heroics were actually harder then as well. We overcame the challenges. Now when I run with similar groups we can defeat the encounter even when the most random of factors occurs such as the tank disconnecting. Experience, skill, and strategy make what was challenging significantly easier over time. It is no longer a random roll a dice and we lose.
Overcoming challenges is what people enjoy about this game.

If anything I would say to find a guild and try to run heroics with them first while you hone your skills and get better gear.
The reward is not the points you gain, or the items that drop. The reward is conquering a challenge you didn't before. The advantage of an ever growing and changing world is the challenges are limitless. When you conquer one challenge, there is another before you.
I didn't beat Super Mario Brothers the first time I turned on my NES when I was younger. However, I gradually got better, progressing further and further until I finally beat it. You get to the end of that level and run into a little castle and fireworks shoot off, and then you move on to the next level, the next challenge.
The difference in this modern age of gaming is that sometimes, particularly with the MMO genre, the challenges don't have to stop once you "beat the game". There is more and more challenges presented to you through patches or expansions, and because of that you continue playing. For the enjoyment you feel when you overcome those obstacles placed before you.
That's what makes an MMO enjoyable. You conquer your challenge and then you move on to the new ones presented for you.

I actualy find it verry entertaining as a tank to do heroics. This because I always take my own healer with me (He's my heal$%#*@). This way when the dps decides to pull before I do this will result in one high repair bill for that guy.
But I see your frustration. The thing is you can pretty much ignore any critisism which is in the form of : Your doing this wrong. Unless someone tells me how to do something better so I can improve myself I just ignore them.

I have done a complete 180 thanks to your input here on this thread and searching the forums for others input. Part of the problem is all the QQ out there makes you as a new comer think something is really wrong, but nothing is wrong it isn't too hard. Just mechanics.
I entered Deadmines last night with my guild, we are taking all the bosses on the first tries.. My problem before last night was 2 x melee, 1 x ranged, me and healer. We were healing too much and not taking the dungeons down in time, we used our 2nd ranged instead and we honestly are a little bored for some of it. Although we were pwned by trash twice that is a little embarrassing. But funny
Now I realize the problem isn't Heroics are too hard... It is that Cata normal dungeons are too easy and they do not prepare a new player for what is really coming. You don't learn to carefully inspect your team, check combat logs and to build strategies. When you learn this is the correct path and that everything Heroic is meant to be a challenge or puzzle each team has to personally solve their specific mechanics for it suddenly becomes fun.. I am counting the minutes until we go back in the dungeons today... =}
P.S. Game told me to move on from Heroic Dungeons last night tho. LOLZ
Raid Ready =}
@ the OP. You also have to keep in mind that A LOT of the QQing is coming from the people that started in Wrath. Wrath took the game and dumbed it down... a lot, when I could tank a Heroic dungeon in Fury spec something is wrong. In Cata blizz took it back to the "shit is gonna be hard" style and I love it. Although I hate having to tell someone what CC means and how to use it, I still have fun.
I wont tank a heroic PuGs unless I know the healer(s), I just dont trust them enough to know their class. But I will switch to tank if one drops just so I can get r done.
The dungeons aren't THAT much harder than cata...
What seems to be making heroics no fun is pugging them. I just got out of one I did for one of my guildies, just me and him, and it was a nightmare.
We get dropped into deadmines to replace a dk and warrior, ironically enough, who apparently started fighting about some gear drop off the first boss and promptly left. We clear up to the second boss, the healer gets the achievement for exalted with one of the cata factions and immediately drops group right before the pull.
Re queue and the next healer takes one look around "sorry guys, I don't want to do deadmines tonight" and drops.
The next healer does decent enough that we one-shot boss 2, but when we get to boss 3 it seems like nobody but me has ever been here before. The pally healer got eaten 3 times by reap, because he was standing right next to the boss and didn't notice the very obvious warnings that reap was about to go off. After each wipe I proceeded to show him where to stand, and what he should run from. I don't normally do it, but /votekick. Pretty sure we lost a dps at some point at third boss with the pally healer.
Thank goodness we kicked him, the next healer was sporting tier shoulders, knew all of his stuff, and the only semi-wipe was on trash after third boss, where I was tanking the first pull, both warrior types were in the middle of their extra damage routine, and my shockwave went off a second to late to stop a double ragezone right on top of me. I got gibbed about an eyeblink later, halfway out of the zone (I almost made it!). But even then the healer survived and one dps almost survived. One shot everything else and it was absolute heaven.
But I'm not sure my guildie getting the valor points was worth the first half of that dungeon. I usually don't queue without a healer I know for that very reason, but I didn't want to deprive my guildie of having to put up with a pug tank and a pug healer.
Yes i also got my share of tank leaving after Slabhide in Stonecore - he just came for mount drop
I also wear tabards to boost my standings with fractions - who isn't?
But to leave group in a middle of fight just because i got Exalted... that is absurd.
My standing on this:
I invest my time to run heroic. I will stay until the end unless i absolutely must leave. Which i try not to.
I won't leave group, i can see when i am close to Exalted and bring another rep tabard with me or i just don't care if i got it...
Simply - some people just don't have the same degree of responsibility as others. That's it.

Yeah when I first started I didn't want to drop pug groups because even though pugs mostly are full of people who can't find a guild that actually wants them sometimes you get good people hurt in the mix. But this game has taught me to worry about me and not waste my time with others.. Going around giving advice to flat out be a jerk is probably bad but hey it is what it is. If you want to drop group for any reason just drop the group you don't owe anyone anything. If you should be penalized you will get a 15 or 30 minute time out from the game itself so you will have to pay the price for leaving.
A lot of it comes down to your group. If your purely running randoms by yourself it really is luck of the draw. Sometimes you'll end up in a group where everyone knows how to play their role and the dungeon will be a breeze. Other times you'll get grouped up with four players that show no signs of intelligent life and the dungeon will be a long and painful grind, if you choose to stay. I guess that's the key, you can always leave. At works you'll have 30mins to spend doing something else. If you're a tank you still have the luxury of instant queues.
With the standard of pugs at the moment, Blizzard really need to up the Call to Arms bribe in order to make it worth my while. Personally I've noticed a drop in the standard of DPS in the random dungeon finder over the last week or two. It's surprising how much easier dungeons are when you have two or more DPS pulling 10k plus.

Taking a trip is always exciting, but sometimes you get so caught up in where you're going that you forget to take care of important details at home. The better you prepare for your vacation or family trip, the more you'll be free to enjoy yourself. You don't want to find yourself on the plane suddenly remembering that you forgot to pack some essential item or that you left the heat on. Before a trip is the perfect time to do some straightening up and cleaning around the house relying on household products to get the job done. Wouldn't you rather return to a nice clean house rather than a mess? Here are a few suggestions.
This is a good time to throw out some items you don't need. For items that are in decent condition you could either sell them or donate them. If you've been thinking about rearranging some furniture or doing some redecorating, you might want to make a few changes before leaving for your trip. You don't have to go overboard, but if you make the changes now you can view your home with a fresh perspective when you return. Then you can decide if you prefer the new arrangement or the way it was.
Once you've straightened up, you might want to do some environmentally friendly cleaning. That way, your home will look and smell nice and fresh when you get home. White vinegar is great for removing odors and stains. Another inexpensive household cleaner is baking soda. This is especially good for deodorizing the refrigerator while you're way. Lemon juice can also be great for cleaning and leaving everything smelling fresh.
If you make a list well in advance of your trip, there's less of a chance you will forget anything. Whether you write it down in a notebook or on an app on your smartphone, you can start the list a couple of weeks ahead of time and add to it at your leisure. The only danger to this approach is that you'll end up making the list too big. This brings us to another principle of stress free travel -packing light.
Most people tend to over pack. Before you pack your entire wardrobe, try to be realistic and consider what you are likely to need on your trip. If you plan to do any clothes shopping on your trip, this will also reduce the amount that you need to take with you.
By making the necessary preparations ahead of time, you can make it more likely that things will proceed smoothly on the day you embark on your journey. Leaving everything till the last minute, on the other hand, almost guarantees that you'll feel stressed out and end up forgetting something.

Deciding to go traveling with a baby can be a big decision in itself. There are so many things to worry about such as where to go, whether to fly or drive and whether you will even enjoy traveling with a baby. Once you have sorted all this out, there is still the question of what you need to take. The answer – quite a lot!
Here are some of the items I suggest packing when you are traveling with a baby.
The biggest question parents of babies ask themselves is whether to take a stroller or not. In general, I recommend that you do. However, this is definitely the time to leave your bigger, bulkier strollers at home and to do some research into the best umbrella stroller to take with you. A lightweight option that still lies back so that your baby can sleep on the move is the best choice.
There is no need to take a thousand diapers with you unless you are traveling far off the beaten track. Diapers are generally easy to find in cities anywhere. I suggest you take enough for the first couple of days so you do not need to worry about it as soon as you arrive at your destination.
If your baby is bottle fed, then you need to take a few bottles, formula and cleaning equipment. If you are traveling domestically then you do not need to take much formula as you can buy it as you go. However, if you are traveling internationally, I suggest taking enough formula for your entire trip. Formula quality varies, and if your baby has a favourite one then they may not be happy having to switch to something else. I also like to travel with this bottle warmer. If your baby expects warm formula, then you will need something to warm it on the go.
A portable crib is invaluable when traveling. Although many hotels may have a crib available, many will not. Even if the hotel has cribs, they often can't guarantee that it will be available when you arrive. For this reason, I always travel with my own. For road trips, I have a cheap portable. When flying, there are some great lightweight travel cribs that you can take with you. Here are some suggestions.
As you would already know, babies get dirty. Always travel with lots of spare changes of clothes. Take several changes on board flights with you as well and always be prepared for the worst.
There is no reason that you can't still have a relaxing vacation with your baby. The best way to ensure this happens is to be prepared! Hopefully by taking the items above, you will have an easy and fun vacation.

Family vacations are something everyone looks forward to. Traveling with kids, however, can be challenging and expensive. Setting up a savings account is a great way to ensure all your tracks are covered before setting out on an adventure with the whole family. Looking into options like a market linked gic will help gain you the most funds while protecting your initial investment. If they're not happy everyone feels stressed out, especially on long car trips. It doesn't have to be that way! Planning ahead and bringing some simple, basic items along on the trip makes getting to your destination fun and memorable!

Great Entertainment Items to Bring
Items you bring to keep everyone entertained don't have to be complicated or expensive. Here are some ideas to start with:
With these materials, you can play traditional games like hangman, connect the dots or tic-tac-toe. You can also use printed maps to play the license plate game. Look for license plates from each state. When you see a plate, color in the state or make a check mark for each state. The person who finds license plates from the most states in a limited time wins.
Another fun game is searching for different models of cars and checking them off as they're found. I Spy is another fun game, where you find things along the way and have others guess what you've found. Kids love these games. They help increase awareness of surroundings and help to improve skills like memory. With yarn, older kids may enjoy crocheting or knitting. Younger children love using yarn for homemade lace-up cards.
Games To Play With No Supplies
If you're looking for games that require no accessories, here are some to try:
A game where one person whispers a story and the next person whispers it to his seatmate and so forth until everyone has heard it. The last person repeats the story out loud. This causes laughs because the story is usually different from the original.
The Alphabet Game
Find items that begin with letters of the alphabet, or search for alphabet letters on signs or license plates. Go from A to Z and the first person to spell the alphabet wins.
Restaurant Game
Everyone thinks of their favorite restaurant like McDonald's, Burger King or Taco Bell. Search for signs, billboards or radio commercial advertisements. The one who finds their restaurant name the most times is the winner.

Oh sure, there is Rio with the beaches of beautiful boys playing foot-volleyball and impeccable bikini clad girls. The city lets its hair down for Carnival and shakes everything a little harder to a Samba beat like no where else. What the World Cup in 2014 should have highlight for everyone is there is far more to the country that Rio. It is a big place and not everything is about the beach, football maybe, but it is more than a beach.

There is the lung of the world, the Amazon basin rainforest. The cultural centers like Salvador. The economic engine of Sao Paulo. The natural wonder of Iquazu Falls. Even the beaches that stretch along its nearly 7500 km of coastline give a few more options than planting a chair in the sand at Rio. There is a whole diverse world to check out here and you aren't getting there by sitting on your couch.

You aren't going to get anywhere fast in Brazil without hitting the skies either. This is a big place. Did a mention it was a whole world. Nope, you are going to be winging around if you are going to see anything. Don't you worry either, flying in Brazil doesn't require getting on some chicken bus equivalent airline. This is the real world here, not some bad 1960's movie. TAM, the biggest airline in Brazil, is a full bells and whistle deal. Full reclining business class, executive lounge, cover the whole country kind of happiness experience.

Some crazy people may tell you that you aren't going to really get to know the country by flying. Sitting on a bus for 30 hours is the only way "really" meet people. Last time I checked the people next me on an airplane were just as real as the people on the bus. I just happened to have an extra day enjoying my destination instead of trying to sleep sitting up while my whole world bounced up, down and side to side. That extra day of being jostled on the bus isn't really meeting people any more than having a pleasant conversation at 30,000 feet.
Explore Brazil beyond the beaches or at least explore more beaches but get out there and sample the world.

If you're in love and looking for a romantic adventure, you don't have to look too far to find several ordinary activities that can be transformed into something extraordinary.
It' doesn't matter whether you're strolling along a beach hand-in-hand, visiting a restaurant, or just admiring a city's architecture – everything is that much more magical and has a crazy rose-tinted glow to it when you're in love.
Some people prefer grand gestures as a way of showing their love, while others prefer to demonstrate their adoration for another person in more subtle and consistent ways. Whatever route you choose to take, there's no doubt that there's a little bit of a romantic in all of us.
If you're looking for some romance and happen to live in Australia (or you're traveling there and looking for some romantic spots), check out a few recommended romantic spots and activities for you and your lover.
Whitsunday Islands
Picture white sandy beaches and crystal blue water. This is what lies in store when you visit the Whitsunday Islands in Queensland, Australia. It's a popular yachting destination, so you could cruise around on the waters while soaking up the sun, or take a walk along the sand, kayak, sail, and even pitch a tent overnight. If you'd prefer more luxurious overnight accommodation, there's a resort where you and your partner can relax and enjoy the various activities on offer.
Great barrier reef – safari snorkel in the middle of the ocean
Snorkel through the Great Barrier Reef and witness the stunning marine life and array of coral types. Board a vessel at Cape Tribulation beach and head out into the waters to snorkel the immaculate areas of the Reef. There's nothing quite like the combination of nature, sun, sand and ocean to help you reconnect with serenity and make you appreciate the beauty of life a bit more.
Fraser island – island made of sand
Located in Queensland, Fraser Island is a World Heritage site, and is the largest sand island in the world. The island also consists of rainforests and swamps and sand dunes. More of an adventure than anything else, you and your partner can venture through the fresh water lakes, the rainforest and experience the assorted wildlife.
Surfers paradise
Known by some as the "Miami of Australia", Surfers Paradise is a suburb that serves as the hot-spot of entertainment and tourism in the Gold Coast. Expect to see fancy cars and palm trees, and to ride the waves, play frisbee, picnic on the beach or relax on the soft sands. There are tons of restaurants and cafes to choose from, and there are also spas that you can visit to rejuvenate after a long day of surfing and sun.
Balloon trip in the outback with champagne
For the ultimate way to relax, float with the clouds in a hot air balloon as you sip on champagne and take in the spectacular scenery. Spot a red kangaroo, and take aerial photographs of the stunning sights below.
A drive along the gold coast
This coastal city has so much on offer, it's ridiculous. You can enjoy the vibrant nightlife on offer, and party until you drop. If you're traveling in a car, you and your partner can stop off at Broadbeach, snorkel, and end the day off with a romantic picnic accompanied by wine or champagne.
Walk up Sydney harbour bridge
Get your gear on and prep yourself for the climb ahead. Ascend the arches and take in the gorgeous view of Sydney. When you eventually reach the summit of the Sydney Harbour Bridge, you'll have an amazing 360 degree view of the harbour, the city and all the surroundings.
Have a fancy dinner at Crown Casino and Entertainment Complex
Stay overnight at the 5-star hotel, enjoy the water features, go shopping at various luxury brand stores, and gamble at the casino after dinner casino. Like the games at Euro Palace, Crown Casino has a massive game offering, including slots and popular table games like blackjack and roulette.
