Jul 11th 2008 12:40PM RESPONSE FROM DEVS AT WARHAMMER ALLIANCE
Hey guys,
It's important to remember a few key facts:
A) The game is still in development, it's important that we make the right decisions to have a successful launch.
B) We want to make a great game, not a good game. I think we can all agree that playing a career that wasn't up to par with our standards doesn't accomplish that.
C) Capital cities require you to capture 2 of the 3 campaigns. We'll have a much more informative explanation of how city capture works but it's now even more challenging and requires the cooperation of the entire realm to march to the gates of your enemies city and conquer their king, which in the end was always our goal.
WAR, while now different, is more exciting and engaging then ever before and the cities and careers provide an experience to look forward too
PunkBuster cannot automatically do anything, including boot a user from the server.
It is purely for monitoring purposes and alerting CSR's of any suspicious activity.
It still requires a member of our Customer Support team following our guidelines for support to take any action against an account.
Many of us have played FPS's to be booted from the server for no apparent reason. This will not be the case here as any instance will still require an investigation, it simply allows us to hone in on possible troublemakers faster than ever and keep your RvR and PvE experience as fair as possible.
And nobody said that these classes won't ever see the light of day...just not the light shown on release. The capital cities, classes, all that can come back in future updates.
Age of Conan hits exclusively open beta on May 1st {Massively}
Apr 17th 2008 7:23PM @Being spoiled: Can't be helped. Regardless of how much internal support Blizzard already had because of their offline game brands, people have seen what a MMO with enough polish and love can do, and the benchmark has been set. First impressions are a big thing, yes, but if the dev has a prior rep, that's going to play a big part too, and AO is still a big sore in the eyes of those that were around for it's launch. If they really wanted to make amends, they're going to have to do better than this.
@Limited content: Glass is half-full or half-empty. We won't really know if either of us is right until the game launches.
@Limited space size: I agree with this, but good Lord...30Gs for the main install is outrageous. That's like 6 DVDs...you could fit every other mainstream MMO out there and their expansions with that much space and have 30x more content. I can only imagine a few months after the game launches that people start crying that their hard drive hates them with a passion for having to read so much data everytime they play.

text: St. Paul Shoplifting Lawyer Arrested for shoplifting in St. Paul or Minneapolis? Shoplifting is defined as the unlawful removal of goods from a retail establishment such as a grocery store, clothing store, equipment store and others. Whether this theft crime was intentional is the question posed to the court in the event of a shoplifting charge, and it can sometimes be quite challenging for a prosecutor to sufficiently prove that the defendant knowingly committed the act. Penalties for Shoplifting The penalties for shoplifting may vary greatly depending on the amount of goods stolen. Shoplifting of less than $500 in goods is a misdemeanor and can result in up to 90 days in jail, and fines of up to $1,000. Those who shoplift goods totaling between $500 and $1,000 may be charged with a gross misdemeanor with up to 1 year in jail and fines not exceeding $3,000. Stealing items with a total value ranging between $1,000 and $5,000 face felony charges with up to 5 years in prison and $10,000 in fines. Those who shoplift between $5,000 and $35,000 in goods also face a felony in addition to up to 10 years in prison and fines not exceeding $20,000. The most severe penalty for shoplifting is a felony and occurs when the value of items stolen exceed $35,000, or include firearms. Those convicted of this type of theft crime may face up to 20 years in prison in addition to fines up to $100,000. Choose the Proven Defense of Mohammad, Schiks and Jaafar, P.A. The firm has worked for years to protect the rights of all clients throughout the process who have been charged with a shoplifting offense throughout St. Paul and Minneapolis. Our firm has consistently provided invaluable guidance, legal support and court representation for many satisfied defendants, and could play an integral role in securing your freedom. We understand that it can be very difficult to prove intent in shoplifting cases, and we will work hard to present a case that provides sufficient doubt is established as to your guilt. Contact a St. Paul shoplifting lawyer if you have been charged with shoplifting and want to discuss your legal options for defense.

Bristol Zoo is the perfect setting for the evening showing of this American adventure thriller film as it is currently hosting DinoZoo; an exhibition of 12 large moving, roaring and water-spraying dinosaurs.
Of the 12 impressive dinosaurs now at Bristol Zoo, a giant tyrannosaurus rex, allosaurus, ornithomimus and the long-necked brachiosaurus will be fully operational throughout the duration of the film.
Two screenings of Jurassic Park, which has a PG certificate, will be held on Saturday, August 18, at 5.30pm and 8.30pm. All money raised from tickets sales for the event will used tosupport Bristol Zoo's charitable objectives.
Chris Page, head of guest services at Bristol Zoo, said: "Our open-air film night offers a totally unique viewing experience in which guests will be emerged in the Jurassic world of Bristol Zoo, surrounded by our lifelike dinosaurs."
The film's storyline centers on the fictional Isla Nublar near Costa Rica in the Central American Pacific Coast, where a billionaire philanthropist and a small team of genetic scientists have created an amusement park of cloned dinosaurs.
Bristol Zoo's outdoor cinema night takes place on Saturday, August 18. For tickets and information, visit www.bristolzoo.org.uk/whats-on. Tickets cost £8 for adults and £5 for children and concessions. Discounts apply for Zoo members.

Bristol Zoo Gardens is a conservation and education charity and relies on the support of its guests to fund its animal conservation work in the zoo and with endangered species around the world, which help save wildlife from going the same way as the dinosaurs - extinct.

Alkana's Nine-Year 9/11 Survey Of Students Is Full Of Surprises
Published: December 18, 2012History's Linda Alkana has taken a long, careful look at what CSULB students think about the 9/11 tragedy in a survey full of surprises.
Alkana, a member of the university since 1983, began surveying her History 101 class on critical thinking every semester from two days after the attacks to the present with the goal of measuring what students really knew. "How students today understand something that happened when they were in middle school (and have never been taught) contrasts markedly with how their older brothers and sisters who were closer to events understand 9/11," she said. "I have around 900 responses from the nine-year period which I used to write 'What Happened on 9/11? Nine Years of Polling College Undergraduates' published in the August 2011 issue of The History Teacher".
In her article, Alkana addressed the evolution of student perceptions about the day that changed their lives. "Because of the free-form nature of the questions, it became important to develop some guidelines to interpret the answers," she wrote. "Evaluating over 850 ripped notebook pages and deciphering handwriting and misspellings was a challenge."
After reading through the responses several times, however, she began to notice some patterns that could make the information useful to history teachers.
"I began to realize that the students defined 'what happened' by whom they thought was behind the events," she said. "By the third anniversary of 9/11, it became obvious that the answers to `What happened on 9/11?' differed considerably between the students who were young adults on 9/11 and those who experienced the events of Sept. 11, 2001, at a younger age. Over the course of the survey, it also became apparent that differences seemed to reflect students' exposure to major headline events and popular culture."
She noted that "very few of the 800-plus students, even those who were in elementary school in 2001, remark that they learned about 9/11 in a history class. Those who were younger in 2001 apparently grew up in a context where others assume that they `knew' what happened on 9/11, but very few of them had been taught this recent history in school. Their answers reveal their ignorance and confusion."
Consequences are important to critical thinking so Alkana asked her students what they thought would happen. Whom did they think was responsible? Over the years, she was surprised to find how differently the students defined what happened by the consequences they perceived stemming from the event. In terms of a "critical thinking" error, they began to mistake consequences for causes. Furthermore, what they thought happened on 9/11 soon began to reflect world events and even personal experiences they later were exposed to.
For many of her students, the consequences of the attack translated to restrictions on commercial flight. "Thus they blamed lax security as a cause of 9/11," she said. Alkana noticed how students initially blamed Osama Bin Laden's plane attack and understood the war in Afghanistan to be a consequence. But very soon, attention shifted to the war in Iraq, and Saddam Hussein became responsible.
Some students wrote about how Bin Laden and Hussein were in on the 9/11 attacks together. There was even a suggestion that Iraqis flew the planes. Afghanistan returned to the students' radar after the death in Afghanistan of Cpl. Patrick Daniel "Pat" Tillman, an American football player who enlisted in the US Army in 2002. "As the surveys continued, respondents were younger and younger when 9/11 occurred," she said. "The younger they were in 2001, the vaguer their responses were when they took my survey as college freshmen. Few got beyond blaming generic 'terrorists.'"
Conspiracy theories also abounded, especially after the 2004 Academy Award-winning documentary "Fahrenheit 9/11" from Michael Moore that took a critical look at the presidency of George W. Bush. "The conspiracies seemed to depend on the U.S. letting down its guard and getting lax in its security, although some blamed President Bush," she said.
Alkana received her B.A. from UCLA and her master's and Ph.D. from UC Irvine, the latter in 1985. She has been teaching this Critical Thinking History course since its inception as a university requirement.
Alkana concluded "What Happened on 9/11?" with a cautionary note for tomorrow's history instructors.
"If we are to teach recent history, we need to appreciate how students understand the historical events around them," she wrote. "We cannot assume that when we talk about or teach 9/11, we are talking about the same event to all our students. Increasingly, 9/11 is part of the history curriculum, but if the responses from this cohort are any indication, students are still confused." She continued that "Confusion about a term that is used as a shortcut for political and social issues is reason enough for history teachers to ask their students what they know about recent history before attempting to teach it."
When President Barack Obama gave his speech regarding the planned troop pullout from Afghanistan on June 22, 2011, he thanked "intelligence professionals and Special Forces (who) killed Osama Bin Laden, the only leader that al Qaeda had ever known." Obama remarked that this "was a victory for all who have served since 9/11," then quoted a soldier who "summed it up pretty well" by saying that "the message is we don't forget." Alkana pointed out that for the majority of the 800-plus students taking her survey over the last nine years, "'not forgetting' about 9/11 is clearly not the issue—most do not remember 9/11 with any degree of accuracy and few have been taught it. It is our challenge as history teachers to recognize this gap in their knowledge and to offer a remedy."

Unless you are me.
My friend called and told my parents. I am going to start seeing a shrink now. I spent the day in guidance, as she tried to pry stuff out of me, then I had to go to th nurse and I guess my mom has arranged for weekly checks with the nurse so she can make sure I haven't cut anywhere. Ick.
I will be getting an actual therapist soon... bigger ick. I know it's for the greater good but still...
Sorry to hear that, Whats happen to "FRIEND" thats supposed to keep their mouth shut. Or unless you wanted her to tell your parents . i dont know your sisuation.
Hugs, I just hope this turns out okay for you sweetie.
With much luv
This is just a preconceived notion of mine, but I think people who cut want to be found out. What do you say, since you've got the first hand experience? Is some part of you relieved to be getting help?
Habit is the ballast that chains a dog to his vomit. - Samuel Beckett
I think part of me did, deep down, I did hide underneath big sweatshirts and long sleeve shirts, but I do think that it is internal instinct trying to get help... somewhere, deep down...

Just keep on trucking, is all I can think to say. I guess maybe if you keep hitting life hard enough you'll beat your way through to Nirvana or something. *shrug* I dunno, its far to late to philoso... philosoph.. to spell the big word I want. Two a.m. loves me that way.
As for therapy and such... nurse thing sucks, but shes not so bad. Given that doesn't make it much better... My therapy experience is that so long as you get someone good your set. Confidentiality is a very good thing. It seems evil, I remember. People poking you, trying to get in your head... but once your in the room and your paents leave, and you've got someone who you can talk to, things seem to make more sense. Then again, Im not sure Im making sense. Screw art homework, (is that just wrong or is it just me?! Art homework, for pete's sake....) Im going to bed....
...your my favorite anchovie... but not on pizza....
Sorry to here that hun, like Beryl said, I think it was her, it's all for the best. To make you feel better. We hope. *hugs* feel better.

If you're like me and love all types of sports, you most probably have a bunch of apps to stay connected with your favourite teams and sports.
Let me introduce you to Sportlobster.com, the sports social network.
Four months after its launch at Wembley Stadium, it has secured a further $1,000,000 of funding to coincide with its September 2013 iPhone app launch.
Sportlobster is the first one-stop shop for sports fans, with the site bringing news, rumours, photos and videos, events scheduling, predictions and blogs into one online platform.
Co-founder and COO, Arron Shepherd, adds: "The recent $1,000,000 is necessary because of the rate at which we're growing. When we launched there were only three of us, now we're a busy team of nearly 20 programmers and marketing professionals and this is all before we bring in a large commercial team in 2014 once confident our user experience is optimised."
Shepherd and Meikle, aged 26 and 28 respectively, are committed to improving the user experience of the site and Sportlobster has identified the need for an app for its users as currently (47%) visit the site via smartphone.
Meikle says: "The app is going to dramatically improve the experience of sports fans both in the way they receive relevant information and how they interact with fellow fans around the world."
One APP designed as a one-stop-shop to deliver all your sporting needs and desires, all in one location. Why hasn't someone done this before?
Sportlobster have spent a lot of time on their design and you can tell from their simple custom graphics and they have had the use in mind all the way with a fully functional APP with great social integration built in.
Sportlobster go on to say, "We are constantly evolving and we work hard every day to improve the user experience. Our biggest ambassadors are our users and we are convinced the leap in quality experienced with the launch of the app will ensure word spreads fast and user numbers rocket as a result."
Sportlobster's vision to change the way people connect through sport is quickly being realised. With continuous improvement and burgeoning user numbers, the sport social network is destined to become a permanent fixture on the phones and desktops of sports fans worldwide.

Hey guys. I have to tell you guys a story about my friend Heather. So I invited her over to play a bit, but she had no idea my HUGE cock friends were coming over. I thought she would like the surprise, but she really loves to suck and fuck. She had about eight inches in her mouth and ten in her ass. We fucked in every position an ass could be penetrated. The guys made me squirt like three times, and we swallowed every last cum drop they had to offer. Check it out.

Investigators say a 61-year-old woman was backing out of her driveway when she hit another woman walking by.
Nidia Acosta, 33, became stuck in the car's front tire.
Rescue crews rushed her to University Medical Center where she died.
Police say speed and alcohol were not factors.
Then Saturday morning, a man died after rolling his car over in Northeast El Paso.
Police tell NewsChannel 9 Adrian Vasquez was driving on Highway 54 when he veered off the road and hit a guardrail.
The 21-year-old then flipped over.
Investigators say he was not wearing a seatbelt and died at the scene.
No word if speed or alcohol were involved in the crash.

Advanced Materials and Material Processing
Many security and defense systems depend critically on materials that provide advanced structural, electrical, thermal, optical and other properties to enable their capabilities.
Today, material science is at the beginning of a substantial transformation, in which the traditional study of individual materials and their properties is being replaced by a far more integrated approach that will enable the advent of "advanced materials by design". This is based on understanding fundamental properties of materials across scales ranging from the atomistic level to the grain level and to the continuum level, and connecting these between scales and among classes of materials using methods drawn from informatics.
Through a combination of advanced experimental diagnostics and simulation codes applied across these scales, this will lead to multi-scale modeling and simulation tools that can share information across scales, as well as data standards and query tools that enable an integrated understanding among material classes and scales. ASU has an extensive set of faculty researchers with direct expertise in all these areas. As a result ASU's Security & Defense Systems Initiative, with partners in industry and government, can assemble exceptionally capable research and development teams that are able to help bring this transformational vision for advanced materials to reality.

I've always purchased seedlings for transplant from my local greenhouse but this year have decided to grow my own. Last year I purchased a 48" T8 Fluorescent fixture with a light reflector and Sylvania Gro-Lux 32W Wide Spectrum bulbs. My intent was to grow my own last year but time got away on me. My question is this - are the bulbs I have sufficient for growing tomatoes, peppers & cabbage? I have done too much research and have just confused myself. Please help! Thank you! |
Follow-Up Postings:
I use a similar set-up in my basement, but I use two 48" fixtures, side by side. Instead of true grow-light bulbs I use one cool-white and one warm-white bulb in each fixture -- cheaper and seems to work well. (Many years ago I used true grow-lights but the plants didn't grow well -- I don't know if they were throwing off some kind of light that was burning them or what was going on. But that was 20 years ago so they've probably sorted that one out with modern bulbs.) Keep the tops of the plants within a couple inches of the bulbs for best light. I've never tried cabbage under lights but have started broccoli -- unfortunately for them they had week stems and succumbed to wind damage pretty quickly when moving them outside. Peppers do extremely well under lights and I often grow hot peppers to maturity in the winter for something to grow. Tomatoes do extremely well for about 6 weeks, after that they quickly get leggy and weak so plant them 6 weeks before you intend to start hardening them off outside. BTW, the lights, at least the lights I use, give them no UV light (maybe true grow-lights do?) so be very careful when moving them outside because it would be like a person living in a cave all their life and then suddenly going outside to tan in the early summer sun :) |

Good advice, I start annuals, perennials, and veg. Also make sure they are getting 12-14hrs of light. I have mine set up on a timer, it just makes it alittle easier if you get busy. Cheryl |
- Posted by northspruce z3a MB CDA (My Page) on Mon, Mar 11, 13 at 8:43
You don't need full-spectrum. I'm sure Don's advice of one cool and one warm is sound, but I just use whatever and everything's been fine for the 10 years I've been planting indoors. IMO it's more important to use new bulbs each year, keep them close to the plants and the environment cool after sprouting, and don't try to crowd too many plants underneath. One fixture will only light about 8" and anything outside that will have to lean in. Also, the outside four inches or so at each end a fluorescent bulb produces less light than the centre. |

Hey Thirsty Dirt. Be careful. I accidentally had about 115 tomato plants last year, LOL! One thing I can suggest. Make sure you get yourself a small fan. Also, you can read until the cows come home on the growing from seed forum, if you have the time :) Your Gro Lux tubes should still be fine for this year, but I wouldn't waste my money on more of them if you decide to expand. (Which you will) Go with what everyone here suggests. |
- Posted by Thirsty_Dirt_77 3a (My Page) on Wed, Mar 13, 13 at 15:57
Thanks for the advice everyone. If my seed order arrives before the weekend I'll be starting everything very soon. I'm hoping to move stuff out the to greenhouse (if its completed!) mid may so I think my timing should be about right. And nutsaboutflowers, I hear ya on the 115 tomatoes! When I purchased plants from my local greenhouse I always ended up with way too many plants that I couldn't bare to throw out. This year my set up will allow me a maximum of 64 plants which will probably be way too much but it will give me a bit of leeway if everything doesn't do well. |
- Posted by intotheark 2b (My Page) on Sat, Mar 16, 13 at 14:00
motion will help tomatoes achieve a thicker stock, and actually encourages increased chlorophyll levels a slow fan for 5 mins. a few times a day, 16-18 hours/ day light is optimal, ward off damping off with weak chamomile tea or sprinkle cinnamon on the surface |
Sometime ago Jim Hole wrote about grow lights in the Edmonton Journal. He advised using T5 tubes. I forgot the reasons but T5 is what I will use if I start seedlings or grow young plants. Did anyone else read about this? Sengyan |
- Posted by northspruce z3a MB CDA (My Page) on Sun, Mar 24, 13 at 10:35
I guess the purpose of using T5 would be that they give more lumens on less watts. But they're nowhere near standard in North America and the bulbs cost more and I wouldn't even know where to buy a 4' ballast that took two bulbs. I have only ever seen them in short lengths for cabinet mounts etc. I have one for my fish tank canopy. I use the standard 4' ballast with 40W bulbs because everything is cheap and readily available. |
T5s will become the norm in the future. Many T12s and some T8s will begin being phased out this July in the USA. Of course, it's easy to find T5 ballasts on the internet, but at the moment, still difficult to find at a local store. The advantage of having one warm white tube and one cool white tube is that each supplies part of the light wavelength spectrum that plants use - in the red, and blue ranges. The red light is used more to encourage processes related to flowering. Really not needed for growing vegetatively, but certainly doesn't hurt. For seedlings, you will probably get more growth from 2 cool whites, rather than one of each. Plants use more of the blue spectrum than the red. You might find tubes that are rated at 6500K. They are essentially grow lights and might be within your budget. Rick |
Everyone's pretty much covered all your questions, so I'll just comment on the cabbage. I grow about four dozen brassicas every year (broccoli, cauliflower, cabbage and Brussels sprouts). This family of plants doesn't do well at all if they spend more than four weeks in a pot - that's from seed to final transplant to the garden, including time for hardening off. Brassicas that spend too long in pots will "button", not form a proper head. This weekend marks six weeks until the May Long. Because my garden takes a while to get into in the spring, I won't be starting any of mine until four weeks before the May long. If you're gardening in better soil or in a raised bed, you can go earlier, but not by too much. All the best! :) |

Opening night gave both Altoona High basketball teams a taste of some of the top competition in the WPIAL. The Lady Lions lost to perennial power Mt. Lebanon, 59-49. That was the varsity opener in the Wright Automotive North Allegheny Tip-Off Tournament. The game started at a slow pace, tied at the end of one, 6-6. Both teams came alive in the second, the Lady Blue Devils led, 23-21 at half time.
Mt. Lebanon raced out to a ten point lead in the 3rd quarter. Margie McCaffrey led the Lebo effort with 23 points, including 8 straight free throws to ice the game down the stretch.
Hartford bound Darby Lee was held to 4 points. That total was a combination of a very tall front line for Mt. Lebanon and Lee's foul trouble throughout.
Altoona will play Chartiers Valley at noon today. The Lady Colts beat Mt. Lebanon twice in the post season a year ago, but they were handled by North Allegheny last night. The game will be on wfbg.com. You'll see the link on this page.
The Mountain Lions were pounded by highly ranked Gateway last night in the Peters Twp. tournament, 74-48. Manny Span scored 20 points. They take on the hosts at 1:30 today.

Roberts said the industry is hoping to have international benchmarks on the safety process.
"We are now in the process of developing a consensus for all tomato food safety protocols," she said. "The purpose is to prevent someone changing the process for the benefit of their company."
This is the sixth year the tomato exchange has sponsored a food safety session during its yearly joint tomato conference.
The conference continues through Sept. 10 with grower sessions, Brown's yearly state of the tomato industry address, and yearly meetings of the tomato committee, tomato exchange and the Florida Tomato Growers Exchange.

Global Outreach Week Sept. 11-15
September 7, 2006
Seeking to build on a strong emphasis on world missions, Oklahoma Baptist University will host Global Outreach Week Sept. 11-15. The annual event is designed to present different facets of service and ministry from an international perspective.
"Global Outreach Week allows students at OBU to have their worldviews expanded," said M.W., coordinator for OBU's Avery T. Willis Center for Global Outreach.
GO Week begins with a chapel service on Monday, Sept. 11, at 10 a.m., in Raley Chapel. Dr. Mike Cahill, a linguistics field worker serving in Ghana, will be the featured speaker. Cahill works with the Summer Institute of Linguistics.
A medical missions forum begins at 7 p.m. Tuesday, Sept. 12, in Geiger Center 105-107. The open-topic panel discussion will include Dr. Lana Bolhouse, dean of OBU's School of Nursing; Dan Bivens, director of the Baptist General Convention of Oklahoma's Medical Missions Response program; and Steve Hollingsworth, president of His Healing Helping Hands International Ministries. The panel also includes Dr. Val Tramonte and Dr. Matt McClure, resident physicians with In His Image, a medical missions organization.
John Strappazon, collegiate ministries specialist with the Baptist General Convention of Oklahoma, will host "What's Your Final Answer" in the lower level of the Geiger Center at 9:05 p.m. Sept. 12.
Noted international medical missionary Rebekah Naylor will speak during Chapel on Wednesday, Sept. 13, at 10 a.m. in Raley Chapel. Dr. Naylor served as a surgeon and administrator with the Southern Baptist's International Mission Board in Bangalore, India.
Further information about global outreach opportunities can be obtained at the Global Outreach Fair, in Geiger Center 218-220 on Wednesday and Thursday, Sept. 13-14, from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m.
M.W. will be the final speaker of GO Week in a Chapel service on Friday, Sept. 15, at 10 a.m. in Raley Chapel. M.W. said his message will be an emphasis on God's call to witness.
During the week, students will operate a 24-hour prayer tent between Raley Chapel and the Geiger Center from Monday through Friday.

First impression on unpacking the Q702 test unit was the solid feel and clean, minimalist styling.
For work use, Microsoft Word and Excel programs pre-installed on the device are adequate for preparing short documents.
The Fujitsu LifeBook UH574 allowed for great mobility without being obnoxiously heavy or clunky. Its twelve hours of battery life did not disappoint.
The screen was particularly good. It is bright and visible from most angles, however heat is an issue, particularly around the Windows button on the front, and on the back where the battery housing is located.
My first impression after unboxing the Q702 is that it is a nice looking unit. Styling is somewhat minimalist but very effective. The tablet part, once detached, has a nice weight, and no buttons or switches are located in awkward or intrusive positions.

i live in a rural area in a 3bdrm home. the existing septic system is over forty years old and will fail one of these days, so i have already had an engineer design a new one (in a new spot) which has been permitted by the state and town.
i'd like to also replace my old system after the new system is in place so i will have two brand new septic systems for a total of 6 bdrm capacity. once i have two new septic systems i'd like to build an addition which would have a 3bdrm apt in it--essentially i'd have a duplex of sorts in the long run. i'm wondering how best to approach the town about this. the home directly north of me has several apts in two buildings, (possibly not legal) as does the site two doors south, which has three mobile homes sharing a legal ten bdrm capacity septic.

Everything will depend on your local zoning ordinances for your property and the separate septic system regulations that your health department has. Here, what you are proposing would never be allowed on any normal "homeowner" or "estate" sized lot. You would have to have quite a lot of acreage, and would be required to split it into separate lots, even if you retained ownership of all. A single "normal" sized property would have to be zoned for multi family dwellings to even consider it. And the health department would not allow two active septic systems on one property, even if they were serving one larger single building raather than multi family structures. A new septic system would have to be designed for the larger home, not adding a different system to serve the additional bedrooms. There will be a lot of very specific hoops to go through for what you want to occur legally. It might get pretty ugly if your neighbors have done their remodeling without municipal or health department approval. Bringing that to the authority's attention as a rationale for them approving your project would likely backfire. You've got your work cut out for you, and the first step is to stop at your local codes office. |

Also, just because you have one now doesn't mean they'll let you just put one back. Perc test standards have changed over the years - they may not even have done one on your original. Have you had one done? |

Check the requirements, and ask your ISP (rackspace.com? laughingsquid.net?) if they allow it or will load it up for you. It's a decent program, but like any server-based freeware, not exactly easy to get going. Core requirements: * A web server with permissions that allow you to run custom CGI scripts * Perl, version 5.004_04 or greater, configured for your web server * An FTP program to upload the necessary files to your web server * Any standard web browser on Windows, Mac OS, or Unix/Linux with J/*ava*script and cookies enabled * Support for the DB_File Perl (Berkeley DB) module OR the MySQL database & DBD::mysql |
I think I will have them do the install for me, the host does support the requirements. Perhaps sometime at the end of the month. |
I've opted out from moveable type and instead went with an ultimately more expensive but highly controllable discussion center. I didn't have to install anything and just link to it from my website. However, it is not an immediate "touch and go", there's been a lot of programming and adaptions to make it fit to my mold. This has much more possibilities than a blog. I used EZboard and went with the Gold package. |
Trudi, Thanks for letting us know what you ultimately did. I know you didn't get much feedback, but your experience helps educate others who happen to be reading this. |

I'm needing a new bank - I'm looking for one that has a nationwide presence preferably. I travel a lot and would like to be able to find branches.
My two biggest contenders are BankAmerica and USBank. I remember BankAmerica "fired" some firearm related businesses as customers a few years ago, so that kind of puts them out unless anyone heard about them publicly reversing that BS.
USBank around here seems gun friendly - never seen a posted one in KS or MO.
Any other suggestions?

I really love this idea. It would be fun to work on, cost next to nothing, you can personalize everything about it, and use up scraps and tiny bits of things left over from other projects. Always like to see good ideas for those beautiful Christmas cards I can't bear to throw out. Makes a great ornament for the tree, too. I love the two you made that you showed the pictures of here. |

Korean golf ball company one of several existing partners to expand partnership
DAYTONA BEACH, FLORIDA, February 7, 2012 - The LPGA today announced that Volvik, the Korean golf ball company, is now a Marketing Partner of the Ladies Professional Golf Association, the Symetra Tour, LPGA-USGA Girls Golf and the LPGA Teaching and Club Professionals. Highlights of the deal include exposure on LPGA Tour telecasts on Golf Channel, exclusivity as the Official Golf Ball of both the Symetra Tour and LPGA-USGA Girls Golf, and Presenting Sponsorship of the Teaching and Club Professional's Front Row Experience.
"A major goal of the LPGA is to showcase the colorful personalities and distinct style of our players," said LPGA Chief Marketing Officer Jon Podany. "Volvik's unique style of colored golf balls positions perfectly with our 'See Why It's Different Out Here' campaign. Volvik is a strong supporter of the LPGA and several of our players, and we love how they bring 'color' to the game."
The partnership includes the extension of Volvik's sponsorship of the "Volvik Shot of the Day" which will air on Golf Channel during domestic LPGA Tour telecasts.
Starting with the 2012 season, Volvik will launch marketing efforts on the LPGA's official developmental tour, the Symetra Tour. As one of the leaders in the colored performance golf ball market, Volvik will showcase its trademark product on the driving range at each domestic event as the Symetra Tour's exclusive range ball and will be included in gift packages at several tournament Pro-Ams. The partnership will also expand the company's support for Tour players. Volvik will have a team of five Symetra Tour professionals who will serve as brand ambassadors and will also introduce a player incentive award that recognizes a top player who uses Volvik in a statistical category for their performance throughout the season.
Volvik will also begin its involvement with the LPGA Foundation, the LPGA's charitable division, and has been named the Official Golf Ball for LPGA-USGA Girls Golf. In addition to gaining exposure through both digital and print outlets within Girls Golf, Volvik will uphold its philanthropic mission by donating 2,500 golf balls to be used at Girls Golf sites and programs throughout the year.
The deal also activates Volvik's partnership with the LPGA Teaching and Club Professionals (T&CP) and provides Presenting Sponsorship rights for the "LPGA Front Row Experience Presented by Volvik." The program offers fans the unique opportunity to get inside the ropes to demo equipment and receive free instruction from an LPGA Teaching Professional on the tournament driving range. Volvik will be provided with onsite signage and product sampling at participating events, as well as a digital branding and marketing presence on LPGA.com and through direct membership contact.
Earlier this month, the LPGA announced a 2012 tournament schedule that features five new tournaments – four of which are in North America – and $6 million more in tournament purses. Additionally, LPGA Commissioner Michael Whan announced that the Tour had renewed 10 of 11 corporate marketing partners with expiring contracts in 2011. The Tour also launched new ad spots last week featuring 12 different LPGA players as part of the continuing "See Why It's Different Out Here" marketing campaign, which continues to engage fans and showcase player personalities.

The Epic Grind
Filed under: Analysis / Opinion
Filed under: Analysis / Opinion
Never liked the way raid drops work myself.
Something WoW did that was revolutionary for the beginning levels was making quests "group friendly". Everyone gets a "head" off the boss etc. They found good ways to make group efforts = group rewards.
Unfortunately they didn't follow through when it comes to raids.
For an effort so difficult for many guilds it seems odd that just 1 person is rewarded for what is 40 people's hard work.
I'd like to see raid level bosses drop gems that everyone can pick up. In on a raid and the boss dies? You get a gem. Period.
You could then go to special crafters or traders in the world who would have need of said gems and would be willing to trade you an epic of your choice for X number of them.
You'd still have to put in an effort to kill the boss a few times, but at least you'd know you were making progress and that after X # of times you'd actually have something to show for it.
I don't mind if there are still some boss drops that are random, but for sure some kind of reward needs to be given to EVERY PERSON IN THE RAID if they are successful.
This would really cut down on the greed factor also, and might even be a solution to finally rid ourselves of DKP.
As you briefly mention, Sinnh, raiding guilds tend to get around the 40-people's-work-for-one-person's-reward thing via DKP systems. DKP awards points for (usually) attending and participating in raids, and when something you want finally drops, you can spend your points to get it. This way, even if you don't walk out of the instance with loot, you walk out of the instance with points - which seems nice in theory.
But of course, DKP systems are run entirely by guilds, and some are fair, most are complicated, and some are just scams. Always read your guild's fine print..!
Keep in mind that when you complete an End Game Raid like Molten Core you have dropped around 10 Bosses that drop 1-4 Epic items each. That nets the raid as a whole somewhere around 20 EPIC items. That doesn't include the blues and other "junk" that drops. I wouldn't say those are bad odds personally.

I am trying to decide if I want to use two colors of granite in my kitchen. I have white cabinets and stainless appliances.
I'm considering Antique Brown for my island and St. Cecilia for my perimeter. The two colors look beautiful together! The only reason I can afford the Antique Brown is because the piece is a remnant, otherwise I would be using St. Cecilia everywhere. Any feedback? |
Follow-Up Postings:
There are a few threads on mixing cabinet finishes and countertops that are worth searching for. I know I've posted at length on a few... My condensed version is that if your kitchen is large, and your island looks like a freestanding piece of furniture (versus cabinets) -- then go for it. If your kitchen is smaller and your island looks like kitchen cabinets, then don't. |
stacy64 - Wow ... so glad to see someone who's in the same dilemma as we were ! We were also in a similar boat, trying to decide to go for a single color or 2 colors for granite .. Please note that we have 2 cabinet colors .. antique white on the perimeter, and espresson on the island .. we were considering 2 granite colors, till we heard the warehouse guy mention that though this look is the 'in' thing & very modern these days, there's no gaurantee that it will remain the same so he told us, that we should consider going for 1 single color, if we need to have something that's timeless. This made us go cold feet, and now at the end we ordered antique brown throughout .. so that's my 2 cents on this :-) Good luck ! I'm sure you will need a lot of it .. it sure is a nerve wracking exp |
We did the same as crozzroad - dark (brown tan) granite on both our cream perimeter cabinets & cherry island. I also struggled with doing one or two colors - but thought one color would look a little less busy in our smaller space. |
I also think it depends on how large your kitchen is, and if it has to relate to another serving area such as a wetbar in a dining room or family room. Personally, I prefer two differnt kinds of countertop materials- granite and wood, or granite and composite, or granite and marble. I think having two kinds of granite in one area only looks as though you cheapened out and tried to use remnants. |
I like the look of 2 different granites.. but I am biased. I have absolute black on my countertops and typhoon bordeaux on my island. Everyone who sees it has liked ir as well (or at least they pretend to LOL) I don't have great pictures yet.. but here is a decent one for now.. I say GO FOR IT!! |
I considered using a marble for my island and a black granite for the perimeter and didn't only because I was worried about the etching and maintenance issues of marble and I didn't see a white granite that I liked. I agree with sweeby that if your kitchen is large enough it will look good. If you put a fancier edge on the island then it will also help to make it look more like a piece of furniture. I agree with gillylily: go for it. |
I like two granites as long as only one of them is busy or has a lot of movement going on and the other is solid or close to being solid colour. |

2 Stone Colors is nothing new - it looks WAY COOL when the colors coordinate with each other..... Gillylilly's kitchen is a great example... Stacy64 - IF you are looking at St Cecilia - have you looked at Uba Tuba Hopefully Boxerpups and Live Wire Oak will chime in - they both IMHO - hth kevin |
Thank you all for your feedback! Our home was built by a national builder and is what my husband and I call a "cookie cutter" house. My main reason for getting granite is because I strongly dislike my blue laminate counters and after living with them for 9 years I'm ready for a change! I did not put this info in my original post but my island matches my perimeter cabinets and based on some of the feedback it seems that using 2 colors wouldn't be recommended in my case. Yes/No?? Again, thank you all, I appreciate your feedback. |
- Posted by azstoneconsulting (My Page) on Thu, Feb 25, 10 at 11:00
You can do pretty much anything that turns YOU on... Perimeters are usually more reserved - Islands are where I'd advise you to do this on your Island: or WOWWWWWWWW!!!! Look at as many products as you can - Natural Stone, Solid Surface, Basically - WHATEVER YOU want to use and YOU have a liking for - hth kevin |
Go for it!! I went with cream cabinets on my perimeters with antique brown granite. My island is walnut stained with blanco romano granite. I love the contrast and there's also a nice colour flow, eg. my blanco romano has nice cream and dark brown spots that pick up the colours found on my perimeters. It's my own take on the black/white classic scheme, and 1 1/2 years later, I still love how it looks:) |
- Posted by jeannie_kitchen (My Page) on Thu, Feb 25, 10 at 11:22
We have two different granites. They are sort of mirror images of each other. The dark granite actually has a lot of movement, but unless you are right on top of it, it reads very simply. This is a weirdly distorted picture of our kitchen, but it gives a good view of the two granites: This is a close up of the darker granite, so you can see better how it looks: " My husband likes the two granites better than i do. I don't love the darker granite as much as the granite on the island, but I'm very glad that we didn't do the island granite in the whole kitchen, because it is very busy, and I think I would have grown tired of so much of it by now. |
Thank you Kevin. Part of me feels that way... do whatever I like! I'm leaning towards Antique Brown on my island and St. Cecilia on my perimeter. When I set the Antique Brown sample on my island, the lighting above my island really highlights the variations and I really like how it shows that off. When I set the sample on my perimeter counters it just looks black. Our parade of homes starts this Thursday so I'll be visiting some homes for ideas before I make a final decision. Hopefully that won't confuse me more. LOL! Thanks again! |

We're putting Silestone throughout next week. White north on the permiter on cherry in a medium stain. Olive green on the island with espresso stained cherry base. The island base doesn't look like furniture, but the stain is a big contrast in that they are VERY dark brown. Will it look dated in several years? I'm sure. EVERY kitchen does. Unless you do plain white cabinets with cararra marble...and even that look will look like "I put in a classic timeless kitchen in 2010." Sorry folks. Unless your design is so personal that it alienates buyers and you're selling your house soon...stop worrying and do what you want. You can't avoid a dated kitchen. Time marches over everything! |

We have 90's American oak cabinets inthe kitchen.we were thinking of putting granite on the counter and as a full backsplash.Is it a good idea to use different granites may be Giallo fiorito on counter and something yellow like rustic gold in back or is it odd. The floor has beige /earthtone color tiles and appliances will be stainless steel.Also there is a baywindow.Any suggestions would be helpful . |

Honors Courses
Most Honors courses parallel the Liberal Studies Program curriculum; therefore, they are not additional requirements needed to complete a degree program. Honors credits correspond to the number of hours for the course.
Honors courses differ from regular courses in that they are:
- Smaller than regular courses (not exceeding 21 students);
- Taught by specially selected faculty members who have been chosen in consultation with the dean, the director of Honors Advising, and department heads;
- Discussion-based courses, where lecturing is avoided;
- Courses designed with challenging, creative assignments that may lead to undergraduate research projects
For an idea of Honors courses offered, view the course offerings:

Instantly receive your FREE copy ofThe 4 M's of a Morning Routine the fastest way to start your Lifestyle Transformation.
"When I was informed I had eight weeks to gain 15 pounds of muscle while keeping my body fat in single digits I was freaking out! I thought it was impossible!!! The production made it clear there was only one guy who could help me achieve this… Luke Sniewski.
Within two weeks I felt a HUGE difference! All of a sudden I had more stamina, focus, energy, and was able to relax… everything clicked. Week after week I started seeing and feeling significant changes. I started doing things with my body I never thought I could do, always feeling safe and comfortable.
Six weeks went by and sure enough Luke was able to pull it off! The production was blown away with the results, and so was I! This was an amazing learning experience for me I had a blast training with Luke, and now Luke has become my lifestyle coach whether he likes it or not!"
Luke has empowered me with ability to reach my weight loss and transformation goals. Alongside the helpful and knowledgeable trainers at LEAF, Luke has transformed my body, mind, and outlook on health, nutrition, and training.
I have never felt so good while on my weight loss journey. I'm much more flexible, leaner, stronger, and overall much happier with my training program. My workouts are extremely efficient and never last longer than 1 hour.
The nutritional information I have learned from Luke is also priceless. The nutrition protocols keep me feeling satisfied, energized, and very motivated. I have learned great things about my body and how to really appreciate the ability to set a goal and achieve it.
Prior to meeting Luke I was a mess, health-wise. At 5'6" and 280 pounds I was in a bad place, and with both parents suffering from diabetes and a history of heart conditions I knew I had to do something or I'd be next…
...Six months from the start of [Luke's] program, I had dropped 100 pounds.
...Once Luke helped me recognize the drive I had within me, he provided the support, encouragement and resources along the way, and together we've done something quite extraordinary. Now I hope to stand as proof that anything is possible with the proper focus and motivation. And having the right friend by your side certainly helps.
Thanks, Luke.
With only eight weeks to go until her big fight, Holly came to me with an open mind and a willingness to work her butt off to get under her required fighting weight. She changed EVERYTHING about her nutrition although she was initially very hesitant to get started.
Within days she was seeing the results she needed to see to stay strictly within the program. Because Holly was already doing sport-specific training with her boxing coaches, we focused on her mindset and nutrition until we reached her required fighting weight.
With symptoms of Carpel Tunnel Syndrome and a few muscle imbalances that needed correcting, Skye's program began with focused corrective exercise and manual therapy. After her first body work session she told she had never felt that kind of release in her mid and upper back. She immediately felt better and excelled throughout each of her workout programs. She followed the diet regimen to the "T" and was more adamant about tracking progress than even me, which is hard to do.
I will never forget the day that her parents personally thanked me for empowering their daughter to reach heights they never thought possible. Changing her physical lifestyles changed every aspect of her life.
As a strict customer, I did some extensive research before looking for my next training program… Luke and I started working together around nine months ago. He understood my complicated agenda and my ambitious objectives. He took the challenge with me. Since the very beginning of the process, I found the key elements I was looking for: flexibility, inspiration, motivation, and knowledge. My workouts were challenging, and simultaneously I started to learn new perspectives in human health.
I also began to understand food at a much deeper level. My eating lifestyle has drastically changed. Luke also happened to be a healthy cook! So I even learned to cook a few dishes in this adventure.
I feel stronger, younger, and much wiser about my body. I am in an ever-changing transformation. There is still so much to learn about health and my own body. Luke became my partner in this on-going process. Together, we constantly set new objectives, and new knowledge continues to come with new results.
My name is Paul. I'm 42 years old. It was just another day in what was then my normal life; at a bar drinking a beer, eating unhealthy, getting fatter slowly but surely… At LEAF I found out I weighed 234lbs and had 28.4 body fat!! ... I told Luke that I had tried to get in shape before, but always failed. Right then Luke stopped me mid-sentence and said "you've never had a support team before." Wow! With that, I looked way down deep inside of me and found some inner strength and will power and held to this diet for the two weeks. When I returned to LEAF I had lost 11 lbs and I haven't even started working out!
It's now been 6 months since I started the LEAF program. I've lost a total of 42 lbs, I have muscle tone, and I feel better than I EVER have before.
Thank you LEAF for changing / saving my life!"
